PowerQuery - fill value in column based on condition
- 6 years ago
Hello JakubWiniarczk
I've prepared a solution for you. This involves replacing empty cells with null and then apply a filldown.
Here the code
let Source = #table ( {"Indeks","Description","Value"}, { {"1","Opis1","Test"}, {"2","Opis2",""}, {"3","Opis3",""}, {"4","Opis4",""}, {"5","Opis4","Test2"}, {"6","Opis5",""}, {"7","Opis6",""}, {"8","Opis7","Test3"}, {"9","Opis7",""}, {"10","Opis8",""}, {"11","Opis9","Test4"}, {"12","Opis10",""} } ), ReplaceEmptywithNull = Table.ReplaceValue(Source,"",null,Replacer.ReplaceValue,{"Value"}), FillDown = Table.FillDown(ReplaceEmptywithNull,{"Value"}) in FillDownCopy paste this code to the advanced editor in a new blank query to see how the solution works. If this solution fits your need, copy and past a part of it and implement it in your query

Kudoes are nice too

Hi JakubWiniarczk ,
In power query, we can fill the column down as below.
let Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("Tc69CoAwDATgd8ncwTbp31O4uJWODm5CfX+k8SKdDj5y4VojT472+xozj3M81F2jAJypwAA2EIAYxAXmn6CaoNHOMiAZFEBGj1Xrogp+g5RfbHlFUz627dqg3l8=", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Indeks = _t, Description = _t, Value = _t]), #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Indeks", Int64.Type}, {"Description", type text}, {"Value", type text}}), #"Replaced Value" = Table.ReplaceValue(#"Changed Type","",null,Replacer.ReplaceValue,{"Value"}), #"Filled Down" = Table.FillDown(#"Replaced Value",{"Value"}) in #"Filled Down"Alternatively, We can achieve that by DAX.
Column = VAR a = 'Table (2)'[Indeks] VAR ind = CALCULATE ( MAX ( 'Table (2)'[Indeks] ), FILTER ( 'Table (2)', 'Table (2)'[Value] <> BLANK () && 'Table (2)'[Indeks] <= a ) ) RETURN CALCULATE ( MAX ( 'Table (2)'[Value] ), FILTER ( 'Table (2)', 'Table (2)'[Indeks] = ind ) )Pbix as attached.
Hi JakubWiniarczk ,
In power query, we can fill the column down as below.
let
Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("Tc69CoAwDATgd8ncwTbp31O4uJWODm5CfX+k8SKdDj5y4VojT472+xozj3M81F2jAJypwAA2EIAYxAXmn6CaoNHOMiAZFEBGj1Xrogp+g5RfbHlFUz627dqg3l8=", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Indeks = _t, Description = _t, Value = _t]),
#"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Indeks", Int64.Type}, {"Description", type text}, {"Value", type text}}),
#"Replaced Value" = Table.ReplaceValue(#"Changed Type","",null,Replacer.ReplaceValue,{"Value"}),
#"Filled Down" = Table.FillDown(#"Replaced Value",{"Value"})
in
#"Filled Down"
Alternatively, We can achieve that by DAX.
Column =
VAR a = 'Table (2)'[Indeks]
VAR ind =
CALCULATE (
MAX ( 'Table (2)'[Indeks] ),
FILTER (
'Table (2)',
'Table (2)'[Value] <> BLANK ()
&& 'Table (2)'[Indeks] <= a
)
)
RETURN
CALCULATE (
MAX ( 'Table (2)'[Value] ),
FILTER ( 'Table (2)', 'Table (2)'[Indeks] = ind )
)
