Hello Community, 
I am a Newbie to the Power bi Platform.

I have been working on transform data and facing this issue (below Image) while performing the Inner Join  

PrudhviL_0-1688163356646.png

My Source has this formula.

 

= Table.NestedJoin(CompetencyVsTime, {"Id competency", "Job Code"}, Ref, {"CompetencyId", "Job Code"}, "Ref", JoinKind.Inner)

 

 I have tried seqarching for 495450 in both the tables but was unabke to find the row.


Here are the snapshots of data from the tables that i have joined

Hi @Anonymous ,

By my research and test, the step Table.SelectRows(#"previous step", each true) will return all the rows, so I guess in your sample "Filtered Rows" is not the first step returning error, please find the first error step and click to see the error details.

According to your description, you merged CompetencyVsTime table and Ref table getting the "Final" table, then you want to delete rows with error. If so, you can directly click Remove Rows>Remove Errors.
