IF Condition with IN Function
So I am trying to create a column based off of date column in order to have the quarters line up with my agencies quarters. I can't seem to figure out why it is giving me a token error and expecting a parenthesis.
This is the code written out in case that helps:
if(Date.Month([Date]) in {7,8,9}, "Q1",
if(Date.Month([Date]) in {10,11,12}, "Q2",
if(Date.Month([Date]) in {1,2,3}, "Q3",
if(Date.Month([Date]) in {4,5,6}, "Q4",""))))
It is saying that it is expecting an outer parenthesis in the area I highlighted in red and I can't seem to figure out why!
