    Hi Anonymous 

    I think I find the reason of this issue.

    Your code is as below.

    X.DIN = IF(Query1[DockInDateTime]="",Query1[VehicleReportingDateTime],Query1[DockInDateTime])

    "" is text format, so you will get error. You can use isblank or blank instead of "".

    Try this code.

    X.DIN = IF(Query1[DockInDateTime]=BLANK(),Query1[VehicleReportingDateTime],Query1[DockInDateTime])

    Result is as below.

     

    Best Regards,
    Rico Zhou

Anonymous  create a Custom Column with 

 

if condition

if 1st column=""  then 2nd column value else 1st column value.

That should help you get all values and can avoid error

      Anonymous You will need to make sure that the two columns used in your true and false returns are both of the same type. Make sure that one is not a text field and the other date for instance.
