Custom column

Hi All,

 

I am trying to create a custom column according to following input and expected output.

 

INPUT:

zebra_0-1696358195155.png

 

OUTPUT:

zebra_1-1696358224471.png

 

I want to check if id present in all_ids then get the value from all_unit according to the postion. e.g in the first row, we have id1 at first index then single_unit has 1. in the second row, we have id2 at second position then we get the value 4 in the single unit column and if the value does not exist then newly created column have null.

 

Please help me out.

thanks

zebra

Hi @zebra ,
a column with the following formula should do that job:

Text.Split([all_unit], ","){List.PositionOf(Text.Split([all_ids], ","), [id])}

Hi, @ImkeF 

 

Thanks for the quick reply, it solved the problem partially. I need to add the if condition to see index -1 otherwise it was giving error.

 

thanks
