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 |
| 000123 | 1111XXXXXXXXXXXX2222 |
| 000123 | 1111XXXXXXXXXXXX2221 |
| 000123 | 1111XXXXXXXXXXXX2200 |
| 000123 | 0011XXXXXXXXXXXX2222 |
| 000123 | 1111XXXXXXXXXXXX2222 |
| 0023245 | 0000XXXXXXXXX000 |
| 0023245 | 0000XXXXXXXXX00011 |

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"
)
