Power Query - Linking two Queries

Hi ,

 

I am new to power query and I am trying to understand how I can create a new colum in my query 'Main Data'  using the 'Period' coulmn in my query 'Monthly Finance Periods' .

 

I want to create a column using a custom formula to look at the 'Transaction date' column in my query 'Main Data'  and if the date is between the 'Start Date' and 'End Date' in my query 'Monthly Finance Periods'' then populate the  'Period'  value from query 'Monthly Finance Periods' into my custom column.

 

Is this possbile or not? Thank you

Hi @craig811 ,

 

You can try to create a calculated column in table 'Main Data' using DAX below.

 

Column 1= CALCULATE(VALUES('Monthly Finance Periods'[Period]),FILTER('Monthly Finance Periods', 'Main Data'[Transaction date]<'Monthly Finance Periods'[End Date] && 'Main Data' '[Transaction date]>'Monthly Finance Periods'[Start Date]))

 

Best Regards,

Amy
