Add Column based on VLOOKUP and CONCATENTATION

[Alicia83B]

I am looking to add a new column based on looking up an opportunity number and concatentating the products from another column. A comma would be used to separate each Product Code. 

Here is an example of what my data looks like.  What formula would I use to complete what I am looking to do? Also, I am open to another way of getting this done if VLOOPUP and CONCATENTATION wouldn't be the best way to get what I am looking for. 

Opportunity #      Product Code

195314                 727

195313                 728

195314                 721

195313                 720

195314                 840

195313                 730

201331                 8240

Thank you in advance for your help!

Hi Alicia,

 Think this might give you the desired result (just check the column names first):

= Table.Group(#"Renamed Columns", {"Opportunity"}, {{"Count", each Table.RowCount(_), type number},{"ProductCode", each Text.Combine([ProductCode],","), type text}})

Hi,

Please try the following M code

let
    Source = Excel.CurrentWorkbook(){[Name="Tableau1"]}[Content],
    #"Type modifié" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Opportunity #", Int64.Type}, {"Product Code", type text}}),
    Sort = Table.Group(#"Type modifié", {"Opportunity #"}, { {"New", each Text.Combine([Product Code],", "), type number}})
in
    Sort

Please not your column Product Code needs to be formatted as text before applyting this code

Hi @KT_Bsmart2gethe 

Below is my desired outcome. Instead of having an Opportunity # listed multiple times due to multiple Product Codes, I would be able to show the Opportunity # with all the Product Codes in one cell in the next column. 

Opportunity #    Product Code

195314                727, 721, 840
