Power Query - Add column if max date by id
Hello,
I have a set of records into a table and want to add the "ismax" column in powerquery.
| DateC | P_ID | P_NAME | ismax |
| 01.01.2022 | 1 | Test1 | n |
| 05.01.2022 | 1 | Test1 | y |
| 06.01.2022 | 2 | Test2 | y |
How can I achieve this ?
I ahve a working solution in DAX but not with Power Query.
Thank you.
Hi Anonymous ,
Please try this custom column:
if [DateC] = List.Max(Table.SelectRows(#"Previous step name",(x)=>x[P_ID]=[P_ID] and x[P_NAME] = [P_NAME])[DateC]) then "y" else "n"all steps:
let Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WMtQ31DcyMDJS0lEyBOKQ1OISQ6VYnWglU1wSZggJI6iEkVJsLAA=", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [DateC = _t, P_ID = _t, P_NAME = _t]), #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"DateC", type date}, {"P_ID", Int64.Type}, {"P_NAME", type text}}), #"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Changed Type", "ismax ", each if [DateC] = List.Max(Table.SelectRows(#"Changed Type",(x)=>x[P_ID]=[P_ID] and x[P_NAME] = [P_NAME])[DateC]) then "y" else "n") in #"Added Custom"If I misunderstand your needs, please tell me what your expected output is and how it is calculated.

Hello,
let
Source = Excel.CurrentWorkbook(){[Name="Table1"]}[Content],
#"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"DateC", type date}}),
#"Grouped Rows" = Table.Group(#"Changed Type", {"P_ID"}, {{"Count", each _, type table [DateC=nullable date, P_ID=number, P_NAME=text]}}),
custom_function = (check_max_id)=> Table.AddColumn(check_max_id, "ismax", each if [DateC] = List.Max(check_max_id[DateC]) then "y" else "n"),
call_custom_function = Table.AddColumn(#"Grouped Rows", "Custom", each custom_function([Count])),
#"Removed Other Columns" = Table.SelectColumns(call_custom_function,{"Custom"}),
#"Expanded Custom" = Table.ExpandTableColumn(#"Removed Other Columns", "Custom", {"DateC", "P_ID", "P_NAME", "ismax"}, {"DateC", "P_ID", "P_NAME", "ismax"})
