Values changing before and after merge query

Hi,

Please see attached screenshots. During a merge query (as below) when I expand the final column to pull through the values I want from the "technically capable list" the values in the redacted tables change. 

Does anyone know what is happening here?

Hi,

I have found the answer in a previous thread. The addition of Table.Buffers to my step stopped this from happening.

Please provide sanitized sample data that fully covers your issue. If you paste the data into a table in your post or use one of the file services it will be easier to assist you. Avoid posting screenshots of your source data if possible.

Please show the expected outcome based on the sample data you provided. Screenshots of the expected outcome are ok.
