Help with New Measure Data Column

Hello!

I'm looking to have the column Vendor Name, if (blank), return the text "PREPAIDS" if column Expense Description contains the text "PREPAIDS".  I would also like Vendor Name, if (blank), if Expense Description does not contain the text "PREPAIDS"/all else return "Accrual/Reclass" if it does not contain the text "Prepaids".

 

What is currently shown:

Vendor NameExpense Description
(blank)PREPAIDS
Bob's DinerFood
(blank)Accrual
Super Sally'sSports Apparel
(blank)Expense Reclass

 

What I would like shown:

Vendor NameExpense Description
PREPAIDSPREPAIDS
Bob's DinerFood
Accrual/ReclassAccrual
Super Sally'sSports Apparel
Accrual/ReclassExpense Reclass

  • Hi dtango9 

    You can create a column with below DAX expression,

    Vendor Name Updated = IF('Table'[Vendor Name] = BLANK() && LOWER('Table'[Expense Description]) = "prepaids" , "PREAIDS",IF('Table'[Vendor Name] = BLANK() && not (LOWER('Table'[Expense Description]) = "prepaids") , "Accrual/Reclass",'Table'[Expense Description]))

    Thanks!

      New Master Name = IF('finance ExpensesWithAccountDescriptions'[Originating Master Name]=BLANK() && LOWER('finance ExpensesWithAccountDescriptions'[Description])="PREPAIDS","PREPAIDS",IF('finance ExpensesWithAccountDescriptions'[Originating Master Name] = BLANK() && NOT (LOWER('finance ExpensesWithAccountDescriptions'[Description]) = "PREPAID"), "Accrual/Reclass", 'finance ExpensesWithAccountDescriptions'[Originating Master Name]))
