PowerQuery If Statement with Result from Measure of another table

I created a custom table that have 4 different Names. Then I will add a column with a Measure from different tables but with conditional if statement.  See target condition below.

 

Column1

If TextA = TableQueryA_Measure1,

If TextB = TableQueryB_Measure1 .

 

Column2

If TextA = TableQueryA_Measure2,

If TextB = TableQueryB_Measure2.

Tried using below formula but still having some errors using CUSTOM COLUMN. Thanks in advance
Column1= If ([TextColumn0] = "Text1",  TableQueryA_Measure1, TableQueryB_Measure1)

  • This is now ok. I used a SWITCH code instead of IF statement. Worked like a charm.

    It looks like you are trying to use measures (created for visuals in powerbi report view) in Power Query.  That's definitely not possible.

    Maybe if you give more details about what you are trying to achieve I can offer some advice.
