Validate - Measure

Hello - How can I create a measure to validate the values in all columns?

 

If the Type is 000123 - the length of the description column value is 16 and the first 4 numbers start with 1111 and end with 2222.

 

If True return Valid else return Invalid

 

Table 1 - Test Number

 

Type (Text Column)Number (Description
0001231111XXXXXXXXXXXX2222
0001231111XXXXXXXXXXXX2221
0001231111XXXXXXXXXXXX2200
0001230011XXXXXXXXXXXX2222
0001231111XXXXXXXXXXXX2222
00232450000XXXXXXXXX000
00232450000XXXXXXXXX00011
00232452200XXXXXXXXX00011

Hi @gauravnarchal ,

I have created a simple sample, please refer to it to see if it helps you.

Create a measure.

Measure =
VAR _left =
    LEFT ( MAX ( 'Table'[Number (Description] ), 4 )
VAR _right =
    RIGHT ( MAX ( 'Table'[Number (Description] ), 4 )
RETURN
    IF (
        MAX ( 'Table'[Type (Text Column)] ) = "000123"
            && _left = "1111"
            && _right = "2222",
        "Valid",
        "InValid"
    )
