@mjackson122 , Try like 

 

In power query

If[office]="A" and ([size]="small" or [size]= "medium" or [size]= "large")
then "normal"
else "xlarge"

 

or

 

If[office]="A" and [size] in {"small", "medium","large"}
then "normal"
else "xlarge"

 

in DAX

If ([office]="A" && [size] in {"small", "medium","large"} ,"normal" ,"xlarge")

Thanks the first one worked. I originally tried the second option you listed but forgot to include "in",

Thanks for your help.
