Hi guys,

Any idea how I can wrap this function a “try” statement and if it gives an error then just throw the original value.

= Table.AddColumn(#"Expanded Logistics Brief", "fxRemoveDuplicateString", each fxRemoveDuplicateString([Logistics Brief.Promo Details]))
 

Excel Facts

Move date out one month or year
Use =EDATE(A2,1) for one month later. Use EDATE(A2,12) for one year later.
Try this:
Power Query:
= Table.AddColumn(#"Expanded Logistics Brief", "fxRemoveDuplicateString", 
                        each try fxRemoveDuplicateString([Logistics Brief.Promo Details]) otherwise [Logistics Brief.Promo Details])
