I have a column that is populated with dates from 2018-current date. For business reasons I would Luik to add a column that looks to the value in the cell with the date which is in this format mm/did/yyyy and do the following:
if year=2018 then “Made in 2018”
if year=2019 then “Made in 2019”
the rest I would like to have a value returned that provides me with the quarter and year based on the date field.
Q1 2020 or 2021 depending on the year
Q2 2020 or 2021 depending on the year
Q3 2020 or 2021 depending on the year
Q4 2020 or 2021 depending on the year
this is relatively simple in excel, but in Power query I’m having a hard time with it.

Does the VLOOKUP table have to be sorted?
No! when you are using an exact match, the VLOOKUP table can be in any order. Best-selling items at the top is actually the best.
