    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    If there are Unique IDs for [PROBLEM_ID] or [NUMBER_ID], this error message will be thrown. So the LOOKUPVALUE function is not suitable for this scenario. While the FIRSTNONBLANK function in the scenario which is equivalent to the LOOKUPVALUE will be Ok. If you need to show the blank value, you can create column but not a measure using the DAX below.

     

    Column 1= CALCULATE ( FIRSTNONBLANK ( 'INC_PROD'[CAUSED_BY], 1 ), FILTER ( 'INC_PROD', 'INC_PROD'[PROBLEM_ID]= 'PROB_PROD'[NUMBER_ID]))

     

    Best Regards,

    Amy

Hi Anonymous ,

 

Would you like to create measure using the FIRSTNONBLANK ? Then try the following formula. Or could you please share your sample data or desired output screenshots for further analysis? You can also upload sample pbix to OneDrive and post the link here. Do mask sensitive data before uploading.

 

CALCULATE ( FIRSTNONBLANK ( INC[Boolean column], 1 ), FILTER ( 'INC', 'INC'[PROB_ID] = MAX(PROB[NUMBER_ID] )) )

 

Best Regards,

Amy

Hello, 

 

I have a two tables:

 

Table A (number_id, prob_id, caused)

 

Table B (number_id)

 

Table A (prob_id) = Table B (number_id) 

 

what i want is to put in the Table B the column caused from Table A, and if the column caused have empty values i want the empty field in Table B to.

 

Can you help me ?

 

i can´t share my data, sorry for that

 

Best Regards,

JO

    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    >>what i want is to put in the Table B the column caused from Table A, and if the column caused have empty values i want the empty field in Table B to.

     

    1.Woud you like to create a column or a measure?

    2.When the Table A[Caused] have empty value, the Table B 's new created column or measure will be empty too, right? I am not sure what desired result would you want, could you please share your sample data or desired output in screenshots for further analysis? Do mask sensitive data before uploading.

      Hi, 

       

      Thanks for your quick reply :smileyhappy:

       

      sorry again, but i can´t show any data, because are sensitive and privileged information 

       

      But what i want is show in a table the number_id from Table B and the cause that is related (Table A caused) to that number_id (if there is no information I want the field to appear blank).

       

      it is possible to this in a measure ? if it is, i perfer in a measure, but if is not possible i can create a new colomun in table B is not a problem.

       

      Thank you again for your help, very grateful :smileyhappy:

       

      Best Regards, 

      JO

        Hi Anonymous ,

         

        So your demand is lookup the matched TableA[prob_id] based on the filter TableA[prob_id]=TableB[number_id], if not exist , return the blank, right? If yes, you can try the measure below.

         

        Measure1 = IF(ISBLANK(LOOKUPVALUE(TableA[caused],TableA[prob_id],MAX(TableB[number_id]))),

        BLANK(),

        LOOKUPVALUE(TableA[caused],TableA[prob_id],MAX(TableB[number_id])))

         

        Best Regards,

        Amy
