I am trying to use a calculated column to return a calculation based on the value of another column but getting a data type error
columns Avg HCR and Results are both formatted as decimal number and the variables have a number format. Any ideas why there is an error?
Solved! Go to Solution.
@Jebilaya , Score *.25 is the number, and else returns as text
Try like
if(<Condition>, (Score *.25) & "" , "yikes")
or
if(<Condition>, format(Score *.25, "###.00"), "yikes")
