Calculated column

Hi there,

 

I know this has to be really easy but I can't find the solution. Any idea?

 

i have two tables.

 

1- id clients

2- id clients, units sale per row

 

i would like to add a calculated column in the first table.  If the ID has more or equal than 2 units in a row from table 2 (without sum), this ID is "teacher", if the id has less of 2 units, the id would be "alumn". And third condition, if the id has different rows with less than 2 units and others row with 2 or more units, the id would be "mixed".

 

thanks!

Hi @modwonka ,

 

You can check the attachment for the detailed information.

 

Create a index in power query and then create following calculated columns

 

id1 = CALCULATE(MAX('Table (2)'[id clients]),FILTER('Table (2)',[Index]=EARLIER('Table (2)'[Index])-1))
flag = IF([id clients]=[id1],1,0)
flag2 = SUMX(FILTER(ALL('Table (2)'),[id clients]=EARLIER('Table (2)'[id clients])),[flag])
Type = IF([flag2]+1=COUNTROWS(FILTER('Table (2)',[id clients]=EARLIER('Table (2)'[id clients]))),"teacher",IF([flag2]=0,"album","mixed"))

Then you can use LOOKUPVALUE to match type in the first table.

Type = LOOKUPVALUE('Table (2)'[Type],'Table (2)'[id clients],'Table'[id clients])

Hi @modwonka 

I don't understand the requirement. Do you want to show some data, a sample of both tables and explain what you need based on that data, with the expected result?

Secondly, do you want this in DAX or Power query?
