    Hi Anonymous

    Please pay attention to the bold character, paste the following code in your Advanced editor.

    let
Source = Sql.Database("10.76.62.207", "sagedb"),
dbo_V_OPPORTUNITIES_OIF = Source{[Schema="dbo",Item="V_OPPORTUNITIES_OIF"]}[Data],
#"Replaced Value" = Table.ReplaceValue(dbo_V_OPPORTUNITIES_OIF,"","0.0",Replacer.ReplaceValue,{"OIF_Value_EUR"}),
#"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Replaced Value",{{"OIF_Value_EUR", type number}}),
#"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Changed Type", "Opp_Key", each [Opportunity_ID]&"-"&Date.ToText([Load_Creation_Date])),
#"Changed Type1" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Added Custom",{{"PO_Plan_Receipt _Year", Int64.Type}}),
Startdate=Date.Year(DateTime.LocalNow())-1,
Enddate=Date.Year(DateTime.LocalNow())+3,
#"Filtered Rows" = Table.SelectRows(#"Changed Type1", each [PO_Plan_Receipt _Year] >= Startdate and [PO_Plan_Receipt _Year] <= Enddate)
in
#"Filtered Rows

Hi Anonymous

Could you check the data type of the "date" column? (or the column used before and after the "=<")

In my test, it is of Type Number.

Or could you share the code you used in the Advanced editor so i can analyze where is wrong?

Additionally, how about delete the operator, then re-write it? It seems you use < instead of <=.

 

Best Regards

Maggie

    Hi v-juanli-msft,

     

    Thanks for your reply!

     

    I am using below code :

     

    let
    Source = Sql.Database("10.76.62.207", "sagedb"),
    dbo_V_OPPORTUNITIES_OIF = Source{[Schema="dbo",Item="V_OPPORTUNITIES_OIF"]}[Data],
    #"Replaced Value" = Table.ReplaceValue(dbo_V_OPPORTUNITIES_OIF,"","0.0",Replacer.ReplaceValue,{"OIF_Value_EUR"}),
    #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Replaced Value",{{"OIF_Value_EUR", type number}}),
    #"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Changed Type", "Opp_Key", each [Opportunity_ID]&"-"&Date.ToText([Load_Creation_Date])),
    #"Changed Type1" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Added Custom",{{"PO_Plan_Receipt _Year", Int64.Type}}),
    Startdate=Date.Year(DateTime.LocalNow())-1,
    Enddate=Date.Year(DateTime.LocalNow())+3,
    #"Filtered Rows" = Table.SelectRows(#"Changed Type", each [PO_Plan_Receipt _Year] >= Startdate and [PO_Plan_Receipt _Year] <= Enddate)
    in
    #"Filtered Rows

     

    The data type of 'StartDate' is 'Any'. The data type of 'PO_Plan_Receipt _Year' was Text. I converted it to Whole number. (You can see the 'Change Type1' script code. I tried using "&StartDate&" but still it is not working. If I use hardcoded value "2017" , it works.

    Could you pleas ehelp me on that?

    Thanks!
