Multiple conditions using cell reference in power query

[Thangavel_Raju]

Dear Friends,

My first message didn't go through I believe.  Hence the second message.

The first table is the master table.  The second is the transaction table.  The master table contains the salary slab, performance rating as exceptional, effective, competent and ineffective.  The transaction table contains the individual's ratings and basic salary.  Eg.  If someone's basic is less than 20700 and if his rating is exceptional 15% of basic, if effective 10% of basic, if competent 5% and ineffective 0% is the increment.  This has to be linked to the second table using column reference and not by hardcoding the amounts as the slabs in master will be variable.

Could someone help me to achieve the result please?

Thanks & regards.

Hi @Thangavel_Raju ,
you can achieve this like so:
1) Check salary in master table and choose "Unpivot other columns"

2) Merge with transaction table on the new "Attribute"-column and the Rating column from the transaction table.
