Hlookup with calculated columns

Hello all.

 

I'm trying to make a hlookup with calculated columns in PowerBI, but I still can not figure out how.

 

All columns in the table are calculated except "UF Descrição". The "maior envio" column returns me the maximum number of submissions for each state. In the case of Acre, the result is "Cont Jad" with 26 submissions. I need to create a column that the result of "maior envio" is "Cont Jad" in Acre.

 In Excel the formula used is "= hlookup (X59; F59: W60; 2; 2)" where X59 = 26 ("maior envio").

Can you help me with this? I already got the value "26". Now I need "Cont Jad".

 

Right away, thank you.

@helohandrade,

Could you please post sample data of tables which you imported into Power BI Desktop so that we can test? You can share the source Excel file through OneDrive.

@helohandrade,

Please share the Excel files via Dropbox or OneDrive. I am unable to download the file from the above link.

@helohandrade,

I am unable to find the calculated columns you mentioned in the sample Excel file. How do you create these calculated columns in Power BI Desktop?

Hi.

All the Cont's I made with countrows like

"Cont Jamef = COUNTROWS(FILTER(Compilados;Compilados[Transportadora] = "jamef")))

 

And maior envio I made with several max

maior envio = MAX(Compilados[Cont Diálogo];MAX(Compilados[Cont Jad];MAX(Compilados[Cont Jamef];MAX(Compilados[Cont LBR];MAX(Compilados[Cont Nowlog];MAX(Compilados[Cont Plimor];MAX(Compilados[Cont TNT];MAX(Compilados[Cont TNT];MAX(Compilados[Cont Total Express];(Compilados[Cont Transfolha]))))))))))

 

When I pull the value of "Transportadora" to the table, "maior envio" loses meaning, because the table lists all shipments of all carriers.
I just want the name of the carrier that has the largest number of shipments in the period for the state in the first column, in the way that "UF Descrição" do not become duplicate.

So it has to appear:

 

Acre 26 Jadlog

Alagoas 79 Jadlog

Amapa 12 Jadlog

Amazonas 81 Jadlog

Bahia 423 TNT

 

etc.

 

Thanks

@helohandrade,

I am unable to reproduce the above DAX in the table you share to me, as I can't found all the columns you use in maior envio in the shared table.
