I have 2 tables, I want to add a calculated column in Table 1, to show how many License IDs in Table 2.(the yellow column is what I want to add in Spotfire)
for example REF ID=A001, A0002 have one license id in Table 2, A0007 has 2(18845682,ABCDEFG), A0008 has zero
if I do not join these 2 tables, how to meet my needs?
attached two tables, please see the attachment
New requirement, also add the license id to table 1, only display license id when column e =1
#user1994358- An easy way to accomplish this is, add pivot transformation to Table2 which counts LICENSE ID. Now, add this column LICENSE ID_COUNT to Table1 by matching REF ID in both the tables.

Spotfire lookup a value from a calculated column
Below are the screenshots:
Modified Answer:
As per your latest requirement, here is the modified answer.
Using this solution, Table2 need not be pivoted. Instead, add a calculated column get_license to Table2 with the expression below. This expression shows license ID's with license count = 1.
If(Count([License ID]) over ([REF ID])=1,[License ID],null)
Note: You can show LIC_count as a separate column with expression Count([License ID]) over ([REF ID]).
Now, add this calculated column to Table1 by matching REF_ID.
Final output:

I have an Excel file with sales data of 2020 and another one with data for 2021, with lots of rows, so if I copy paste one below the other in the other Excel, I can't use pivot data because too many rows, so I want to merge my 2 Excel files in this way:
First table:
Second table:
Desired final table (in Excel):
Is there any way I can do that with power query or something else in Excel?
Note: my table doesn't have just Sales 2020 in 2021, but also other data, but for simplicity I didn't include it there (example: growth 2020, growth 2021)
So if anyone can help me I will appreciate it a lot!
I would start with 2 queries, each one would just read the rows from First table and Second table respectively.
Then I would start a new query by Reference to the First query.
In this Output query I would add a Merge Queries step, matching the first 3 columns from the First and Second queries. I would set the Join Type set to Full Outer Join.
Next in the Expand step I would return all the columns from the Second table.
Finally I would add 3 columns using the Conditional Column option, to create merged versions of Name, Surname and Month. For example:
= if [Name] = null then [Second.Name] else [Name]
Finally I would remove the un-needed columns, rename and re-order the columns if needed.
I have a series of table that breakdown the users per product usage. I have also created a summary table. In the summary table i want to sum the total number of users on a for each product using the product name to dynamically search there designated table. The product tables are created using the product name with the exception that spaces have been replaced with "_". For Example DynCRMSrvcPrvdr ALNG LicSAPk MVL SAL will have a table name DynCRMSrvcPrvdr_ALNG_LicSAPk_MVL_SAL
For some reason when i try the reference the table and sum column 'count' i get an error
=SUM(INDIRECT(SUBSTITUTE(E4," ","_")&"["&Count&"]"))
The "COUNT" column header name should as well be within the quotation marks. Please try the corrected formula:
=SUM(INDIRECT(SUBSTITUTE(E4," ","_")&"[Count]"))
Hope you'll be able to help me.
I have a table with 11 columns, the first one is a date, the next 9 ones are a way of uniquely identifying data and the 11th is a certain amount of money.
What I'm doing in a pivot table is showing the added amount according to one of the identifiers (lines) and dates (columns).
All is well and quite easy to do in a pivot table. Today though I was told that the amounts in my source table are actually cumulative since the beginning of the year.
What I mean is that there are recurring entries in that table and that if I have an entry with the 9 identifiers in january and the same in february and march for example, the value of the one in february is actually (february-january) and for march (march-february).
I could through the unique identifiers just add a column in my source table to identify and calculate the real amount, but I was wondering if there was a way to do so in the pivot table directly ?
Thanks !
Edit :
Here is a screenshot of a simplified version (only two identifiers)
In the fourth column is the amount I have, and in the fifth the real one, that I have to calculate, it is quite easy with only two columns as identifiers.
The goal here is that the pivot table at the bottom shows the "real" amount without me having to create a new column in my source table.
My example table
You can do it using Calculated Items. But it is cumbersome.
A Calculated Item is just another item that a Pivot Table field can take. It is defined in terms of the other items in the same field. For example, the field Date might have values of Jan17, Feb17, etc. A new calculated item called Difference can be added to the Date field and defined as =Feb17-Jan17. This new Difference item will appear whenever the Date field is used to provide row or column labels and the values displayed for it in the main body of the pivot table will be equal to the corresponding values for Feb17 less those for Jan17.
The discussion below is based (loosely) on the pivot table in the picture accompanying the question.
Calculated Items cannot be calculated on grouped fields, so it will be necessary to ungroup the Date field in the pivot table. This will cause the items in the field to be displayed in the same dd/mm/yyyy format as the source data. Changing these to the custom format of mmmyy makes them easier to work with. In English (rather than French) they get displayed as Jan17, Feb17, etc. using this format.
To add a new Calculated Item to the Date field, select any item in this field and locate the Calculated Item option via the ribbon. This has changed across versions of Excel, in Excel 2010 it is accessed via the "Fields, Items & Sets" button of the "Pivot Table Tools/Options" tab of the ribbon. In later versions it accessed via the "Calculations" button of the same tab. A dialog box will appear as illustrated below.
In the Name: box insert a suitable name such as Feb17Xand in the Formula: box enter =IF(Feb17=0,0,Feb17-Jan17). Click "Add" then "OK". The new Date item labelled Feb17X will appear in the pivot table and will show values of 20, 0 and 0 against projects A, B and C respectively.
Feb17X is the decumulated Date item for February. The IF is necessary because although the Amountvalues are cumulative, they only appear in the source data whenever a new Amount occurs in the month (for example Project B and Department IS has data showing for April and June but not for May).
Similar decumulated Date items can be defined in the same way for the other months.
For March, Mar17X is defined as
=IF(Mar17=0,0,Mar17-(Jan17+Feb17X))
and a new Mar17X item is added to the Date field. Unfortunately, this shows values of -28, 0 and 0 against projects A, B and C, respectively. To get the correct values displayed, it is necessary to add the Department field to the row labels in the pivot table (below the Project field) and then to use the "Collapse Entire Field" operation to stop the detail of the Department field from being visible.
The calculated items for the remaining months are added as expected - that for June is Jun17X and has formula
=IF(Jun17=0,0,Jun17-(Jan17+Feb17X+Mar17X+Apr17X+May17X))
Once the new items have been defined for the Date field, a filter is applied in the pivot table to remove the cumulative items ie, Feb17, Mar17, Apr17, May17 and Jun17. This results in the pivot table displaying the sum of the decumulated values as shown below.
A few points:
The zeroes in the pivot table can be suppressed from display by setting the number format of the Amount field to #
In the larger problem where each Amount is defined by a Date, Project and 8 further field values, the row labels of the pivot table will need to include Project and all 8 of the attribute fields. The latter 8 fields will need to be "collapsed out" of the display.
It is much, much simpler to add a decumulated Amount column to the
source data range rather than using the Calculated Item approach set
out here. Sorting the source data by the 9 attributes (Project
first then the remaining 8) and then by Date makes the task
of decumulation very easy. Simply compare the 9 attributes in a row
with the previous row: if the values are unchanged between the two
rows, subtract the previous row's Amount from the current row's,
otherwise leave the current row's Amount unchanged.
I am Counting on Distinct ID's in a column - this is leading to the sum of the subtotals not equalling the grand total as follows:
What I want to do is rank the Payment Dates in cronological order and select ONLY the highest date to display. In the example above the Grand Total won't change, but the Townville row will not show a Distinct Student Count.
This is a very specific requirement and I'm assuming there's an easy way to do it in DAX - I've tried playing around with both RANKX and MAX but am no closer to solving this.
One last thing - the Rank must be contextual to the Time Filter selected by the user (so if they select 2015 it'd give the second record Rank 1 and the top record wouldn't show. If they select May 2015 it'd give the top record Rank 1 and the second record wouldn't show)
I think this is what you are looking for - I added a calculated column to the PowerPivot model that provides a rank based on the Last Payment Date and the Name of the Student. It will rank the earliest payment for any student as a 1.
The code for the column is as follows:
=RANKX(FILTER(Table1, [Student Name] = EARLIER([Student Name])), [Last Payment Date])
... assuming your table is named "Table1"!
The FILTER is the key that limits the ranking to dates belonging to students with that name only.
Update for Multiple tables
To set up relationships between the tables, go to the "Diagram View" of the model, available in the Home tab of the Power Pivot window.
You can drag fields from one table to the other to create relationships. This will only work if at least one of the fields is unique - it's a good idea to think of the model as a dimensional model, with a tables that acts like a fact and other tables around it that act like dimensions.
From the comment, I would try to get the Payments to act like the fact, and have it link to the Community and Student tables. in this case, you could then have the following code:
=RANKX(FILTER(Table1, Related('Students'[Student Name]) = EARLIER('Students'[Student Name])), [Last Payment Date])
This calculated column would be on your Payments Fact table, and it uses a lookup to a related field.
Note that in this specific case, it would be easier to just run the filter over your Student ID field that is used to lookup the Student name.
is it possible to have a single pivot table that combines 2 worksheets as the data?
For example, first data table will be made up of the following columns:
ID/Details/Category
The second data table will be made up of the following columns:
ID/Customer name
The reason why the 2 tables are not combined is because there may be many customer names to the same customer name.
I want a pivot table that will show me the following things:
1) Be able to sort by ID and see for each ID the details linked to that ID sorted by category
2) Be able to sort by customer name and see the details linked to that customer sort by category.
Thank you for your help.
