How to use Lookupvalue in M Query from same table
Hello,
I am Siriwat, Beginner for M language of Power BI.
I want to create energy report from Electrical meter that accumulate data as below :
and the data that i want in yellow column :
I can solve it in DAX function by create column with lookupvalue(table : meter1,table : date,table: date+1) and meter2 also.
but i can't find solution with M Query in Transform data.
So if I want to use this function in M Query, How i will do ?
Thank in advance 🙏
Siriwat_Lukin , You have tp create a table, duplicate or copy . Then create column with
new date = Date -duration(1,0,0,0) ,
Merge both on the date and new date; then use the values from two table to create these columns
refer if needed

Hi,
can you give the new date formula ?. I tried newdate= Date - duration(1,0,0,0). it is not working.

Hi,
No it's come from column meter1 and meter2.
Example (meter1),
250 (from 02/01/2021) - 200 (from01/01/2021) = 50 (show in new meter1)
Thank you,
