Hey everyone
I'm trying to use first non blank in DAX. The value I'm trying to use is available in the other refresnced table but it's not working.
Almost tried everything.
Why is it not working for this case!!
First I tried this DAX first, trying to get the shipment number from FACT_TMS table
Both are giving blank.
Here below you can find the excel sample.

Appreciate your help. firstnonblank
Thanks

Solved! Go to Solution.
@ritanoori , if this is a new column this should work
minx(filter(Ref_TMS_Reports, Ref_TMS_Reports[Correct Voucher ID] = Fact_GL[New PONumber ]),Ref_TMS_Reports[SHIPMENT_NUMBER])
or
minx(filter(Ref_TMS_Reports, Ref_TMS_Reports[Correct Voucher ID] = Fact_GL[New PONumber ] && not(isblank(Ref_TMS_Reports[SHIPMENT_NUMBER])) ),Ref_TMS_Reports[SHIPMENT_NUMBER])

So glad I found this, thank you!!
FIRSTNONBLANK was returing values for certain Lookup cells but not the others...
