Need Help with an "if" formula

I need help with an if Formual.  I have a colum that contains a value.  I need to "rate" that value based on if.

If MU Diff >0,1

If MU Diff > .5,2

If MU Diff >1,3

If MU Diff >2,4

otherwise 0

 

What is the DAX Equivleant of that?

You're not too far away.

The syntax for nested IFs in DAX can begin to look messy but you just need some additional commas to separate the clauses.

More importantly, you need to reverse the IF clauses in this case because you will only get two value comparisons using the current order : is MU greater than 0? if yes, then return 1, and the second clause will never get tested for positive numbers e.g. if MU is 0.75

 

so the DAX should look something like

Column = if (MU Diff > 2, 4,
             IF (MU Diff > 1, 3,
                IF (MU Diff > 0.5, 2, 0)))

I deliberately missed a clause for you to put in
