Hi, i have a bunch of strings (serial numbers) and i want to categorize them accordingly with a new calculated column
The lenght is important to me, only if the serial starts with AA.
Really hope you can help
Input | Desired output |
AA12345678910 | AA-long |
AA1234 | AA-Short |
AA12345678911 | AA-Long |
AA1235 | AA-Short |
BB123212 |

Hi @FrederikAhring ,
You can create a calculated column as below to get it:
Desired output =
IF (
LEFT ( 'Table'[Input], 2 ) = "AA",
IF ( LEN ( 'Table'[Input] ) <= 6, "AA-Short", "AA-Long" ),
BLANK ()
)
Best Regards

Try this custom column in Power Query:
if Text.Start([Input], 2) = "AA" then
if Text.Length(Text.Middle([Input], 3, Text.Length([Input]))) > 4 then
"AA-Long"
else
"AA-Short"
else
null
