Filter Logic Issue

Hi Folks,

 

I have the following DAX: 

 

Base Salary Grade = Switch(
True(),
Active[Base Salary %] = 0, "-",
Active[Base Salary  %] > 0 && Active[Base Salary %] < .80, "A",
Active[Base Salary  %] >= .80 && Active[Base Salary %] <= 1.20, "B",
Active[Base Salary  %] > 1.20, "C",
"TBD"
)

 

I have a need to exclude from this calculated column grades 100, 101, 102, and 103. The field is called "GRADE"

 

I tried Filter and NOT but it didn't seem to be working right. I must have some order mixed up but can't seem to get it right. Any help would be great please. 

 

Thank you!

Not sure I understand this completely but perhaps:

 

Base Salary Grade = Switch(
True(),
Active[GRADE] = 100 || Active[GRADE] = 101 || Active[GRADE] = 102 || Active[GRADE] = 103,BLANK(),
Active[Base Salary %] = 0, "-",
Active[Base Salary  %] > 0 && Active[Base Salary %] < .80, "A",
Active[Base Salary  %] >= .80 && Active[Base Salary %] <= 1.20, "B",
Active[Base Salary  %] > 1.20, "C",
"TBD"
)

Hi @Greg_Deckler,

 

The logic I posted is a calculated column based on the field "Base Salary %" on the Active table. I'm trying to say do the calculations in the DAX but don't do them when you come across grades 100, 101, 102, or 103. 

 

Hope this helps. 

Many thanks!

 

 

OK, then the above should work, or you would just wrap your SWITCH statement in an IF that checks the GRADES in the same manner (bunch of OR statements)

Ah. That worked. That's totally not the way I was thinking of doing it initially and I overcomplicated it by a ton. I was trying to use a IF, FILTER, NOT statement. Doh. What's sad is that I thought of doing it the way you described but thought that was too easy. LOL. 

 

I need to start taking my own hunches for truth. LOL. Thanks for the help!
