Merged queries with deleted duplicates and filtered rows
Hi everyone, I'm having issues with merging two queries together. My Table 1 looks like that: ID Data_1 Data_2 Date_Field ABC 100 150 07/23/2024 ABC 110 160 07/24/2024 ...

Hi EtienneT ,
Thanks for PwerQueryKees reply.
Not sure about the structure of your second table based on your description, here's my test data
Table 2let Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WcnRyVtJRMjQwAJGmINLAXN/IWN/IwMhEKVYHrsAQrMAMpsAEQ4ExSMpP3xGqwAyqIBYA", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [ID = _t, Data_1 = _t, Data_2 = _t, Date_Field = _t]), #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"ID", type text}, {"Data_1", Int64.Type}, {"Data_2", type text}, {"Date_Field", type date}}), SortedTable = Table.Sort(Source,{{"ID", Order.Ascending}, {"Date_Field", Order.Descending}}), AddIndex = Table.AddIndexColumn(SortedTable, "Index", 1, 1, Int64.Type), GroupedTable = Table.Group(AddIndex, {"ID"}, { {"LatestData", each let LatestData1 = List.First([Data_1]), LatestData2 = if List.First([Data_2]) <> "N/A" then List.First([Data_2]) else List.First(List.Skip([Data_2], 1)) in [Data_1 = LatestData1, Data_2 = LatestData2] } }), ExpandedTable = Table.ExpandRecordColumn(GroupedTable, "LatestData", {"Data_1", "Data_2"}), #"Merged Queries" = Table.NestedJoin(ExpandedTable, {"ID"}, #"Table (2)", {"ID"}, "Table (2)", JoinKind.LeftOuter), #"Expanded Table (2)" = Table.ExpandTableColumn(#"Merged Queries", "Table (2)", {"Other data"}, {"Table (2).Other data"}) in #"Expanded Table (2)"Final output

Hi EtienneT ,
Thanks for PwerQueryKees reply.
Not sure about the structure of your second table based on your description, here's my test data
Table 2
let
Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WcnRyVtJRMjQwAJGmINLAXN/IWN/IwMhEKVYHrsAQrMAMpsAEQ4ExSMpP3xGqwAyqIBYA", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [ID = _t, Data_1 = _t, Data_2 = _t, Date_Field = _t]),
#"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"ID", type text}, {"Data_1", Int64.Type}, {"Data_2", type text}, {"Date_Field", type date}}),
SortedTable = Table.Sort(Source,{{"ID", Order.Ascending}, {"Date_Field", Order.Descending}}),
AddIndex = Table.AddIndexColumn(SortedTable, "Index", 1, 1, Int64.Type),
GroupedTable = Table.Group(AddIndex, {"ID"}, {
{"LatestData", each
let
LatestData1 = List.First([Data_1]),
LatestData2 = if List.First([Data_2]) <> "N/A" then List.First([Data_2]) else List.First(List.Skip([Data_2], 1))
in
[Data_1 = LatestData1, Data_2 = LatestData2]
}
}),
ExpandedTable = Table.ExpandRecordColumn(GroupedTable, "LatestData", {"Data_1", "Data_2"}),
#"Merged Queries" = Table.NestedJoin(ExpandedTable, {"ID"}, #"Table (2)", {"ID"}, "Table (2)", JoinKind.LeftOuter),
#"Expanded Table (2)" = Table.ExpandTableColumn(#"Merged Queries", "Table (2)", {"Other data"}, {"Table (2).Other data"})
in
#"Expanded Table (2)"
Final output
