Hello experts,
I have a file: PmtProposal.xls
I also have 3 excel files: tbl1, tbl2, tbl3
I need to show the records from PmtProposal that are NOT IN tbl1, tbl2, tbl3
the match criteria is on invoice no and invoice amt (not company name).
I am not sure what I am doing wrong but the attached power query is returning records that are both IN and NOT IN.
My production file is thousands of records and the attached is a simple example with only 7 records.
I attached the Power Query file (link below since I cant attach a file) and the associated files but I think the linked files path would need to be updated in the PQ.
hyperlink to my OneDrive: PQNotIn.zip
Grateful for the assistance.
My knowledge of PQ is limited.
thank you
Solved! Go to Solution.
I see what my issue was. I applied a lowercase to the invoice number and it changed the format of the column. After I removed the lowercawe format, the output was correct. I know PQ is case sensitive so that is why I put that format on the column but in this case it was the cause of the problem.
