Group, Merge or concatenate Table

[Anonymous]

I have to concatenate 4 tables.

Turn this

Table: 2014

Column: ID, Year, Value

Table: 2015

Column: ID, Year, Value

Table: 2016

Column: ID, Year, Value

Table: 2017

Column: ID, Year, Value

in

Table: Years

Colum ID = ID of 2014,2015,2016,2017

Colum Year = Year of 2014,2015,2016,2017

Colum Value = Value of 2014,2015,2016,2017

If is possible in power query

Hi @Anonymous

Are you asking how to achieve this in SQL?

[Anonymous]

No, in power bi

Can I solve with append?

Is it the better pratice?

[TalAruety]

I am not sure what are you aiming for then.

Can you please eablorate?

What  i understand is that you have 4 tables in powerbi model, and you want to union them into a single one using DAX?

Hey,

You can Append as well as Merge using the query-editor ( See image)


Alternatively you can use a DAX formula using the concatenate function.
For more info on this function use this link: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee634811.aspx

Good luck

Or just combine the tables in Power Query (M):

= #"2014"&#"2015"&#"2016"&#"2017"
