Issues with getting data from excel to PBI report
- 2 years ago
your code seems to work up until the last line "
#"Filled Down" = Table.FillDown(#"Added Custom1",{"Category", "Subcategory"})"
I don't seem to understand how do i insert the logic that there are multiple categories and their subcategories.
I updated the excel file i shared you in the hyperlink, so now the categories name are accurate if you delete the numbers inside the brackets next to their name, Example: EAST BLOCK(Category 1)
true value: EASTBLOCK
and the same goes for the other categories and subcategories.
That is a rather unfortunate format. You can modify it in Power Query though, to make it usable.
Please provide sample data that covers your issue or question completely, in a usable format (not as a screenshot).

Do you need the hungarian task names in column A?

unfortunately yes, the headers from row 3 need to remain as columns for all of the categories
