Match Serial Numbers in Two Rows

I have two fields, "Card #" and "Serial Number."

 

Each "Card #" should have an exact match in the "Serial Number" field. However, due to some formating issues, I know there are some "Card #" that don't have an exact match in the "Serial Number" field.

 

Is there a measure to identify which numbers in the "Card #" field do not have a match in the "Serial Number" field?

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

If you are looking for a measure which can show all the card # which does not matched the series number dynamicelly, We can try to use the following measure to meet your requirement:

 

Not Matched Card # = CONCATENATEX(FILTER('Table','Table'[Card #] <> 'Table'[Serial Number]),[Card #],UNICHAR(10))


If it doesn't meet your requirement, Could you please show the exact expected result based on the Tables that we have shared?


Best regards,

Try

EXCEPT(distinct(table[Card#], distinct(table[SerialNo]))

If in the same table you can just use:

 

Column = IF('Table'[Card #] <> 'Table'[Serial Number], "Not Equal", "Equal")
