Create calculated column using alphabetical range
I am trying to create calculated column in Power BI report.
When,
If State column = " NSW" & First Char of Customer name column = (Present between)"A to F" Then assign name of executive as John,
If State column = " NSW" & First Char of Customer name column= (Present between)"G to K" Then assign name of executive as Kevin,
If State column = " QLD" & First Char of Customer name column= (Present between)"A to F" Then assign name of executive as Reith,
else "other"
Kindly help with the same.
Thank you in advance!!

Thank you amitchandak !!
Some customer names are having numbers at the start Eg. 351 Building pvt , hence it is going into "Others" bucket.
I need to ignore numbers if present at start & should pick first letter of char value.
Thanks!
