IF Contain function value

I need to create a new column called "Job Group" based on the "EE List.Job" list. 

 

If the cell contain HSS, RN, Clinician from the EE List.Job, then the new column of the corresponding row shows "HSS", "RN", "Clinician".

 

Thanks in advance!

Hi @Sandie_Fong  Try below code in power query advance option:

= Table.AddColumn(#"PreviousStepName", "Job Group", each if Text.Contains([EE List.Job], "HSS") then "HSS" else if Text.Contains([EE List.Job], "RN") then "RN" else if Text.Contains([EE List.Job], "Clinician") then "Clinician" else null)

 

Hope this helps!!
