Hello,
I'm trying to put the following Excel Formula into Power Query M formula and I'm stumped. Here is the Excel formula:
=IFS(ISNUMBER(VALUE(LEFT(A6,1))),A6,ISNUMBER(VALUE(LEFT(B6,1))),B6,ISNUMBER(VALUE(LEFT(C6,1))),C6,ISNUMBER(VALUE(LEFT(D6,1))),D6,ISNUMBER(VALUE(LEFT(E6,1))),E6,ISNUMBER(VALUE(LEFT(F6,1))),F6,ISNUMBER(VALUE(LEFT(G6,1))),G6,ISNUMBER(VALUE(LEFT(H6,1))),H6)
This formula is checking ot see if the first character in the text of each of the cells is a number (0 to 9) and if so populate the new column with the contents of that cell if the first characer of the text is a number. If the cell begins with the number it is the "Account Number" which is what I need. If not, move to check the next column, There are 9 columns and each must be checked as the account number could be in the 9th column. See sample data below.
Thank you, BJ
Here is a better sample of the data.
Acct Level 0 | Acct Level 1 | Acct Level 2 | Acct Level 3 | Acct Level 4 | Acct Level 5 | Acct Level 6 | Acct Level 7 | Acct Level 8 | Acct Level 9 | Count | Account Only | |
T0000 - All Accounts (incl Stats) | BS000 - Total Balance Sheet | A0000 - Total Assets | A1000 - Total Current Assets | 10200 - Marketable Securities | 1 | 10200 - Marketable Securities |
