Power BI Relationship Help
I have 2 excel files. One has all my main data but the data source does not always have a clean Account Name value, and many of my Accounts Number change from year to year. I have another table with ...
olindeman You could create a calculated column in the 2nd table to determine the "Account" that you want to use...
Account = IF(Table2[Parent Account] = BLANK(), Table2[Account Number], Table2[Parent Account])
Hi olindeman,
Could you please share sample data of your scenario and post the expected result here?
Thanks,
Lydia Zhang
Main sheet looks like this, this sheet has 30k plus lines a day
| Account number | Account Name | Sale |
| 148 | Aventure Sport | 3 |
| 124 | DO NOT USE Adventure Sport | 4 |
| 34567 | Dons Cars | 5 |
Second sheet looks like this has 160 accounts max
| Account number | Parent Account | Account Name |
| 148 | 148 | Aventure Sport |
| 124 | 148 | Aventure Sport |
| 34567 | Dons Cars |
My goal would be to relate the sheets somehow so that sheet 1 when it sees 124 it knows to attribute those sales to 148, however when nothing is in sheet two it uses sheet ones account number. Like with Dons Cars, it does not have a parent account so i need it to use 34567.
