Conditional If and Logical AND

Error.PNG

I am using a very simple conditional if and logical AND statement to create a calculated field. It says there are no syntax errors but when I apply the formula it gives this error

Expression.Error: The name 'IF' wasn't recognized.  Make sure it's spelled correctly.

 

Please Help!!

Hi @sahameeda90,

 

All functions in Power Query, whether text, logic or anything else, are case sensitive. You should use if...then...else instead. Here a good article about if function in Power Query for your reference.

 

In addition, your current formula with IF and logical AND statement should work when you use it to add a calculate column under Modeling tab in Power BI Desktop. Smiley Happy

THank you @v-ljerr-msft.  They work with lower case and a little change with syntax. I appreciate your help.
