Dear all,
I need to shift the cells on the right in my workload.
The idea is this:
1. I need to check what stored is in the column "Name".
2. If in the cells of the column "Name" I have the word "Labour", then the value stored in the column "Part Number", needs to put in the column "Labour Cost (MATURE). Differently, no change
I thought to this code:
OffsetLabour = Table.FromRecords(
Table.TransformRows(#"Changed Type1",
(r)=> Record.TransformFields(
r, {{"Name", each if Text.Contains(_,"Labour") then r[#"Labour Cost (MATURE)"]=r[#"Part Number"] else null}})))
However, this is not working
Could you support?
Thanks
Solved! Go to Solution.
OffsetLabour = ((cols) => Table.SplitColumn(
Table.CombineColumns(
#"Changed Type1",
cols,
(x) => if Text.Contains(x{0}, "Labour") then {x{0}, x{2}, x{1}} else x,
"combined"
),
"combined",
(x) => x,
cols
))({"Name", "Part Number", "Labour Cost (MATURE)"})
Thanks for your suggestions.
In the meatime, i made the following:
OffsetLabour = Table.FromRecords(
Table.TransformRows(#"Added Custom",
(r)=> Record.TransformFields(
r,
{
{"Labour Cost (MATURE)", each if Text.Contains(r[Name],"Labour") then r[#"Part Number"] else null},
{"Part Number", each if Text.Contains(r[Name],"Labour") then null else _}
}
)
)
),
Hi @Mic1979
...
OffsetLabour1 = Table.ReplaceValue(#"Changed Type1", each Text.Contains([Name],"Labour"), each [#"Part Number"],
(actual, test, new) => if test then new else actual, {"Labour Cost (MATURE)"}),
OffsetLabour2 = Table.ReplaceValue(OffsetLabour1, each Text.Contains([Name],"Labour"), null,
(actual, test, new) => if test then new else actual, {"Part Number"})
...
