Nested IIF statement in Report Builder linked to SSAS data source

MBBIUser — Thu, 23 Dec 2021 21:12:19 GMT

Hi,

I am trying to add a calculated member with the following logic - IIF( [Client].[Client Number] NOT IN 028193, 093386, [Client].[Client Type]=62, [Client].[Client Number] IN 028193, 093386). The purpose is to combine certain client numbers and client type which are two distinct fields and report builder doesn't offer "OR" functionality.

The logic reads if client not equal to 028193 and 093386 then use client type = 62, otherwise, show those two clients.

But I don't know how to do it correctly. If you have any suggestions, please help. Thank you for reading this!

Can you give some example rows for what your calculated member should be? I'm not clear even what data type you intend to return (boolean/integer/text).

FYI, this is not DAX but expressions written in Microsoft Visual Basic.

Hi MBBIUser ,

What is the logic of the calculated member and what is the final result you want? The logic is to combine client number and type 62 if the client number is not 028193 and 09338, otherwise, the original client number (028193 and 09338) is displayed? If you have the following table data, what is the final result you want to display?

In addition, you can refer the following links to get it.

I need client number returned. For the example you have here, I will need 028193, 093386, and 093387 with 028134. I need two values (client numbers returned).

Would you happen to know if there is "OR" function in there that I could use instead?

Thank you!

I need something like this returned. Client numbers, to be specific.

P.S.: that is good to know it is not DAX and MVB instead. Thanks! 🙂

Hi MBBIUser

Use this code to add a new column:

Client Type = If(Client[Client] in {28193,93386,26389,20871},62,blank())
