Creating Timebands

Hi

I have a column of days worked for employees and i want to group them into Timebands of  less than 3 months,  between 3 and 6 months and greater than 6 months.

I think i may need to create new measures but i am not sure of the formula needed.

 

any ideas?

    Well, it depends on your data structure. In this (rare) case, you may need a calculated column or a conditional column from Power Query.

    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    You can create measure using DAX below.

     

    Range Judge = SWITCH(TRUE(),MAX(Table1[days])<=90,"less than 3 months", MAX(Table1[days])>90&&MAX(Table1[days])<=180,"between 3 and 6 months", MAX(Table1[days])>180,"greater than 6 months")

     

    Best Regards,

    Amy
