Dax powerbi legend creating a new column from two columns
In Power BI, you can create a new column in the DAX formula language by combining values from two existing columns. Here are a few ways to do it:
Method 1: Using the &
operator
You can use the &
operator to concatenate the values from two columns. For example:
New Column = 'Table Name'[Column1] & 'Table Name'[Column2]
This will create a new column that combines the values from Column1
and Column2
into a single string.
Method 2: Using the CONCATENATE
function
You can use the CONCATENATE
function to concatenate the values from two columns. For example:
New Column = CONCATENATE('Table Name'[Column1], 'Table Name'[Column2])
This will also create a new column that combines the values from Column1
and Column2
into a single string.
Method 3: Using the COMBINE
function
You can use the COMBINE
function to combine the values from two columns. For example:
New Column = COMBINE('Table Name'[Column1], 'Table Name'[Column2], ", ")
This will create a new column that combines the values from Column1
and Column2
into a single string, separated by a comma and a space.
Method 4: Using a calculated column
You can also create a calculated column using the CALCULATE
function. For example:
New Column = CALCULATE(
'Table Name'[Column1] + 'Table Name'[Column2]
)
This will create a new column that combines the values from Column1
and Column2
into a single value.
Note that in all of these examples, you need to replace 'Table Name'
with the actual name of your table, and Column1
and Column2
with the actual names of the columns you want to combine.
