Custom Column multiple column comparison

Hello all.

 

I need to create a new column which will advise if the work order is overdue, but it needs to compare the data in 4 columns (WOSTATUS, IADUEDATE, RWDUEDATE, and TWDUEDATE to make the determination. I do not know how to get the correct syntax as I am new to DAX.

 

The logic needs to be as follows:

IF (IADUEDATE < todays date) AND (WOSTATUS = IADUE) OR

IF (RWDUEDATE < todays date) AND (WOSTATUS = RWDUE) OR

IF (TWDUEDATE < todays date) AND (WOSTATUS = TWDUE)

then "OVERDUE"

 

Your help would be greatly appreciated.

@JoeyF you can do this:

 

Overdue Column = 
IF (
    (Table[IADueDate] < TODAY() && (Table[WOStatus] = Table[IADue]) ||
    (Table[RWDueDate] < TODAY() && (Table[WOStatus] = Table[RWDue]) ||
    (Table[TWDueDate] < TODAY() && (Table[WOStatus] = Table[TWDue]),
    "Overdue",
    "Not Overdue"
)
