Power Query Fuzzy Matching (Automated reconciliation)

Create an automated reconciliation statement using Excel Power Query's Fuzzy Match. This is used when there are differences in spelling.
Important Note:
This is only in Office 365. If you have the perpetual licensed version of Excel 2016, you won't get it. It isn't even in Excel 2019. It will likely exist in Excel 2022 (or whenever they launch another perpetual license version), or you can get today with Office 365. For now, you can practice by downloading Microsoft Power BI Desktop (free) - www.microsoft.com/en-us/downl...

Thanks for explaining in such a simple way. Is it possible to have reconciliation done with invoice number on both tables after matching out the vendor / customer ? ,Also, matching the amount showing any variance in amounts for an invoice number of vendor. If yes do explain. Again, many thanks !

Excellent video! Is there a way do use fuzzy matching to find fuzzy matches in one data set? Like two names spelt differently in the same table

[@marynabatova4867]

I just Added the needed Table to Power Query.. and then duplicated the table on the right hand navi , then compared the same column against itself actually.. it seems to work

[@nth.education]

Will this also work with 500,000+ rows data sets ? Or should we use R/Python for those ?
