Welcome to Excel Jet Consult blog post. In this tutorial, we will learn how to use Power Query (Get & Transform) to concatenate and add suffix.
The data below will be used for this tutorial
The first thing we wants to do is to load the data into the Power Query Editor
- To do that: Click anywhere inside the data
- In the Get & Transform Data group of the Data tab, click on From Table/Range
- In the General group of the Add Column tab Click on Custom Column
- In the Custom Column dialogue box, provide Email as New Column Name and execute the formula in the Custom Column Formula: Text.Lower(Text.Start([FirstName],1)&”.”&[LastName]&”@exceljetconsult.com.ng”)
- Click Ok.
We’ve been able to concatenate the FirstName & LastName and added suffix in Power Query
