SWITCH with Multiple Columns

[TanyaT]

Hello,

I would like for a column to return a value depending on the data present in two seperate columns. Here is my attempt to edit code I found online. I get an error. Any ideas?

Formal Status of Prob Tchrs = (DAX(Switch (True),

[P Calc] = 100 && [# of Formals] >= 1, "DONE",

[P Calc] = 100 && [# of Formals] = 0, "NEEDED",

[P Calc] = 200 && [# of Formals] >= 1, "DONE",

[P Calc] = 200 && [# of Formals] = 0, "NEEDED",)

HI, 

I am not sure how your datamodel looks like, but please try the below to create a new column.

Formal Status of Prob Tchrs =
SWITCH (
    TRUE (),
    [P Calc] = 100
        && [# of Formals] >= 1, "DONE",
    [P Calc] = 100
        && [# of Formals] = 0, "NEEDED",
    [P Calc] = 200
        && [# of Formals] >= 1, "DONE",
    [P Calc] = 200
        && [# of Formals] = 0, "NEEDED"
)

@Jihwan_Kim...Hmmm...the Rename Column message I got was that model names must be non-empty. What does that mean?

Hi @TanyaT 

Thanks for reaching out to us.

One of your column might not have any name. You can give the colum a name in the query editor and try again.

Hi,

Please share your sample pbix file's link, and then I can try to look into it.

Thanks.
