Hi,
Im buidling a financial dashboard based on data from SAP.
My data is a transactional list from SAP where the account number is one of the columns. The issue with my data is that some of the accounts contains a dash "-" in the middle of the account number. I want to remove this dash to be able to change the account number column to "whole number" data type without errors.
Is there a way to remove this dash for all accounts in one step in the query editor, or do i have to manually add a "Replace value" for all the accounts that contain a dash?
Thanks
Solved! Go to Solution.
Just select the account number column, right-click and choose Replace Values. Put "-" in the value to replace and nothing as the replacement. By default, this will match partial cells (not the entire cell).

Thanks, tried this first, but it did not do anything. Had to convert the column to text before replacing. Then converted back to whole number
