Hi
I would suggest that you use the ISBLANK() check as first condition.
Personally I prefer a SWITCH() to nested IFS(). The code could look like this:Lifecycle = SWITCH(TRUE(), ISBLANK(POC_SBSPN_LIFECYC_ACTUAL[Schd Dt]),"Never Active", POC_SBSPN_LIFECYC_ACTUAL[Schd Dt]>=TODAY()-30,"30DayActive", POC_SBSPN_LIFECYC_ACTUAL[Schd Dt]>=TODAY()-90 && POC_SBSPN_LIFECYC_ACTUAL[Schd Dt] < TODAY()-30, "Inactive", POC_SBSPN_LIFECYC_ACTUAL[Schd Dt]<TODAY()-90,"Dormant", "Other")Hope this helps!

Yes, finally SWITCH is working well. I tested with other conditions as well.
On the other I created a new column to test Isblank having only isblank condition and that is also working but not with other conditions including. Not sure what makes the difference.
