Hello,
I wonder if you might be able to help. I am trying to work out a way in PowerBi to return the result in the yellow column below...such as...if the "type" is an employee return a value of zero but if the "type" is a contractor turn the value in the "hours" column.
Thank you,
Sean
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @sean123,
It's an easy one - you can solve your case with a calculation column like this:
Contractor Hours = IF ( [Type] = "Contractor", [Hours], 0 )
Best Regards,
Alexander
