I am using this to find improperly formatted name suffixes that are all capitalized, but I am wondering if with additional code I can filter out certain suffixes that are properly in all caps. Some examples are in the image below.
SF = IF (
[Suffix] = BLANK (),
BLANK (),
IF(
EXACT(UPPER('132330'[Suffix]), '132330'[Suffix])
, "yes", "no"))
hi , try to work with switch :
SF = SWITCH(
TRUE(),
[Suffix] = BLANK(), BLANK(),
EXACT(UPPER('132330'[Suffix]), '132330'[Suffix]) && NOT(CONTAINS("JR,SR,III,IV,V", UPPER('132330'[Suffix]))), "yes",
"no"
)
@bhelou I get this message: Too few arguments were passed to the CONTAINS function. The minimum argument count for the function is 3.
@bhelou I get this message.
The syntax for 'AND' is incorrect. (DAX(IF ( [Suffix] = BLANK (), BLANK (), IF( EXACT(UPPER('132330'[Suffix]), '132330'[Suffix]) AND NOT(EXACT('132330'[Suffix], "JR.")), "yes", "no" ) )))
I'm also wondering how I would add multiple results to filter out in addition to the "JR." you have in the sample.
Hi , try this :
SF = IF (
[Suffix] = BLANK (),
BLANK (),
IF(
EXACT(UPPER('132330'[Suffix]), '132330'[Suffix])
AND NOT(EXACT('132330'[Suffix], "JR.")),
"yes", "no"
)
)
