    Hey Smoothbrain,

    If you want to check if a value is in a list of values, you'd use the following syntax: 

    'DataTable'[Staff GUID] IN { "005Mn1234567", 005Mn1234568" }

     

    If you are creating a calculated column, the following pattern might be easier to maintain.

    New Column = 
    SWITCH (
        'DataTable'[Staff GUID],
        "005Mn1234567", "Joe Bloggs",
        "005Mn1234568", "Jane Doe",
        'DataTable'[Staff GUID]
    )
