Removing Records based on Conditions from two Different Columns

[HabibAdil]

Hi All,

Please can somebody tell me how to do the attached in power query? I need to remove the quotes which have SO No and Opp records, if one are the other then keep the quotes.

@HabibAdil here is an idea of how you can do it, you can tweak it as per your need. Add new blank query and in advanced editor paste the code

let
    Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WcjRU0lECYaVYHSgPiBwhPCMg0wguZwyRc1aKjQUA", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Quote = _t, SoNo = _t, Opp = _t]),
    #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Quote", type text}, {"SoNo", Int64.Type}, {"Opp", type text}}),
    #"Opp" = Table.SelectRows ( #"Changed Type", each [Opp] <> null and [Opp] <>""),
    #"Merged Queries" = Table.NestedJoin(#"Changed Type", {"Quote"}, Opp, {"Quote"}, "Opp.1", JoinKind.LeftOuter),
    #"Removed Duplicates" = Table.Distinct(#"Merged Queries", {"Quote"}),
    #"Expanded Opp.1" = Table.ExpandTableColumn(#"Removed Duplicates", "Opp.1", {"Opp"}, {"Opp.2"}),
    #"Filtered Rows" = Table.SelectRows(#"Expanded Opp.1", each [SoNo] = null or [Opp.2] = null ),
    #"Removed Columns" = Table.RemoveColumns(#"Filtered Rows",{"Opp.2"})
in
    #"Removed Columns"

I would 💖 Kudos 🙂 if my solution helped.

Hi @parry2k  Thanks for your reply. I am afraid I could not make it work. Just to mention I am new to power BI/Query. Please can you change your code to make it work for this?

The source table name is Quotes and it has the following fields.

Quote_No                          text

Quote_Version                  Whole Number

SO_No                              text

Opportunity_GUID           text
