    Hi,

    Please try writing calculated column formula something like below.

     

    DistanceFromOffice =
    IF (
        0 < 'HR Analytics Data'[DistanceFromHome]
            && 'HR Analytics Data'[DistanceFromHome] < 5,

    The product of 0<'HR Analytics Data'[DistanceFromHome] with be either TRUE or FALSE

     

    But then you are trying to equate this with < 5 which is a number

     

    So your equation is TRUE/FALSE(0<'HR Analytics Data'[DistanceFromHome]) < 5 hence failing

     

    You can use && to give it a context like below as you are giving multiple conditions here

     

    Thanks,

    Ritesh
