This brilliant feature allows you to clean up any column with similar text, such as misspelt names, different ways of saying it. It uses Power Query but this video can be used by even Power Query novices. It works in either Excel or Power BI using the brilliant Table.AddFuzzyClusterColumn.
Ideally one should use data validation but if not, this method could save hours of data clean up work. I also show how it can be used in dataflows.
I show how to use the code in a table, see similarity % for each match and set the minimum level, override some matches, even have a transformation table to say for example that England should change to the UK.
