I just lost my Power BI forum virginity

Hi guys and gals,

 

I have a question about a calculated column and if its possible in Power Bi and how it's possible.

 

This is the table.

 

Name -diner A -diner- B time - seats

 

The name is the name of the person that is reserving a seat or multiple seats.

Diner A is standard and if its booked it will say true if not false

Diner B is deluxe. same apply-es here

Time is which time they want to come

Seats how many people are coming.

 

Diner A costs 50 euro

Diner B costs 100 euro

 

How can make an additional column in power Bi that will look at collum diner A and diner B and will calculate the cost?

 

Name -diner A -diner- B time - seats - costs

ABC.    True.     false      18:00   2       50 euro

 

And that it will apply the rule with future reservations.

Power Bi is hooked on the database of the website.

 

Thanks in advance.

If its the wrong part of the forum I'm sorry.

Seems like a calculated column with a forumla like:

 

Column = IF([Diner A] = TRUE(),"50 euros","100 euros")

This assumes if Diner A is false that Diner B is true but you can adjust from here, such as:

 

Column = IF([Diner A] = TRUE(),"50 euros",IF([Diner B] = TRUE(),"100 euros","error"))
