Conditional Column

[Anonymous]

Hello! Is it possible for conditional column to copy the value on the designated column? On this column i cant convert it to number since it have N/A on it i need to show N/A on the dashboard but i cant compute its percentage if it is not a number so im thinking to create a conditional column for this one. If that column have "N/A" it will copy N/A but if the column has value in it, it will copy the value and convert it to number. Is it possible? Thanks in advance!

@Anonymous  According to your description, you want to Keep N/A value in QualityFeedback field. Since "N/A" is string value hence issue with compute its percentage. I would suggest do not disturb the existing column and create an additional conditional column for percentage computation purposes.

Thanks

Wow this is genius! but if use the qualityfeedback 2 for my gauge chart. How to show that the agent got an N/A instead of 0?

Hi @Anonymous ,

Power BI is calculated based on columns, so there could be only one data type in one column.

As far as I know, we can show null in number type column in Power BI.

Change the column type to Whole Number. Then you need to use both [QualityFeedback] and [Custom] as conditions in your calculation, due to dax will think blank as 0.
