alphabetical range sorting
Hi everyone,
I need to assign vendors to employees based on their first 3 letters, example:
Vendors > Employee
A - BAX > person A
BAY - DZ > person B
E - KO > person C
etc..
I'm hoping to find a way to create a column with DAX or power query to assign them rather than do it manually.
Thanks,
D

How does E go to C?
Create a table based on a set of characters which employees need to assign.
Create a new column in the table having vendor
Table having data = maxx(new table,search(new Tabble [search text], Table[vendor))>=0, new table[employee])Appreciate your Kudos. In case, this is the solution you are looking for, mark it as the Solution. In case it does not help, please provide additional information and mark me with @
