Help me create Calculated Column
I have a column containing items like A,B,C,D.
I would like to create a calculated column evaluating the following question: If the row of this column is equal to "A" then return 100%, If the row of this column is equal to "B" then return 85% ,
the row of this column is equal to "C" then return 65%, the row of this column is equal to "D" then return 50%. is it possible to do that ?
Column = SWITCH( 'Table'[Item Column], "A", 1, "B", 0.85, "C", 0.65, "D", 0.5 )
And then, format this column as percentage

THANKS So much !
Now is there any way for me to assign these values to specific texts, if I have a character set and want to filter a part of the text of the line does it also work?- SpartaBICommunity Champion
