Conditional or Custom

Hi There

I have created a Conditional Column however I am still getting the outcome Day where the Shift starts after 3 but ends on the next day (it usually has data in the sleepover column.

 

How can I get the 3 pm to 11 pm component to be Afternoon

But the 7 am to 9 am component to be day.

Kind regards

Hi @Babycakes 

You can put the following code to advanced editor

let
    Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WMrYyMAAihQBfJR0lSyjH0VcpNhYA", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [#"Shift Start" = _t, #"Shift Finish" = _t]),
    #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Shift Start", type time}, {"Shift Finish", type time}}),
    #"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Changed Type", "Custom", each DateTime.From(Text.From([Shift Start]))),
    #"Added Custom1" = Table.AddColumn(#"Added Custom", "Custom.1", each DateTime.From(Text.From([Shift Finish]))+#duration(1,0,0,0)),
    #"Changed Type1" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Added Custom1",{{"Custom", type datetime}, {"Custom.1", type datetime}}),
    #"Added Custom2" = Table.AddColumn(#"Changed Type1", "Custom.2", each List.DateTimes([Custom],Duration.Hours([Custom.1]-[Custom])+1,#duration(0, 1, 0, 0))),
    #"Expanded Custom.2" = Table.ExpandListColumn(#"Added Custom2", "Custom.2"),
    #"Added Custom3" = Table.AddColumn(#"Expanded Custom.2", "Custom.3", each List.Max(
(Table.SelectRows(#"Expanded Custom.2",(x)=>x[Custom.2]>=[Custom] and x[Custom.2]<DateTime.FromText("00:00:00")+#duration(1,0,0,0))[Custom.2]))),
    #"Added Custom4" = Table.AddColumn(#"Added Custom3", "Custom.4", each if [Custom.2]=[Custom.3] then 1 else if [Custom.2]=[Custom.1] then 2 else null),
    #"Filtered Rows" = Table.SelectRows(#"Added Custom4", each ([Custom.4] <> null)),
    #"Added Custom5" = Table.AddColumn(#"Filtered Rows", "Custom.5", each if [Custom.1]<>[Custom.2] then [Custom] else DateTime.FromText("7:00:00 AM")+#duration(1,0,0,0)),
    #"Removed Columns" = Table.RemoveColumns(#"Added Custom5",{"Custom", "Custom.1", "Custom.3", "Custom.4"}),
    #"Reordered Columns" = Table.ReorderColumns(#"Removed Columns",{"Shift Start", "Shift Finish", "Custom.5", "Custom.2"}),
    #"Added Custom6" = Table.AddColumn(#"Reordered Columns", "Custom", each if [Custom.5]>=DateTime.FromText("15:00:00") and [Custom.2]<=DateTime.FromText("23:00:00") then "Afternoon" else "Day")
in
    #"Added Custom6"
