Hello Anita, 

 

You can use the inner merge option in Power Query Editior combined with remove duplicates. 

 

Let me know if you have any more questions.

Hi @Anonymous 

 

Just as @AbhinavJoshi said that you can use merge queries or append queries in Power Query.

Here is a link about how to work with duplicate values:

Working with duplicate values - Power Query | Microsoft Learn

 

Or you can try to use SUMMARIZE() function to delete duplicate values:

SUMMARIZE function (DAX) - DAX | Microsoft Learn
