Joining columns in one table

[Nourhassan]

Hello,

I have a problem when I am trying to join some columns from different tables.

I want to show a table with columns from several tables. These tables are in a relationship. When I am inserting all wanted columns into the Dashboard table, then I get for the first rows some empty records. I only want to show rows with merged records and without empty cells. The picture shows the empty rows/cells before showing merged columns.

Thanks,

Nour

Hey @Nourhassan ,

the rows have values for other columns, like "Work Category", for that reason they are showing.

As a quick fix you can select the table and in the filter pane set the value for "ContractorName" to "is not blank":

Then the blank rows for "ContractorName" should be removed from that visual.

If you need any help please let me know.

If I answered your question I would be happy if you could mark my post as a solution ✔️ and give it a thumbs up 👍

Hey @v-yetao1-msft ,

that's in general true, but it wouldn't help in this case.

There are columns that contain data for specific rows, so they would show anyways.
