The data for the Child Table keep on changing with New Records or Updated Records based on Issue .

 

Have Tried the option of Merge Query , but it's not getting the right data.

 

The Final Output need to New Tables with Data

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

You may use Append not Merge:

Then remove duplicates:

Below is the final output:

This is the common Substitution pattern

let
    #"Final Output" = Child &  Table.SelectRows(Master, each not (List.Contains(Child[Issue],[Issue]))),
    #"Sorted Rows" = Table.Sort(#"Final Output",{{"Issue", Order.Ascending}})
in
    #"Sorted Rows"

see attached.
