I need to create a list of dates between an Enrollment Date and a Dismissal Date. I can do that with this...
= Table.AddColumn(#"Renamed Columns4", "csActiveCaseDates", each {Number.From([csEnrollDate])..Number.From([csDismissDate])})
Then converting the data type to Date.
Issue I'm having is Some of the Dismissal Dates are null because the cases are still Active, so when I click Close and Apply I get this error...
We cannot apply operator to null and date
How can I modify my add column formula to make the nulls today's date?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi,
Write this custom column formula in the Query Editor and name the column as Revised csDismissDate
=if [csDismissDate]=null then DateTime.Date(DateTime.LocalNow()) else [csDismissDate]
In your formula, refer to this newly created column.
Perfect. Thank you.
You are welcome.
