PowerBI equivalent to SQL like with substring
Hi community,
Looking to see if anyone has any dax advice.
Looking for PowwerBI equivalent to ... case when project_id like '%X' then substr(project_id,0,lenght(project_id)-1) else project_id end
Many thanks
Whenever asking about sql, please include a description of what the script does.
If I understood correctly, a dax calculated column could be something like:
Trimmed ID =
IF(
RIGHT( [project_id], 1) = "X",
LEFT( [project_id], LEN([project_id]) - 1),
[project_id]
)
