Problems with Fill Down in power query
Hello, good afternoon, I wanted to ask about this error that happens to me when I want to fill down, what happens is that I change the value, there is a difference between what is in the power query and the data. I attach photos.
Column before fill down:
Column after fill down:
At this point everything is fine, but look how the same column appears later in the data.
Everything is supposed to be 812.4 but it changes to 806.61 with no apparent meaning.
Any information is helpful, thank you very much.
Yes, but select your query, go to Home tab > Advanced Editor then copy everything in there:
Then paste the whole lot into the </> code window here.

Hi Ivancito111 ,
How many rows are in your table?
Some Power Query operations cause the table to re-sort into a different order so, if you have a lot of rows rather than just those visible in your screenshot, this may be the case.
You can check by adding an index column (Add Column Tab > Index Column) at the point where everything looks fine, then check/re-sort your index column later when it looks incorrect. You will quickly be able to see if this is a data issue or merely a sorting issue.

Ok. Very difficult to diagnose as-is.
Can you post the M code for your query into a code window (</> button) please?
