Hi  @jenani_user ,

 

Here are the steps you can follow:

1. Create calculated table.

Table 2 =
var _table1=
FILTER(
    'Table',
    'Table'[A.acc]<>'Table'[B.acc])
var _table1_1=
SUMMARIZE(
    _table1,[A.acc],[B.acc])
var _table2=
FILTER(
    'Table',
    'Table'[A.text]<>'Table'[B.text])
var _table2_1=
SUMMARIZE(
    _table2,[A.text],[B.text])
return
CROSSJOIN(
    _table1_1,_table2_1)

2. Result:

HI,
Thanks for the response,

In this case,If the table has only few columns then this would be fine whereas the actual table contains more 60 columns, Could suggest any other ways to compare and create dynamically?

 

 

Thanks & Regards,

Jen
