Convert an Excel Formula into Dax or Calculation for Power BI

Hello community, 

 

I use a formula in excel to roundown a number and if in case it can't then to give me whatever is there. This is for address numbers. 

 

IFERROR(rounddown(A1,-2),A1

 

I have tried a few times to make this work but I have not been able to do it.

    Hi jvargas1971 ,

     

    According to your statement, I think you are using Power Query in Power BI.

    You can use Try... Otherwise.

    For reference:

    Power Query M code equivalent to "iferror" function

    IFERROR( rounddown([A],2) , [A])
