    Hi ngocrin1 

     

    Do you have an OrderID column in Delivery table? If so, you can use Merge queries feature. Select both OrderID and CustomerKey as matching columns. This will match the corresponding DeliveryDate based on OrderID and CustomerKey fast and easily. 

     

    If you don't have OrderID column in Delivery table, you can still use Merge queries feature but select only CustomerKey as matching column. 

    Then add a custom column with below code 

    let vOrderDate = [OrderDate] in List.Min(Table.SelectRows([Delivery Table], each [DeliveryDate] >= vOrderDate)[DeliveryDate])

    You will need the orderID in your delivery table as well.. Otherwise there's no way to tell which order the delivery date is referencing.

      Tks Syk . I think if we can add a column with the date range between the day of 2 orders we can lookup exactly the order. But I dont know to do it.
