Hey there!
I'm trying to create a custom column using nested ifs, but i'm having a syntax error.
The idea is simple. I think some parenthesis are missing.
Thanks for the help!
Solved! Go to Solution.
Looks like you are mixing DAX and M syntax.
M syntax should look like this:
=if [Nota] <=6 then "Detrator" else if [Nota]>6 and [Nota]<=8 then "Neutro" else if [Nota]>8 then "Promotor" else "error"
DAX would look like:
Column = IF([Nota]<=6,"Detrator",IF([Nota]>6 && [Nota]<=8,"Neutro","Promotor"))

Greg,
Thanks a lot!
I'll try your solution asap, but it looks correctly, I actually mixed both languages.
