I have a booking table with a column called DiscountID which contains discount codes that are comma delimetered (as below). I have a seperate discounts table with a name for each discount and the discount ID. Is it possible to replace the discount codes with the name of the discounts and keep the delimetered format? How would I do this in DAX (I'm using Direct Query so can't do it in M)
| Booking ID | Discount IDs |
| 123456 | 4567,5678 |
| 789101 | 7890 |
| 234567 |
Solved! Go to Solution.
I can't do that in PowerQuery. Ended up doing it this way:
Discount Name =
VAR DiscountList = SUBSTITUTE(MasterTicket[DiscountIDs], ",", "|")
Var DiscountCount = if(DiscountList = "",0,PATHLENGTH(DiscountList))
var discountTable = ADDCOLUMNS(GENERATESERIES(1,DiscountCount),"DiscountCodeColumn",VALUE(PATHITEM(DiscountList,[Value])))
return CONCATENATEX(discountTable,LOOKUPVALUE(Discount[Name],Discount[DiscountId],[DiscountCodeColumn]),",")
@Anonymous , I think few steps.
1. Split delimiter into rows: Power Query
2. merge with discount code table: Power Query
3. Create a table with discount code delimited by comma: DAX or Power Query
