Hello Everyone,
I hope somebody can help me with this.
I have two tables which don't have relationship ,But I want to create a new column in "table 1" with partial search of using column "units" from "table 2",I was trying using dax function but not able to get suceeded in that,one more tricy thing is there first come first server should be mapping from "table 2" column units ,So below I am sharing the example
table 1:-
tags |
rohit,Devps,Devps/Amer/Ser,Lin,Ser |
rj,vps,vps/mer/er,in,er |
Devps,Devps/Amer/Ser,Lin,Ser |
vps,vps/mer/er,in,er |
table2:-
units | form |
,rohit, | Global |
,Devps, | Global |
,rj, | Global |
,vps, | Global |
output:-
table 1:
tags | unit | form |
rohit,Devps,Devps/Amer/Ser,Lin,Ser | rohit | Global |
rj,vps,vps/mer/er,in,er | rj | Global |

Hi, @Anonymous
Both Table 1 and Table 2 require Split Column in power query.
Table1:
tags = [tags.1]&","&[tags.2]&","&[tags.3]&[tags.4]&","&[tags.5]
Table2:
Delete the blank lines after the split. Establish a direct relationship between the 2 tables.
This gives you the output you expect.
