Multiplication with a text condition

Hello,

 

i need to multiple the value in a column to a specific value based in a text condition

Ex : IF text = ABC Table1(column1) * 8 else column2 
I need it for 6 different texts, like ABC and ABD and ADE... in the same IF to have the values in the same column

I tried to use some IF DAX and Cond. Column but i none worked.

 

Anyone can give me some help?

Do you mean something like this?

 

NewColumn = IF(Table[Column1] in {"ABC", "CDE", "EFG", "GHI"}, Table[Column2] * 8, Table[Column3])

 

Regards,

Pat
