If columns 2 and 3 are numeric types, then you'll need to convert to text before combining and pad with zeros.
Try a custom column like this:
[Column1] & "-" & Text.PadStart(Text.From([Column2]), 3, "0") & "-" & Text.PadStart(Text.From([Column3]), 3, "0")Thanks
I changed dataype to text for column 2 & column 3.
Did you write a measure above?
I have multiple fields.
No. This is a calculated column using the M language in the query editor.
Measures use DAX.
