Search in a text column for values in another table Column using DAX and map the values

Hello,
I've two tables Masterdata and Regions. Masterdata has a column called 'consolidated Region' and Region table has only one column 'Regions'. This table contains unique values of region.
sample of data is like:

Masterdata==>

offerConsolidated Region
1AMN EUS EUN
2AMN EUS,EUN
3EUS
4AMN
5AMN
6AMN
7EUN UK DACH
8EUS, EUN, CHN
9EUS, EUN, AMN
10EUS, EUN, AMN
11EUS IB

 

Region Table==>

Regions
EUS
EUN
EUC
AMN
AMC
AMS
E2A
AIM

CHN

I want to create a new column in Region table. The value of corresponding 'consolidated Region' should get mapped with 'Regions' if the 'Regions' value exist in the string of 'Consolidated Region'.


sample of Desired Result ==>

 

RegionsCalculated column

Hi @DikshaT 

 

The desired output seems a bit ambiguous.
Eg: For EUS, there are 4 different values how is it derived? Also you mentioned "Region" table is unique then why do you have 4 rows of EUS?

RegionsCalculated column
EUSAMN EUS EUN
EUSEUS
EUSEUS, EUN, CHN
EUSEUS IB


Can you confirm if this is what you want?

Hello,

 

Region will not be unique in the result. The Idea is to pick a value from 'Region' table and check in 'Consolidated Region', If this Region value is present in Consolidated value then Map consolidated value in front of Region value.
And this process should iterate over all the rows of 'Consolidated Region' column for each row of 'Regions' Column.

Yes at last we will have some duplicate rows in output table, but I'll remove it.
