Finally came up with the below calculation which is somewhat as expected.

 

Assignee/Watcher =
SWITCH(TRUE(),
Ticket_View[Isactive] = 1, "Assignee" & " - " & Ticket_View[Username],
Ticket_View[Isactive] = 0, "Watcher" & " - " & Ticket_View[Username],
"NA")

Hi,

 

You can try :

=TRUE()   and   =FALSE()    instead of 1 and 0

Or as the yellow banner says use VALUE(YourColumn) instead of YourColumn directly.

 

and maybe remove UserName ?

or are you trying to concanate the results ?

In this case it shoud be :

UserName & "Watcher"    or  UserName & "Assignee"    as a result in your formula.

 

Can you tell us more ?

Have already tried true/False its not working .

 

I'm trying to create a column where when the below condition meet it gives me "Assignee" and "Watcher"

 

Condition1 : isactive = 1 and then it should give me the username ( Which will be Assignee name)

Condition 2 : isactive = 0 and then also it should give username( which will be watcher)

 

OK so you should remove from your formula the "Watcher" and "Assignee".

It should be :

SWITCH (TRUE(),
IsActive = 1, "Assignee" & UserName,
IsActive = 0, "Watcher" & UserName,
"Not Existing")

Or it could be done in 2 different columns depends on your needs ?
Tell us if it works ?

But the issue if when filtering the data , we've a value "NA" so it can be confusing for a user.
