Concatenate down a column based on another column?
I would like to create a custom column to concatenate the ORDERNUM number based on SHIPPLANT.
i.e.
011 - 04779,04780,04782,04784
022 - 04872,04902
026 - 04827,04828
Any Ideas?

You can use GROUP BY and modify the code as follows.
Create a blank Query, go to the Advanced Editor, clear the existing code, and paste the codes give below and follow the steps.let Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("XcnBCQAgCADAXXz7UInUWcT91wikAn0eFwG0VB0QiBkSy0bDMryaTetFrp26TbS8v+05Dw==", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [ORDERNUM = _t, SHIPPLANT = _t]), #"Grouped Rows" = Table.Group(Source, {"SHIPPLANT"}, {{"ORDERNUM-CONCAT", each Text.Combine([ORDERNUM],","), type nullable text}}) in #"Grouped Rows"
