if/case statement

Hi 

 

Can someone please help.

 

I would like to write a logic in Power BI stating

 

If reviewdate is between today and the next 3 years then 1

If reviewdate is between today and the next 6 months then 2

If reviewdate is between today and the next 18 months then 3

 

all within the same column?

 

Thank you

hi @matts29 ,

 

not sure if i fully get you, supposing you have a data table:

reviewdate
2/7/2024
2/8/2024
8/8/2024
8/9/2024
8/8/2025
8/9/2025
2/8/2027
2/9/2027

 

try to add a calculated column like:

Column = 
SWITCH(
    TRUE(),
    data[reviewdate]<=EDATE(TODAY(), 6), 2,
    data[reviewdate]<=EDATE(TODAY(), 18), 3,
    data[reviewdate]<=EDATE(TODAY(), 36), 1,
    0
)

 

it worked like:
