Hi,
can anyone help me with the below formula? I have in Profit Center column fields: HR01/110022 and 110055 and I would like to get only 11 in the new column. HR01 can change to multiple options so I tried to use Text.Start after "/" but formula doesn't work....

=if Text.Start([Profit Center],5) = "/" then Text.Middle([Profit Center],5,2) else Text.Start([Profit Center],2)

Thanks!

When did Power Query debut in Excel?
Although it was an add-in in Excel 2010 & Excel 2013, Power Query became a part of Excel in 2016, in Data, Get & Transform Data.
Try:

= if Text.Middle([Profit Center],4, 1) = "/" then Text.Middle([Profit Center],5,2) else Text.Start([Profit Center],2)
