Excel Formula to Power Query Custom Column Help!

Hi all,

 

Im trying to load all my columns that have formulas in to power query but im struggling with translating the  excel formula for one column into a custom column Power query equivalent formula that gets the same result.

 

Hope that makes sense.

 

The excel formula is :

=IFERROR(IFS(OR([@[Race Code (2)]]="04",[@[Race Code (2)]]="DO",[@[Race Code (2)]]="IN",[@[Race Code (2)]]="LE",[@[Race Code (2)]]="RE"),"ADJU",[@[Race Code (2)]]="AF","AFAF",[@[Race Code (2)]]="AX","AXAX",OR([@[Race Code (2)]]="20",[@[Race Code (2)]]="HS",[@[Race Code (2)]]="NA"),"COMM",[@[Race Code (2)]]="EW","EWEW",[@[Race Code (2)]]="EX","EXEX",[@[Race Code (2)]]="FS","FSFS",[@[Race Code (2)]]="GS","GSGS",OR([@[Race Code (2)]]="GV",[@[Race Code (2)]]="UN"),"GVGV",OR(LEN([@[INV_REF]])=8,LEN([@[INV_REF]])=10,LEFT([@[INV_REF]],4),LEN([@[INV_REF]])=4),LEFT([@[INV_REF]],4),OR(LEN([@[INV_REF]])=9,LEN([@[INV_REF]])=6,LEN([@[INV_REF]])=14,LEN([@[INV_REF]])=15,LEN([@[INV_REF]])=24),"GVGV"),"ADJU")

 

Please note the below in the formula are column headers.

  • Race Code (2)
  • INV_REF

 

Can someone help me convert the excel formula into a Power Query Custom Column M Expression.

Hi @Delzy ,

Based on the code you provided, not very clear about the expected result. Could you please provide a sample like below and the corresponding result?
