Hello

Is it possible to stack mutiple values horizontally using LOOKUPVALUE in powerbi. i saw its possible in excel using INDEX, so i tried with SUBSTITUTEWITHINDEX, with no luck

following is the link for excel solution

Thanks in advance

OK, if you do not need them to be in individual columns, you can do this:

 

Measure = CONCATENATEX(DISTINCT(FILTER('Table',[Status]="verified")),[Code],",")

DAX is easy, CALCULATE makes DAX hard...

Hello Greg

Sorry that i structured it badly. I will try to explain in a better way

Below is the table A

db new.png

So table A should check for Criteria in Table B (below)

db2.png

If the criteria matches and the Status is "Verified", it shoud give me data correspoding to marching criteria horizontally (As highlighted in Table A) if status is "not verified" 0 or NA

 

My idea was to use use LOOKUPVALE, but i dont know how to use in combination (i am a newbee with powerbi)

Thanks in advance

OK, @bishnu I'm trying to stick with you here. Can you provide me your expected results from the example data? From what I understand, you for each Criteria in Table A, you want to make sure that the values that appear in Doc1, Doc2, and Doc3 all appear in Table B with a Status of verified, is that close?

Hello greg

Thank you

The expected results are highlighted in green for Doc1, Doc2, and Doc3 in table A. I didnt know how to do it, so i entered it manually so that i what i wants as my result.

So basically the table B status will change, say like "N\A, Not verified, or Verified" but obviously final result will be "Verified".

I am trying to create this table A in powerbi so that i can keep a track of "N\A, Not verified, or Verified" doc's(documents) corresponding to each criteria.

i didnt understand what you meant by close!

 

Regards

B

OK, do you have an Index column for your source data table or can you add one?

Hello Greg

As if now i didnt add index column for both Table A or source data Table B. But i can if its needed

OK, if you do not need them to be in individual columns, you can do this:

 

Measure = CONCATENATEX(DISTINCT(FILTER('Table',[Status]="verified")),[Code],",")
