Hi! I hope someone can help me with this>
I have two columns: Completion Date and Due Date. I want to add a third column that:
If Completion Date is not empty, then New Column = "Completed". But if Completion Date is empty, I'd like New Column = "On time" or "Past Due" based on Due Date column.
Hope my question makes sense.
Thank you!
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi, @EduardoC
please try something like the below.
the formula is for creating a new column.
New Column CC =
SWITCH (
TRUE (),
'Table'[Completion Date] <> BLANK (), "Cmpleted",
'Table'[Due Date] >= TODAY (), "On time",
'Table'[Due Date] < TODAY (), "past due"
)

This is exactly what I was looking for. Never thought of the SWITCH option. I really appreciate it.
