I could like to create a new column to determine that is our target data or not
if that is our target data, the data showing in the field will be...
"U" or "N" + ABCDEF + 01/02/03/04
which is 7 letter + 2 digit of number
Example as below
UHKGDEL01
NAMSLHR02
so, could anyone teach me how to build a formula in power BI to determine this is our target or not?
if(left(field name,1)= OR("N", "U"), etc.......
something like that?
Thank you.
Solved! Go to Solution.
@Ericwhv you mean like this? (This is a calculated column):
Check For Target =
IF(
LEFT('Table'[Input], 1) IN {"U", "N"}
&& RIGHT('Table'[Input], 2) IN {"01", "02", "03", "04"},
TRUE,
FALSE
)
