Hi all,

I've searched around a bunch, but have so far been unable to find a solution. I am trying to replicate the COUNTIFS formula in the Power Query M language. I've gone through several articles, and I keep running into some kind of roadblock with each one. My goal is to replicate the results in the CountIfs column below, but do so using Power Query instead of a formula. Does anyone know how to accomplish this? The best search result that I've found so far was at StackOverflow, but it seems to only be applicable to COUNTIF, and not to COUNTIFS. I would prefer to keep the Company and Subledger data types as Integers, but I'm willing to convert them to text if that is necessary. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!

Excel Facts

Can you sort left to right?
To sort left-to-right, use the Sort dialog box. Click Options. Choose "Sort left to right"
Power Query:
= Table.AddColumn(Source, "Countif", each Table.RowCount(Table.SelectRows(Source, (s)=> (s[Object Account] = _[Object Account]) and (s[Company] = _[Subledger]))))

Thanks for the response, JGordon. However, I don't think it's working correctly. I've checked the results and they're different than what are showing in my CountIfs column. Do you know what might be causing that? This looks really close, just not quite what I need.

Actually, that worked perfectly. All I had to do was switch the Subledger and Company fields and it gave me exactly what I needed. Thank you!!
