Hi All,
I have the following challenge...
I need a column flag to represent the following.
If in a month the value for FTE is zero then a zero must be entered in the FLAG column for revenue and Fte. If in a month revenue and Fte values contain then a 1
Thank´s for help
Till
Solved! Go to Solution.
@Till , Try a new column like
new column =
var _1 = countx(filter(Table, [Date] =earlier([Date]) && [info] = "fte" && [value] =0),[Date])
return
if(_1 >0,0,1)
Hi Till,
You can do it in the Transform:
1. Enter your data
2. Pivoted only your 'Info' column
3. Add Flag condition:
4. Unpivote Column if you want to back your expected format:
Here is the query code, you can try it.
let
Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WMtQ31DcyVNJRKkotS80rTQWyDA2AQClWB0kyrQQkARM0wtBhitBhhKJDz8gUKm6MrskIyRpjZE1GUEETfDpM0BwWCwA=", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Date = _t, Info = _t, Vaule = _t]),
#"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Date", type date}, {"Info", type text}, {"Vaule", type number}}),
#"Pivoted Column" = Table.Pivot(#"Changed Type", List.Distinct(#"Changed Type"[Info]), "Info", "Vaule"),
#"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Pivoted Column", "Flag", each if [fte] = 0 then 0 else 1),
#"Unpivoted Columns" = Table.UnpivotOtherColumns(#"Added Custom", {"Date", "Flag"}, "Attribute", "Value"),
#"Reordered Columns" = Table.ReorderColumns(#"Unpivoted Columns",{"Date", "Attribute", "Value", "Flag"})
in
#"Reordered Columns"
@Till You can use this .
Go to power query and add a conditional col. give condition like this .
If (value >0,1,0)
Note : here i am doing if value is greater than 0 then give me 1, if not then give 0 for that .
If this post helps, then please consider accept it as the solution to help other members find it faster, and give a big thumbs up.
