display only those columns where fields are not empty

I have a table containing payment terms of customer orders as follows -

 

Payment_Mode1 , Percentage of Mode1, Payment Mode2, % of Mode2 and Payment Mode3, % of Mode 3.

 

Payment Mode 1 will have value if there are terms of "TT", Mode2 for "DP" and Mode 3 for "LC" with appropriate % against each

 

Eg. IF the terms are 30% TT and 70% LC, Mode1 will have value of "TT", % will be 30, Mode 2 and % will be Blank and Mode3 and % will be LC,70%.

 

I would like to display the payment terms table on  customer orde details page and it should be only for those where the values are not blank. 

How do i do it?

Hi @GVTionale 

 

Can you provide an example of what your source data looks like, and also an example of what your desired output looks like please?

here is the sample data -

Prof_Inv#CustomerPmt_Mode1Mode1 %Pmt_Mode2Mode2 %Pmt_Mode3Mode3 %Days
101AdrienTT100%     
112CharlieTT30%  LC-USANCE70%90
123DebbieTT30%DP70%   

 

Expected Table output Visual (Customer Page)

 

Customer : Charlie

 

Prof_Inv#Payment Terms
112TT -30% ; LC-USANCE 90Days - 70%

 

 

Hope this helps

 

Hi @GVTionale 

 

I've created the [Payment Terms] field in Power Query that you can use in your report as follows:

 

let
    Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WMjQwVNJRckwpykzNAzJCQoCEoYGBKpBSwMCxOkANhkZAtnNGYlFOZipMhzGKBh9n3dBgRz9nVyDbHCxjaQDRa2QM5LikJiWha3UJgKtFsi4WAA==", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [#"Prof_Inv#" = _t, Customer = _t, Pmt_Mode1 = _t, #"Mode1 %" = _t, Pmt_Mode2 = _t, #"Mode2 %" = _t, Pmt_Mode3 = _t, #"Mode3 %" = _t, Days = _t]),
    replacedSpaceforNull = Table.ReplaceValue(Source," ",null,Replacer.ReplaceValue,{"Mode1 %", "Pmt_Mode2", "Mode2 %", "Pmt_Mode3", "Mode3 %", "Days"}),
    mergeMode1 = Table.AddColumn(replacedSpaceforNull, "Mode1", each Text.Combine({[Pmt_Mode1], [#"Mode1 %"]}, " - "), type text),
    mergeMode2 = Table.AddColumn(mergeMode1, "Mode2", each Text.Combine({[Pmt_Mode2], [#"Mode2 %"]}, " - "), type text),
    mergeMode3 = Table.AddColumn(mergeMode2, "Mode3", each Text.Combine({[Pmt_Mode3], [#"Mode3 %"]}, " - "), type text),
    mergeDaysDesc = Table.AddColumn(mergeMode3, "daysDesc", each if [Days] <> null then Text.Combine({[Days], "days"}, " ") else null, type text),
    mergePaymentTerms = Table.AddColumn(mergeDaysDesc, "Payment Terms", each Text.Combine(List.Select({[Mode1],[Mode2],[Mode3], [daysDesc]}, each _ <> "" and _ <> null), " ; "), type text),
    pctDataTypes = Table.TransformColumnTypes(mergePaymentTerms,{{"Mode1 %", Percentage.Type}, {"Mode2 %", Percentage.Type}, {"Mode3 %", Percentage.Type}})
in
    pctDataTypes

 

 

Paste this into a blank query using Advanced Editor so you can follow my steps.

 

I get the following output which can, of course, be filtered as you require:

Hi Pete

 

thanks so much for your prompt reply.

 

I have some more issues with the data as i went through it now  and presenting the same here 

 

(1)the source Table has values filled in for payment mode even where the % is 0

(2) the values in percentage column are whole numbers . how do i add the % symbol in the description

(3) Days field has been provided for all payment modes, though the value is 0 for Mode 1 and Mode 2 for all the rows

 

PAYMENT_MODEDAYSPERCENTAGEPAYMENT_MODE_2DAYS_2PERCENTAGE_2PAYMENT_MODE_3DAYS_3PERCENTAGE_3
TT0100DP 0LC-S00
TT030DP 0LC-U6070
TT00DP 100LC-S00

 

Kindly advise how to resolve this

 

regards

Hi @GVTionale 

 

1) Please try this:

 

 

 

let
    Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WMjQwVNJRckwpykzNAzJCQoCEoYGBKpBSwMCxOkANhkZAtnNGYlFOZipMhzGKBh9n3dBgRz9nVyDbHCxjaQDRa2QM5LikJiWha3UJgKtFsi4WAA==", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [#"Prof_Inv#" = _t, Customer = _t, Pmt_Mode1 = _t, #"Mode1 %" = _t, Pmt_Mode2 = _t, #"Mode2 %" = _t, Pmt_Mode3 = _t, #"Mode3 %" = _t, Days = _t]),
    replacedSpaceforNull = Table.ReplaceValue(Source," ",null,Replacer.ReplaceValue,{"Mode1 %", "Pmt_Mode2", "Mode2 %", "Pmt_Mode3", "Mode3 %", "Days"}),
    mergeMode1 = Table.AddColumn(replacedSpaceforNull, "Mode1", each Text.Combine({[Pmt_Mode1], [#"Mode1 %"]}, " - "), type text),
    mergeMode2 = Table.AddColumn(mergeMode1, "Mode2", each Text.Combine({[Pmt_Mode2], [#"Mode2 %"]}, " - "), type text),
    mergeMode3 = Table.AddColumn(mergeMode2, "Mode3", each Text.Combine({[Pmt_Mode3], [#"Mode3 %"]}, " - "), type text),
    mergeDaysDesc = Table.AddColumn(mergeMode3, "daysDesc", each if [Days] <> null then Text.Combine({[Days], "days"}, " ") else null, type text),
    mergePaymentTerms = Table.AddColumn(mergeDaysDesc, "Payment Terms", each Text.Combine(List.Select({[Mode1],[Mode2],[Mode3], [daysDesc]}, each _ <> "" and _ <> null), " ; "), type text),
    remUnusedCols = Table.RemoveColumns(mergePaymentTerms,{"Mode1", "Mode2", "Mode3", "daysDesc"}),
    pctDataTypes = Table.TransformColumnTypes(remUnusedCols,{{"Mode1 %", Percentage.Type}, {"Mode2 %", Percentage.Type}, {"Mode3 %", Percentage.Type}})
in
    pctDataTypes

 

 

 

 

I've adjusted the replace step so it swaps zeroes for null now instead of spaces. Also removed unused columns.

 

2) The final step in the above should set these columns to Percent data type

 

3) The code abve should fix this providing Mode1 and mode2 days are ALWAYS zero.
