if else condition

I have 2 tables based on cricket data. So 1 table has the data with each match id and other details. So a total of 636 matches and 638 rows. The second table has more in-depth data which shows 20 overs in each match id, each ball per over, and runs per ball per over. So if we consider 6 balls per over and a match with 20 overs, finally we have 636 matches * 20 overs * 6 balls = 76320 rows(76320 balls). including wide balls, we have another extra number of rows.

 

I am trying to calculate the runs per match, and then check how many centuries per match. Therefore, I need to make a new table or measure that checks, if-else statements to conditions similar to those below.

 

if sum(total runs) of (id)>100, then 1,

Elif sum(total runs) of (id)>200, then 2,

elif sum(total runs) of (id)>300, then 3 etc. I am writing here as an English statement.

 

Kindly guide with an option in power bi for the same. I have tried group by, related, calculated, etc, but possibly they are the wrong functions or maybe I am writing the syntax in the wrong way.

 

The below pics show the table's matches and deliveries.

Hi @analystmatt22 ,

 

Measures and calculated columns are based on DAX which means they can't be created in Power Query. In Power Query, we often use M language.

Try to use group by.

The all rows column is to restore previous rows later.

Add a custom colulmn.

If you also want to match the custom column created in deliveries table to matches table. You can merge as follows.

Expand the column you want.
