Hello Comunity,
I have the folllowing DAX code that is working perfect but would like it in Power Query code. I a more familiar with DAX that's why I had no sucess.
Coincides =
VAR ManualString = SUBSTITUTE ( 'Table'[Manual Serial], " ", "_" )
VAR Length1 = COALESCE ( LEN ( ManualString ), 1 )
VAR T1 = GENERATESERIES ( 1, Length1, 1 )
VAR T2 = SELECTCOLUMNS ( T1, "@Item1", MID ( ManualString, [Value], 1 ) )
VAR T3 = GROUPBY ( T2, [@Item1], "@Count1", COUNTX ( CURRENTGROUP ( ), 1 ) )
VAR CorrectString = SUBSTITUTE ( 'Table'[Correct Serial], " ", "_" )
VAR Length2 = COALESCE ( LEN ( CorrectString ), 1 )
VAR T4 = GENERATESERIES ( 1, Length2, 1 )
VAR T5 = SELECTCOLUMNS ( T4, "@Item2", MID ( CorrectString, [Value], 1 ) )
VAR T6 = GROUPBY ( T5, [@Item2], "@Count2", COUNTX ( CURRENTGROUP ( ), 1 ) )
RETURN
SUMX (
T6,
VAR T7 = FILTER ( T3, [@Item1] = [@Item2] )
VAR Count1 = MAXX ( T7, [@Count1] )
VAR Count2 = [@Count2]
RETURN
MIN ( Count1, Count2 )
)Thank you

Hi @RIBUZ ,
Please try this custom colum.
List.Count(List.Intersect({Text.ToList([Manual Serial]),Text.ToList([Correct Serial])}))
