Hi, I am new in Power Query and I have been struggling to find out how to create a Column name "Running_On_hand". The source data are two tables:
| Material | Res_Date | Reservation_Number | Req_Qty |
| 10292891 | 7/3/2021 | 563231 | 1 |
| 10292891 | 10/10/2022 | 2365056 | 1 |
| 10023987 | 7/3/2021 | 562539 | 1 |
| 10272299 | 7/3/2021 | 555273 | 3 |
| 10272299 | 12/24/2022 | 2701112 | 8 |
| 10272299 | 2/13/2023 | 2944045 | 10 |
| 10272299 | 2/16/2023 | 2959099 | 1 |
| 10272299 | 3/2/2023 | 3021208 | 5 |
| 10272299 | 3/9/2023 | 3050715 | 30 |
| 10272299 | 3/23/2023 | 3117994 | 5 |
| 10272299 | 4/3/2023 | 3164770 | 5 |
| 10195249 | 7/8/2021 | 567184 | 1 |
| 10195249 | 7/8/2021 | 567912 | 1 |
| 11003980 | 7/8/2021 | 558134 | 750 |
Table1
| Material | On_Hand_Qty |
| 10292891 | 2 |
| 10023987 | 1 |
| 10272299 | 1 |
| 10195249 | 2 |
| 11003980 | 1500 |
Table2
The goal is to obtain a new Column that refer to the On_hand_Qty from Table2 as initial and go subtracting the Req_Qty for each material.
| Material | Re_Creation_D | Reservation_Number | Req_Qty | Running_Stock |
| 10292891 | 7/3/2021 | 563231 | 1 | 1 |
| 10292891 | 10/10/2022 | 2365056 | 1 | 0 |
| 10023987 | 7/3/2021 | 562539 | 1 | 0 |
| 10272299 | 7/3/2021 | 555273 | 3 | -2 |
| 10272299 | 12/24/2022 | 2701112 | 8 | -10 |
| 10272299 | 2/13/2023 | 2944045 | 10 | -20 |
| 10272299 | 2/16/2023 | 2959099 | 1 | -21 |
| 10272299 | 3/2/2023 | 3021208 | 5 | -26 |
| 10272299 | 3/9/2023 | 3050715 | 30 | -56 |
| 10272299 | 3/23/2023 | 3117994 | 5 | -61 |
| 10272299 | 4/3/2023 | 3164770 | 5 | -66 |
| 10195249 | 7/8/2021 | 567184 | 1 | 1 |
| 10195249 | 7/8/2021 | 567912 | 1 | 0 |
| 11003980 | 7/8/2021 | 558134 | 750 | 750 |
New Column demonstration
Any help will be highly appreciated.
PD: I don't know how to make the table looks better in the post; the style or the width of each column
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hello, @MirageZX
let
t1 = Excel.CurrentWorkbook(){[Name="Table1"]}[Content],
t2 = Excel.CurrentWorkbook(){[Name="Table2"]}[Content],
lookup_t = Record.FromList(t2[On_Hand_Qty], List.Transform(t2[Material], Text.From)),
f = (t as table) =>
[opening_balance = Record.Field(lookup_t, Text.From(t[Material]{0})),
pos = List.Buffer(List.Skip(List.Positions(t[Material]))),
res = List.Buffer(t[Req_Qty]),
balances =
List.Accumulate(
pos,
{opening_balance - res{0}},
(s, c) => s & { s{c - 1} - res{c} }
),
out = Table.FromColumns(Table.ToColumns(t) & {balances}, Table.ColumnNames(t) & {"Running_Stock"})][out],
gr = Table.Group(t1, {"Material"}, {{"all", each f(Table.Sort(_, "Res_Date"))}}),
z = Table.Combine(gr[all])

Thanks mate! It works!!
This is doable, but why not just do it with a DAX measure (loading both tables into your model).
Pat
Could you please provide the DAX code needed (Power Pivot) or the Power Query alternative?
