    Hi Anonymous 

     

    You can add a new column with below code

    New Column = 
IF (
    'DataTable'[assignment date] = DATE ( 2022, 9, 19 ),
    "Existing emp Initial launch",
    IF (
        'DataTable'[assignment date] > DATE ( 2022, 9, 19 ),
        "Role change",
        IF ( 'DataTable'[assignment date] <= 'DataTable'[hire date], "New Hire" )
    )
)

    Scope = IF(assignment date = 2022/09/19 , "Existing emp Initial launch",
                      IF(assignment date > 2022/09/19, "Role change",
                          IF(assignment date <= hire date, "New Hire")))
