Help with error: DAX comparison operations
Hello,
I've been searching this forum for help, but haven't managed to find a solution to my problem. I am trying to create a calculated column called HMG. HMG should equal 1 only if both of the following conditions are met: SAMPLE =1 AND State_Clean = "WA". Otherwise, the value for HMG should equal 0. I'm using the following syntax and getting the following error:
HMG = if(
Interaction_Table[SAMPLE]=1 & RELATED(Client_Table[State_Clean])="WA",1,0)
ERROR: DAX comparison operations do not support comparing values of type Integer with values of type Text. Consider using the VALUE or FORMAT function to convert one of the values.
I would love some help adjusting my syntax to work. SAMPLE is a calculated column so I'm not sure how to tell what type it is, but I'm guessing it's numeric since the values are 1 and 0. I assume State_Clean is a string.
Thank you!!
the syntax for "and" is && , not & (which is a join operator)
