Can somebody help me explaining what's the difference between null and 0 values in Power Query? I want to use the data later on in PowerPivot calculations and I'm not sure if I should leave everything as is, convert null to 0 or the other way around.

Hi Rita,

In Power Query null is an empty cell, whereas a zero is a number. You can load your data as is into Power Pivot and the cells containing null will just appear empty.

Kind regards,

Mynda
