Hi,

This M code works

let
    Source = Excel.CurrentWorkbook(){[Name="Data"]}[Content],
    #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Date", Int64.Type}, {"EmployeeID", Int64.Type}, {"SickLeaves", type text}, {"PaidLeaves", type text}, {"Holidays", type text}, {"UnpaidLeaves", type text}}),
    #"Replaced Value" = Table.ReplaceValue(#"Changed Type","-",null,Replacer.ReplaceValue,{"SickLeaves", "PaidLeaves", "Holidays", "UnpaidLeaves"}),
    #"Unpivoted Other Columns" = Table.UnpivotOtherColumns(#"Replaced Value", {"Date", "EmployeeID"}, "Attribute", "Value"),
    #"Removed Columns" = Table.RemoveColumns(#"Unpivoted Other Columns",{"Attribute"})
in
    #"Removed Columns"

Hope this helps.

If they are blank the

coalesce(table[SickLeaves],table[PaidLeaves],table[Holidays],table[UnpaidLeaves])

Or try like

switch(true(),
table[SickLeaves]<>"-",table[SickLeaves],
table[PaidLeaves]<>"-",table[PaidLeaves],
table[Holidays]<>"-",table[Holidays],
table[UnpaidLeaves]<>"-",table[UnpaidLeaves],
"Other"
)

Hello Amit,

Thank you so much for your quick response.

I tried creating Calculated column with Switch as above but it not showing as i wanted show. If Employee has not taken any Leave then in the List that Employee should not be listed.

And i am trying to display Date, EmployeeID and LeaveReason if there is Leave for that Employee then only it should display otherwise not. For all employees Saturday and Sunday and Holidays are compulsory to display. So what i am trying here is just filter Leaves column and if any leaves are there then display it Date, EmployeeID and Reason.

By using above switch solution it is displaying only others i.e. false condition for all Employees.

And instead of "-" Excel is having "Blanks".

And i tried with "COALESCE" and it showing reasons. But for this i have created Calculated Column and i have added all Leaves Columns in it.

And in Table i have dragged Date , EmployeeID and And this newly created CAlculated column. It shows all Employees Data with Blanks also. But i trying to show only Leaves Data only.

I am trying with applying filters but it is not working. Kindly help!

Regards,

Amar

Refer the new column in table in the attached file after signature

Column = SWITCH(TRUE(),Sheet1[SickLeaves]<>"-",[SickLeaves],[PaidLeaves]<>"-",[PaidLeaves],[Holidays]<>"-",[Holidays],[UnpaidLeaves]<>"-",[UnpaidLeaves],"No Leave")

Hello Amit,

Thanks for your quick response.

It is displaying all Leaves data Correctly. 

What i did here is i have created Calculated column with above DAX. 

I created Table and i inserted Date EmployeeID and Above CAlculated column. And it shows like below,

Here i dont want to display other Employees data if they dont have any Leaves. I tried with below DAX but it is showing true or false of 1 or zero.

IF(not ISBLANK('デイリーデータsample'[NGLeavesData]),1)

i am trying to display only DAte , EmployeeID and Reason. And if remove 1 from IF then gives error.

Kindly help on this .

Thanks in advance!

Amar

You already have blanks instead of "-" in excel, I guess merge in query editor is a much easier way.

1. Merge the 4 columns

2. Close and Apply, put the columns in a table visual then filter the merged column.
