Hi all,
Actually I am starting to create my first Power BI Reports and therefore I need an if formular.
Unfortunately it is not working as I can only select the data from one of the two tables.
Let me shortly explain what I want to do.
I have two tables.
In both tables is one column with a time which I need for my formular as I want to compare both times.
I created the formular already in excel and there it is working.
If(Table1[Time1]-Table2[Time2]>=0;Text(Time1[Time1]-Table2[Time2];"[hh]:mm");TEXT(-(Table1[Time1]-Table2[Time2]);"-[hh]:mm"))
The formular should compare the both times and show me the difference.
I used the formular text because otherwise Excel can not create "negative time"
The formular is working in Power BI as well but only if the two times are in the same table.
My only question is how I can create this formular in PowerBI by using different tables.
Thanks in advance and best regards
Niclas
Hi darlove,
please find attached some screenshoots
So what I wanted to do is to compare the event date with the delivery appointment time.
The relationship for both tables is the Shipment ID.
The Shipment ID and the Delivery Appointment Time is coming from the table OTM Shipment analysis.
The Event time is coming from the OTM Event analysis.
I tried the formular with time values from one table and then it is working.
