Hello,
i've a table that i want to filldown, with a condition, based on another column.
it doesn't work
here is my code
= if (#"Colonnes supprimées1"{+1}[Numero client] = #"Colonnes supprimées1"{1}[Numero client]) then Table.FillDown(#"Colonnes supprimées1",{"Nom client", "Prenom client"}) else null
the trouble is that the if statement is not recognized
the left column is my reference et the right the result of the filldown
do you know where i am wrong ?
thanks

let
Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WMjS0sDQ3NFXSUXLJT8kHUsGOQY4eQNrAQt/QQN/IwMBYKVYHWR0U4RG0NDA0tyRLMBYA", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [#"Numero client" = _t, #"Nom client" = _t, #"Prenom client" = _t, #"Date naissance" = _t]),
cols=Table.ColumnNames(Source),
tab=Table.ReplaceValue(Source,"",null,Replacer.ReplaceValue, cols),
#"Grouped Rows" = Table.Group(tab, {"Numero client"}, {{"fill", each Table.FillDown(_,cols)}}),
#"Expanded fill" = Table.ExpandTableColumn(#"Grouped Rows", "fill", {"Nom client", "Prenom client", "Date naissance"}, {"Nom client", "Prenom client", "Date naissance"})
in
#"Expanded fill"
it is not clear your starting point, but I guess you could try to fill.down after group by "numero client":
somethink like this (I didn't tested it)
Table.Group (#"Colonnes supprimées1", "Numero client", { each Table.FillDown(_,{"Nom client", "Prenom client"})})
Hi Rocco,
thanks for your response.
i tried your suggest, but i've the following message :
Expression.Error: We cannot convert a value of type Function to type List.
Details:
Value=[Function]
Type=[Type]i'm pretty new to M and it's not easy for me...
i tried to adapt your code, but without success...
copy and paste you code here ...
paste also the data (dummy version is ok) you need to transform and the expected result.
Paste these as copiable table, please!
here are the dummy data
in red the wanted filldown
when "Numero Client" change, i don't want a filldown anymore
maybe the trouble come from some of my blue values are blank
