Get only latest data to be merged with Master data table from update table

Dear Team,

 

I would need some suggestions on the possibility of below tasks.

 

I have 2 tables called Master data and update table.

 

In master data I.e. I have all employee related info populating from another source table which 1st entry at the time Onboarding.

 

In update table there are 2 or more entries of each employee based on events like salary change, Designation change, band change row wise with effective date.

 

  • Is there anyway to get the Master data file with latest info like salary, Designation change according to latest effective date ( if not Master data info should remain same) as per update table.

I really don't if anybody can achieve this but if does that will be a great help

    Hi Punithshetty ,

     

    It's possible. If both tables have matching columns, you can try merging them. Please kindly refer to

    Merge queries overview - Power Query | Microsoft Learn

     

       

                                                                                                                                                             

    Best Regards,
