Hi everyone,
I am a novice and trying to create a measure which filters records where a date column called ETD has no date entry.
The column is formatted as date.
I am getting an error that the syntax is incorrect, so please can someone tell me what is wrong?
Many thanks !
Solved! Go to Solution.
When you use BLANK it is looking for open and close paren after it so BLANK():
m total tasks no etd =
CALCULATE (
COUNTA ( 'SDT Clarity Tasks'[ID] ),
KEEPFILTERS ( 'SDT Clarity Tasks'[Phase] = "Delivered" ),
KEEPFILTERS ( 'SDT Clarity Tasks'[ETD] = BLANK () ),
KEEPFILTERS ( 'SDT Clarity Tasks'[Customer] <> "SAP Concur" )
)
Simple when you know how I guess !
Thank you, it is now working fine which is great.
