Dear Team,
I hope you're doing great!
Could someone please help me with the following if statement I'd like to add to a conditional column in Power Query?
Unfortunately, PO value is given as "#/#" in one column. However, the same value can be given from different row where the Document Text is identical to the case where PO is "#/#". Ideally, I'd like to exract the figure from the row where the Document Text is identical or duplicated and PO is e.g. 450000xxx and not '#/#"
1) PO.UP is #/#
2) However, Document Text is identical in another row in the same table
3) Whereas in the identical row has almost always a value in the so called PO Colum e.g. 45xxxxxxx
4) Ideally, I'd like to assign a new PO.UP2 colum to extract the value in step (3)
Any ideas how to do this with Power Query?
Thanks a lot for the help
Add a custom column:
= if [PO] = "#/#" then null else [PO]
Fill this column up
