Hi there,
Trying to post a list of gifts and have a dynamic card drawing from dates added. The goal is to list a range of dates added if there are more than one distinct value for date added. To do this I am using the First and Last Date functions to create that range and if the distinctcount < 1, return the value in the list. However, I am encountering an error in the if false statement where it is saying that 'date added' column is not found but it is found in the if true statement. I can build a function for listing the range separately but when creating this IF statement, I have not been able to crack the code. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
IF(
DISTINCTCOUNT(PA_DGR_Liam[date_added]) > 1,
FIRSTDATE(PA_DGR_Liam[date_added]) &" - "& LASTDATE(PA_DGR_Liam[date_added]),
FORMAT(PA_DGR_Liam[date_added], "MM yyyy")
)
Hi @liammorris
please try
=
IF (
HASONEVALUE ( PA_DGR_Liam[date_added] ),
FORMAT ( VALUES ( PA_DGR_Liam[date_added] ), "MM yyyy" ),
FIRSTDATE ( PA_DGR_Liam[date_added] ) & " - "
& LASTDATE ( PA_DGR_Liam[date_added] )
)
What are the chances you could provide a small test data set along with expected results for a given visual?
