Hi Anonymous
If you want to add a custom column, please try these codes:
= Table.AddColumn(Source, "Custom", each if [Biller Name] = "VTNS" and [BILLING_PERIOD_CD] = "31" then "19" else if [Biller Name] = "VTNS" and [BILLING_PERIOD_CD] = "10" then "1" else [BILLING_PERIOD_CD])If you want to replace values in the original column, please try these codes:
= Table.ReplaceValue(#"Duplicated Column",each [BILLING_PERIOD],each if [Biller Name]="VTNS" and [BILLING_PERIOD]="31" then "19" else if [Biller Name]="VTNS" and [BILLING_PERIOD]="10" then "1" else [BILLING_PERIOD],Replacer.ReplaceValue,{"BILLING_PERIOD"})Here are the complete codes you can copy to a blank query to check the behaviors. I add a duplicate column [BILLING_PERIOD] of column [BILLING_PERIOD_CD] to perform the replace step to make it observed more clearly.
let Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WMjZU0lEKC/ELVorViVYyNEDhmSLzjFDksOiLBAIIzwjOiwUA", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [BILLING_PERIOD_CD = _t, #"Biller Name" = _t]), #"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(Source, "Custom", each if [Biller Name] = "VTNS" and [BILLING_PERIOD_CD] = "31" then "19" else if [Biller Name] = "VTNS" and [BILLING_PERIOD_CD] = "10" then "1" else [BILLING_PERIOD_CD]), #"Duplicated Column" = Table.DuplicateColumn(#"Added Custom", "BILLING_PERIOD_CD", "BILLING_PERIOD"), Custom1 = Table.ReplaceValue(#"Duplicated Column",each [BILLING_PERIOD],each if [Biller Name]="VTNS" and [BILLING_PERIOD]="31" then "19" else if [Biller Name]="VTNS" and [BILLING_PERIOD]="10" then "1" else [BILLING_PERIOD],Replacer.ReplaceValue,{"BILLING_PERIOD"}) in Custom1Kindly let me know if this helps.

Could you tell me 1. What is wrong with my code above since it is an add column if then else statement? 2. Can I add two if statements to cover the change in both bill periods for the one biller rather than two columns?
