Need help to create below DAX command
HI All,
I am very few to PowerBi and still catching up with its various commands. I have a complex requirement from business whereI have to calculate a new column using the formula defined in the image. First I have to filter on status and then based on values calculate the Assessmrt outcome value. Its very tricky for me and hoping someone could guide me in the right direction.

rubulsahu Use a SWITCH(TRUE()...) statement like:
Column = SWITCH(TRUE(), [Global Assessment Outcome] <> BLANK(), [Global Assessment Outcome], [Triage Outcome] <> "Select One", [Triage Outcome], [PreImpAss Outcome] = "SELECT ONE", "NA", [PreImpAss Outcome] )- rubulsahuFrequent Visitor
Hi Greg_Deckler Thankyou so much for the prompt response. But I have to first filter Status Value(col 1) . How I can include If with Switch?
When Status is cancelled then Cancelled
When Status in(
Administrative Update
Global Cross-functional Impact Assessment in Progress
Global Implementation Ongoing
Local Implementation Only (no Global Impact)
Local Implementation (Global Implementation Complete)
Completed PV Policy Activities
) then
Switch

rubulsahu Should be simple:
Column = SWITCH(TRUE(), [Status] = "Cancelled", "Cancelled", [Global Assessment Outcome] <> BLANK(), [Global Assessment Outcome], [Triage Outcome] <> "Select One", [Triage Outcome], [PreImpAss Outcome] = "SELECT ONE", "NA", [PreImpAss Outcome] )This assumes that all other values for Status should go through the rest of the evaluation process. If that is not the case then you could do this:
SWITCH(TRUE(), [Status] = "Cancelled" || [Status] = "Administrative Update" || [Status] = "Global Cross-functional Impact Assessment in Progress", // add more or statements as necessary SWITCH(TRUE(), [Status] = "Cancelled", "Cancelled", [Global Assessment Outcome] <> BLANK(), [Global Assessment Outcome], [Triage Outcome] <> "Select One", [Triage Outcome], [PreImpAss Outcome] = "SELECT ONE", "NA", [PreImpAss Outcome] ), "Something else" )
