Custom column with multiple If statements for picking row below

Hi!

I'm developing a DAX formula to show the projects that obey the rule below:

 

IF (ACTIVITY = A2  AND STATUS= ENCERRADO) AND (ACTIVITY = A3 AND STATUS= PENDENTE):
COLUMN FORMULA = "TRUE"

ELSE:

BLANK

 

PROJECTACTIVITYSTATUS
P1A1ENCERRADO
P1A2PENDENTE
P1A3PENDENTE
P1A4PENDENTE
P1A5PENDENTE
P2A1ENCERRADO
P2A2ENCERRADO
P2A3PENDENTE
P2A4PENDENTE
P2A5PENDENTE
P3A1ENCERRADO
P3A2ENCERRADO
P3A3ENCERRADO
P3A4PENDENTE
P3A5PENDENTE
P4A1ENCERRADO
P4A2ENCERRADO
P4A3PENDENTE
P4A4PENDENTE
P4A5PENDENTE

 

 

 

CORRECT ANSWER:

 

 

P1A1ENCERRADOJUN 
P1A2PENDENTEA2PENDENTE 
P1A3PENDENTEA3PENDENTE 
P1A4PENDENTEA4PENDENTE 
P1A5PENDENTEA5PENDENTE 
P2A1ENCERRADOA1ENCERRADO 
P2A2ENCERRADOA2ENCERRADOTRUE
P2A3PENDENTEA3PENDENTETRUE
P2A4PENDENTEA4PENDENTE 
P2A5PENDENTEA5PENDENTE 
P3A1ENCERRADOA1ENCERRADO 
P3A2ENCERRADOA2ENCERRADO 
P3A3ENCERRADOA3ENCERRADO 
P3A4PENDENTEA4PENDENTE 
P3A5PENDENTEA5PENDENTE 
P4A1ENCERRADOA1ENCERRADO 
P4A2ENCERRADOA2ENCERRADOTRUE
P4A3PENDENTEA3PENDENTETRUE
P4A4PENDENTEA4PENDENTE 
P4A5PENDENTEA5PENDENTE 

 

How can my dax formula pick up the valeu below the first if statement to show the correct project?

I have made this formula concatenating the  ACTIVITY and STATUS columns, but it doesnt show all the projects because its missing a IF statement

 COND = IF(teste[JUN] = "A2ENCERRADO";"TRUE";BLANK())

    I found a solution

    First I made a calculated column

     

    Column = IF (
    OR (
        AND ( teste[ACTIVITY] = "A2"; teste[ESTATUS] = "ENCERRADO" );   
        AND ( teste[ACTIVITY] = "A3"; teste[ESTATUS] = "PENDENTE" )
    );
    TRUE ();
    FALSE()
)

    And than a measure with a slicer to get only true subjects in a sequence

     

     

    Column 3 = COUNTROWS(filter(teste;teste[Column]=TRUE()))

    Hi, you can try && instead of AND in your formula or can try "AND" dax function: 

     

    = IF (
    AND (
        AND ( ACTIVITY = A2, STATUS = ENCERRADO ),
        AND ( ACTIVITY = A3, STATUS = PENDENTE )
    ),
    TRUE (),
    BLANK ()
)

     

    Let me know if it works

      Hello, thank you for your support, but with this formula every result in the custom column was "False"

       

       

       

      CODIGO = IF (
          AND (
              AND ( teste[ACTIVITY] = "A2"; teste[STATUS] = "ENCERRADO" );
              AND ( teste[ACTIVITY] = "A3"; teste[STATUS] = "PENDENTE" )
          );
          TRUE ();
          BLANK ()
      )

        Are you sure you have to ask with AND? this means all the columns should respond to that condition in order to show true(). Maybe you need an "OR" in some place.

         

         I think you are looking for this:

        = IF (
    OR (
        AND ( ACTIVITY = A2, STATUS = ENCERRADO ),
        AND ( ACTIVITY = A3, STATUS = PENDENTE )
    ),
    TRUE (),
    BLANK ()
)

    You can also use the switch function:

     

    Column =
SWITCH (
    TRUE ();
    'Table'[Activity] = 'A2' && 'Table'[Status] = 'ENCERRADO'; 'TRUE';
    'Table'[Activity] = 'A3' && 'Table'[Status] = 'PENDENTE'; 'TRUE';
    BLANK()
)
