    Hi Etienne123 

     

    The solution you have suggested is presumably the best, and it's easy to achieve both in Power Query and using DAX.

    I've attached a file with both solutions, let me know if you need any explanation.

     

    Best Regards,
    Mariusz

    If this post helps, then please consider Accepting it as the solution.

    Before I saw this, I ended up doing somethikng similar to the PQ soluition, but I really like the DAX UNION method.

     

    Thanks!!

      Hi Etienne123 

       

      I'm glad you like it, just a few things to pint out here, the best practice is to do your transformation is PQ.

      1. Most of the time your model gets better compression rates than when using DAX columns/tables.
      2. You can load only one result table ( saves the model size and removes unnecessary objects )

      However, with smaller models, it shouldn't make much of a difference.

       

      Thanks
