Hi everyone,
I have an excel file with data like this:
| Value A | Values connected |
| Red | Blue; Green; Purple |
| Green | Yellow; Blue |
| Red | Green |
| Yellow | Blue; Green; Red |
| Blue | Yellow; Red |
Now i'd like to make a visualisation (Matrix) in which I see combination intensity between Value A and values B. For example with color intensity or something. How should i handle this within Powerbi?
Thank you a lot!
Regards, Mark
Hi,
I am trying to optimize the following into a single (or least) steps so that I can do the transform on the "target due date" and avoid creating a custom column altogether
What would be the best way?
Thanks,
F
The current query I have is made up of merging multiple tables with some column calculations as well.
Everything works perfectly but their is no structure to the heirarchy.
For example, I have [Year] [Quarter] [Month]
When I put these into a pivot table as columns and only show columns with data, it works fine.
However, if I want each [Month] to show, even if the data is empty, it shows Jan through Dec four times under [Quater], making 48 columns.
How can I create a heirachy so that only certain month sow under certain quarters, and then weeks under months, etc. ?
Hi Guys
I am trying to find a solution that exist in EXCEL (WORKDAYS function) that can do the same thing in Power Query
Below I have a Delivery Date and I want to substract Shipping and WHS days but only days that are working days.
So in column Release date it is substructing all days including Weekends but what I want to acheive is the Releas date WORKING DAYS ONLY that is substrating only working days.
Hopefully you can help me
Thank you for your efforts
| Del date | Shipping | WHS | Substract | Releas date Del date - (shipping +WHS) | Releas date WORKING DAYS ONLY Del date - (shipping +WHS) |
| 27-03-20 | 2 | 3 | 5 | 22-03-20 | 20-03-20 |
| 13-04-20 | 3 | 1 | 4 | 09-04-20 | 07-04-20 |
| 06-04-20 | 4 | 1 | 5 | 01-04-20 | 30-03-20 |
| 02-04-20 | 2 | 2 | 4 | 29-03-20 | 27-03-20 |
| 02-04-20 | 3 | 1 | 4 | 29-03-20 | 27-03-20 |
| 02-04-20 | 1 | 1 | 2 | 31-03-20 | 31-03-20 |

Hi everyone,
My name is Julian and I am a recent user (I am not a programmer) of Power Query with Excel as a tool for data manipulation. Now I am stuck with a step which has taken my several days of google searching with no success. As a result of that search I found you in the Power BI community and I believe you may help me based on your successful background in the community. Please let me introduce you my case:
I have two query tables, table1 has several fields a shown in figure 1. I am trying to add a new column whose values depend of the other columns dynamically. Each cell in this column is the max value in other table’s column, named “Value”. For that purpose I first filter Table2, based on four conditions. Then I get the max value by using List.Max (See formula below). For filtering table2 I have used static values, however, I’d wish to use values contained in each row of table1’s columns. It can be said that Table 1 is a subset of Table 2, where I managed to create a StartDate Column to get a data range. Then a Max value from column “Value” in table 2 can be obtained.
Table 1
(Condition 1) | (Condition 2) | (Condition 3) | (Condition 4) | Result |
Column1 | Column2 | StartDate | EndDate | MaxMinValue |
Data1 | A | 19/03/2020 | 19/03/2020 | 3.4195 |
Data1 | B | 20/03/2020 | 09/04/2020 | 3.4195 |
Data1 | B | 16/01/2020 | 20/03/2020 | 3.4195 |
Data1 | C | 21/11/2019 | 16/01/2020 | 3.4195 |
Data1 | C | 18/11/2019 | 21/11/2019 | 3.4195 |
Data1 | C | 15/10/2019 | 18/11/2019 | 3.4195 |
Data2 | D | 08/03/2019 | 15/10/2019 | 3.4195 |
Formula to add a new column:
Table 2
Column1 | Column2 | Date | Value |
Data1 | A | 09/04/2020 | 20 |
Data1 | A | 08/04/2020 | 19.695 |
Data1 | A | 07/04/2020 | 19.845 |
Data1 | B | 06/04/2020 | 18.17 |
Data1 | B | 03/04/2020 | 16.9 |
Data1 | C | 02/04/2020 | 17.195 |
Data1 | C | 01/04/2020 | 16.985 |
Data2 | D | 31/03/2020 | 17.815 |
Data2 | D | 30/03/2020 | 16.29 |
I would appreciate your valuable help since all my tries have failed. Thank you in advance.

Hi All,
I want to create a Card graph wherein the Score for this specific team for a specific Quarter Shows
Splicers would be Year and Quarter. Then Card shows Score of each team (team A and B)
For the query question, the solution I can think of is that i want to create a column (not a measure since there would be no total calculation of Scores) for Previous quarter Dates. I have a "Logging Date" wherein users log their Score but it's for a previous quarter.
Data sample below is the calculated quarter based on the date:
| Date | Team | Score (1-10) | Year | Prefix |
| 5/2/2019 | Team A | 6 | 2019 | Q2 |
| 5/10/2019 | Team B | 7 | 2019 | Q2 |
| 8/4/2019 | Team A | 6 | 2019 | Q3 |
| 8/15/2019 | Team B | 8 | 2019 | Q3 |
| 10/2/2019 | Team A | 9 | 2019 | Q4 |
| 10/2/2019 | Team B | 9 | 2019 | Q4 |
| 1/3/2020 | Team A | 8 | 2020 | Q1 |
| 1/10/2020 | Team B | 10 | 2020 | Q1 |
I would like to create a column showing that this Score is actually for a previous quarter (see 2 columns below)
| Date | Team | Score (1-10) | Year | Prefix | Prev Qtr | Previous Qtr Yr |
| 5/2/2019 | Team A | 6 | 2019 | Q2 | Q1 | 2019 |
| 5/10/2019 | Team B | 7 | 2019 | Q2 | Q1 | 2019 |
| 8/4/2019 | Team A | 6 | 2019 | Q3 | Q2 | 2019 |
| 8/15/2019 | Team B | 8 | 2019 | Q3 | Q2 | 2019 |
| 10/2/2019 | Team A | 9 | 2019 | Q4 | Q3 | 2019 |
| 10/2/2019 | Team B | 9 | 2019 | Q4 | Q3 | 2019 |
| 1/3/2020 | Team A | 8 | 2020 | Q1 | Q4 | 2019 |
| 1/10/2020 | Team B | 10 | 2020 | Q1 | Q4 | 2019 |
I have tried doing the basic conditional formatting wherein if Quarter shows Q4 then change to Q3, Q3 to Q2, etc. but When doing a splicer for Quarter and Year, the date for 1/3/2020 and 1/10/2020 should be for Q4 2019 not Q4 2020.
I'm not sure if there's any other way around with the final outcome that I want. I'm okay with a different approach.
I am fetching data from a data source which requires me splitup my queries and provide a start and stop time for each fetched block.
It only accepts times as clock ticks.
Question:
Is there a clever and reliable way to convert a date-time stamp and/or a duration to ticks in PowerQuery (M)?
With reliable I mean both:
Which takes into account leap seconds e.c.t..
Which will work with a scheduled refresh (does not require a local component).
Hi the community,
I recieve a dataset very normalized with 2 differents kind of data : D001=Work order Data, D002 = Pumped Volume Data
Data Code TX1_VALUE TX2_VALUE TX3_VALUE TX4_VALUE
D001 Agent1 Equip1 1/1/2020 WO1
D001 Agent2 Equip2 2/1/2020 WO2
D002 Pump1 500 2018 4500
D002 Pump2 600 2019 5000
etc. with many different data code which represent very different types of data (and I have up to 10 TXn_VALUE fields)
For my exemple of course I receive another table with the parameters :
Data Code Field FieldNature
D001 TX1_VALUE AgentCode
D001 TX2_VALUE EquipmentCode
D001 TX3_VALUE WorkOrderDate
D001 TX3_VALUE WorkOrderNumber
D002 TX1_VALUE PumpNumber
D002 TX2_VALUE NomimalVolume
D002 TX3_VALUE Year
D002 TX4_VALUE PumpedVolume
And of course for Power BI, I need to automaticly add field with the "Field Nature" as the name of the data and the related data extract. Something like that :
Data Code AgentCode EquipmentCode WorkOrderDate WorkOrderNumber PumpNumber NomimalVolume Year PumpedVolume
D001 Agent1 Equip1 1/1/2020 WO1
D001 Agent2 Equip2 2/1/2020 WO2
D002 Pump1 500 2018 4500
D002 Pump2 600 2019 5000
I can rename the field of every table/chart of my dashboards but I really want to avoid that...
I'va tested a lot of different solutions but no success.
Any Idea in PowerQuery/M ? (or DAX but I don't believe).
Thanks a lot.

Hello fellow PowerBI nerds,
I have to include in my dashboard the number of Covid-19 cases and deaths in England by Region. Therefore, I have been trying to conenct to the 2 CSV files available on UK Gov website: https://coronavirus.data.gov.uk/ . If you click on the links you will be able to see the CSV are downloading fine and have data.
I have used the Web Conector in Power BI and I am getting the error below. I've been looking online for answers on how I can deal with this but I didn't find anything useful yet. Has anyone experience anything like this before? Is this not a PBI issue but a problem with their website? Would I have to get in touch with them?
Any help would be appreciated!!!

I'm trying to move a dataset up to a dataflow and transferred everything by simply copying the advanced editor and pasting it into blank queries within the dataflow query editor.
After doing this and following login prompts and selecting the on prem gateway for one of the data sources, the preview for each query will refresh and look correct, but when I save and close the dataflow, the refresh itself in the Power BI workspace fails with the following error:
Error: On-Prem execution not supported for entity '[my data]' since it refers to another entity... RootActivityId =[...]
Any help, even a link to "dos" and "donts" of dataflows would be wonderful.
I have a workstation in DomainA, I am needing to pull data from an OData Source located in DomainB. To log into web resources in DomainB, we get redirected to an ADFS login page. The entire environment uses smart cards and PINs, we have no username/Pwd and no user knows their password.
Through a browser, I can access the OData source, it will prompt me for ADFS login when I do(uses a smart card and PIN), and I am there.
On PowerBi Desktop, as soon as it redirects to the ADFS login, the PowerBI call fails, it does not prompt me for Auth or give me any options for authenication. Is there any way to do this with PowerBI Desktop or do I have to build this from a workstation physically located in DomainB?
I’m new to M language and I need help regarding converting JSON data using Power Query. As a whole, the process is working however when a “null” is encountered such as shown in the “list” view below, and the “Extracted Values” function is invoked, not all indexed rows (13) are included in the output string (only 12 rows are past to the string). Therefore, when the Split Column by Delimiter (;) function is invoked the data in the converted table doesn’t aligned properly under the respective headers. To further complicate things, the nulls locations are random and can be more than one.
Question: Is there a way to replace all “nulls” with a value such as a -1? This would retain all 13 rows in the transformation process. I have tried a few of the “list” functions but I could not get any to work…
Any examples would be greatly appreciated!

I have a csv with account number in the format ##-####.
On import PQ is converting some of these account #'s to dates if the first 2 digits are 1-12 and the last 2 digits are a valid day in the month. the rule isn't exactly that, but close.
I dont have control of the source file.
This behaviour occurs right in the source import.
Example:
02-8514 becomes 14-Feb and was converted to 2/14/2020
02-5882 becomes Feb-85 and was converted to 2/1/1985
02-1490 stays as it should
02-1509 stays as it should
ARGHHH!!!!
All my searches come up with the opposite trying to help me convert text to dates.
How do I stop this behavior it seems so rooted!!!
I know this is built on a lot of excels functionality and it was a problem there.

I am a newbie and I am trying to read a folder to bring in multiple csv files into powerbi. I have scowered the community, help files and youtube videos before turning to the forum to resolve an issue that is probably simple but for some reason I cant see to find documenation on.
In converting from file folder, I understand all of the steps needed except for reloading the intial combined table after the sample file has been used to create all of the transformation steps.
Here is where I am stuck:
-I connect to my folder
-I see the list of my files and choose "transform data"
-I click on the "Content" column to combine all of the files an
-I accept the default for using the First File for sample.
-Query Editor opens with the helper queris and an outputed result for the combined files
-I click on the Transform Sample File and make a series of changes that I can see in my applied steps.
-However, the default output does not change when I promote headers and this is where I am stuck. It reflects all the changes until I get to the step where I am promoting a row to be used as headers, the default output no longer is referencing the column names as [Column 1, 2, 3, etc] and its givng me the triangle with an exlamation mark (and on apply and close I get the error message "The column 'Column1' of the table wasn't found".
I am sure its a simple reload of the final output with my applied steps, but I cant seem to find how to make this work (invoke function? what do i put in the parameter box?).
I know its going to be a duh! moment, but I do appreciate if someone can point me in the right direction.
Thanks.
Hello,
I have a dataflow that is connecting to 4 different SP lists, and then appending them. I've tried to create this in both Power Query and in dataflows, and am not able to get it to sucessfully load.
The largest list is about 13k rows and doesn't need to be refreshed. How do I prevent the dataflow from refreshing that table? I've disabled load, but I think it's still trying to refresh the table each time.
I have had to extend several fields to get the lookup valudes - mostly on the people picker fields. if there's a better way, please let me know! I initially expanded out the "fields as text" record and removed everything else, but that was actually taking longer than just expanding the fileds that I needed.
The Last two rows were auto generated.
The BRQ2019 table is the one that doesn't need refreshed - just appended.
Thanks!
