Hi everyone,

Can you help to debug this formula please ?

IF(AND(Tableau_owssvr_1[Project complexity]="simple";Tableau_owssvr_1[Adressed request time]<5);"on-time";IF(AND(Tableau_owssvr_1[Project complexity]="simple";Tableau_owssvr_1[Adressed request time]>5);"delay";IF(AND(Tableau_owssvr_1[Project complexity]="medium";Tableau_owssvr_1[Adressed request time]<10);"on-time";IF(AND(Tableau_owssvr_1[Project complexity]="medium";Tableau_owssvr_1[Adressed request time]>10));"delay";IF(AND(Tableau_owssvr_1[Project complexity]="complex";Tableau_owssvr_1[Adressed request time]<15);"on-time";IF(AND(Tableau_owssvr_1[Project complexity]="complex";Tableau_owssvr_1[Adressed request time]>15);"delay";)))))

Thanks a lot,

Benjamin

Hi @benjaminlvdr,

Agree with MFelix.

Have you solved your problem?

If you have solved, please always accept the replies making sense as solution to your question so that people who may have the same question can get the solution directly.

In addition, you could use this dax format tool to check if your dax formulas have syntax error.

If you still need help, please feel free to ask.

Best  Regards,

Cherry

Hi @benjaminlvdr,

As @parry2k said this is not the best way to have your question answer however I believe I have found your error check the bold part below, you have 2 brackets in the middle of your formula closing it earlier than you need.

IF(AND(Tableau_owssvr_1[Project complexity]="simple";Tableau_owssvr_1[Adressed request time]<5);"on-time";IF(AND(Tableau_owssvr_1[Project complexity]="simple";Tableau_owssvr_1[Adressed request time]>5);"delay";IF(AND(Tableau_owssvr_1[Project complexity]="medium";Tableau_owssvr_1[Adressed request time]<10);"on-time";
IF(AND(Tableau_owssvr_1[Project complexity]="medium";Tableau_owssvr_1[Adressed request time]>10)) <- this bracket is to much
 ;"delay";IF(AND(Tableau_owssvr_1[Project complexity]="complex";Tableau_owssvr_1[Adressed request time]<15);"on-time";IF(AND(Tableau_owssvr_1[Project complexity]="complex";Tableau_owssvr_1[Adressed request time]>15);"delay"Smiley Wink))))

On best practices your formula should be written like this:

Formula =
IF (
    AND (
        Tableau_owssvr_1[Project complexity] = "simple";
        Tableau_owssvr_1[Adressed request time] < 5
    );
    "on-time";
    IF (
        AND (
            Tableau_owssvr_1[Project complexity] = "simple";
            Tableau_owssvr_1[Adressed request time] > 5
        );
        "delay";
        IF (
            AND (
                Tableau_owssvr_1[Project complexity] = "medium";
                Tableau_owssvr_1[Adressed request time] < 10
            );
            "on-time";
            IF (
                AND (
                    Tableau_owssvr_1[Project complexity] = "medium";
                    Tableau_owssvr_1[Adressed request time] > 10
                );
                "delay";
                IF (
                    AND (
                        Tableau_owssvr_1[Project complexity] = "complex";
                        Tableau_owssvr_1[Adressed request time] < 15
                    );
                    "on-time";
                    IF (
                        AND (
                            Tableau_owssvr_1[Project complexity] = "complex";
                            Tableau_owssvr_1[Adressed request time] > 15
                        );
                        "delay";
                        ""
                    )
                )
            )
        )
    )
)

don't know what the smiley face in the end represent I placed a "".

But to improve overall legebility and performance you should redo your measure to this:

ttt =
SWITCH (
    TRUE ();
    Tableau_owssvr_1[Project complexity] = "simple"
        && Tableau_owssvr_1[Adressed request time] < 5; "on-time";
    Tableau_owssvr_1[Project complexity] = "simple"
        && Tableau_owssvr_1[Adressed request time] > 5; "delay";
    Tableau_owssvr_1[Project complexity] = "medium"
        && Tableau_owssvr_1[Adressed request time] < 10; "on-time";
    Tableau_owssvr_1[Project complexity] = "medium"
        && Tableau_owssvr_1[Adressed request time] > 10; "delay";
    Tableau_owssvr_1[Project complexity] = "complex"
        && Tableau_owssvr_1[Adressed request time] < 15; "on-time";
    Tableau_owssvr_1[Project complexity] = "complex"
        && Tableau_owssvr_1[Adressed request time] > 15; "delay";
    ""
)

As you can see it's much shorte and easier to read, again the "" on the end should be replace by what you have on your smiley face.
