Hi,
I’m using a SAP Data Set to analyse how many units have we receipted into the Warehouse v’s how many units we loaded to the Van Sales Order of the same line.
Did we load in full or suffer a loss?
My question is:
The delivery ID is SAP is an unique number, I would like to tie this same number into the empty column REF2 for all the TRAN Rows (Van Sales Loadings)
Basically creating a reference/relationship
How do I do that in Power Query?
I have heard of Fill Down option but I want the Unique Reference to repeat down the next column and then again for the next delivery of the next line and so on and so on.
Hope that makes sense
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
Apologies for the delay in replying (Working long shifts this week)
Initially I liked and used @samaguire excellent suggestion, you were spot on with what I was trying to achieve to basically create a Key relationship between Del Ref and Tran entries.
Using the same Conditional Column option was a very useful technique.
I have since solved the same problem in a slightly different approach by adding an additional column known as PO No from SAP and using 'Fill Up approach to achieve the same solution (See Screen shot)
Hope that makes sense and many thanks for your support.
Darren
