Community ChampionMultiply a column with a constant in Power Query
Hello all,
I would like to multiply all values in a column with a specific constant using PowerQuery
I want the result will be displayed on the same column and not a new one.
Does anyone know how to do that?
Hello Zubair_Muhammad,
Thank you for teh reply. This creates a new column and i want to avoid that. I want to do the operation straight to the column in one step.
I managed to find the following script which does the trick actually.
= Table.ReplaceValue(#"Renamed Columns", each [SubTotal], each [SubTotal] * -1,Replacer.ReplaceValue, {"SubTotal"})May be you used the ADDCOLUMN tab instead of TRANSFORM tab
Both have this functionality
Use this button from the TRANSFORM tab, it won't add a column
