Generate Desired Table based on 2 tables
Hi all,
amitchandak Could you please help me?!
I have 2 tables in my desktop(see below) and I want to generate desired table based on the 2 tables I have in Power BI.
| Date | EmpId | Hours |
| 11/11/2021 | 100001 | 168 |
| 3/1/2022 | 100001 | 145 |
| 5/5/2002 | 100001 | 160 |
| 1/1/2022 | 100002 | 168 |
| EmpId | Name | Hours |
| 100001 | A | 160 |
| 100002 | B | 168 |
| 100003 | C | 164 |
Desired Output table should look like below:
| Date | EmpID | EmpName | Contracthours |
| 1/1/2022 | 100001 | Employee A | 168 |
| 1/2/2022 | 100001 | Employee A | 168 |
| 1/3/2022 | 100001 | Employee A | 168 |
| 1/4/2022 | 100001 | Employee A | 168 |
| 1/5/2022 | 100001 | Employee A | 168 |
| 1/6/2022 | 100001 | Employee A | 168 |
| 1/7/2022 | 100001 | Employee A | 168 |
| 1/8/2022 | 100001 | Employee A | 168 |
| 1/9/2022 | 100001 | Employee A | 168 |
| 1/10/2022 | 100001 | Employee A | 168
|
| Till 2/28/2022 | 10001 | A | 168 |
| 3/1/2022 | 10001 | A | 145 (Till 5/4/2022) |
Any suggestion on this?
Thanks. Have a nice day.
Hi 1320Data ,
Try the following code:
let Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WMjTUByIjAyNDJR0lQwMgADPMLJRidaKVjPXBckYociamYDlTfVNMOTMDsJwhmj4jmJmxAA==", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Date = _t, EmpId = _t, Hours = _t]), #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Date", type date}, {"EmpId", Int64.Type}, {"Hours", Int64.Type}}), #"Sorted Rows" = Table.Sort(#"Changed Type",{{"EmpId", Order.Ascending}, {"Date", Order.Ascending}}), #"Added Index" = Table.AddIndexColumn(#"Sorted Rows", "Index", 0, 1, Int64.Type), #"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Added Index", "Custom", each try if [EmpId] = #"Added Index" [EmpId] {[Index] + 1} then #"Added Index" [Date] {[Index] + 1} else null otherwise null), #"Added Custom1" = Table.AddColumn(#"Added Custom", "Custom.1", each try {0.. Duration.Days([Custom] - [Date] ) } otherwise null), #"Expanded Custom.1" = Table.ExpandListColumn(#"Added Custom1", "Custom.1"), #"Added Custom2" = Table.AddColumn(#"Expanded Custom.1", "Custom.2", each try [Date] + #duration([Custom.1],0,0,0) otherwise [Date]), #"Removed Columns" = Table.RemoveColumns(#"Added Custom2",{"Index", "Custom", "Custom.1", "Date"}), #"Renamed Columns" = Table.RenameColumns(#"Removed Columns",{{"Custom.2", "Date"}}), #"Sorted Rows1" = Table.Sort(#"Renamed Columns",{{"Date", Order.Ascending}}) in #"Sorted Rows1"Thank you. I did the same by creating index column and self join the table. It worked.
