Lookup value in Power BI - Blank

Dear all,

Could you please advise below issue?

I use Lookup value function in Power BI Desktop, but there is problem with Blank value in search result and Not found value in search result (as below picture).

If I want Blank value in search result display as "Blank" and Not found value in search result => "Not found".

How can I adjust the DAX?

 

Thanks for your support!

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

Please try this:

Column =
VAR _value =
    IF (
        'Table2'[Product] IN VALUES ( Table1[Product] ),
        LOOKUPVALUE ( Table1[Sun-product], Table1[Product], [Product] ),
        "Not Found"
    )
RETURN
    IF ( _value = BLANK (), "Blank", _value )

The final output is shown below:

@Anonymous ,

assume you lookup column is A1 (of its calculation)

 

coalesce([A1], "Not found")

 

or if(isblank([A1]), "Not found" [A1])
