IF Statements

[Anonymous]

Hi All,

Trying to convert this formula from Excel and Power BI and not too sure how.

=IF([@SNStatus2]="OPEN","Outstanding Due",
IF([@ReceiptDate]<=[@[Due Date]],"On Time","Overdue Completion"))


Tried the following on Power BI but it doesn't work:

IF([SNStatus2]="Open","Open",

IF ([SNStatus2]="Closed","Outstanding Due",

IF([ReceiptDate]<=[Due Date], "On Time", "Overdue Completion")

))

Hi @Anonymous ,

In Power BI Desktop, you can create measures or calculated columns.

The formula you provided belong to the calculated column.

Calculated column =
IF (
    [SNStatus2] = "Open",
    "Open",
    IF (
        [SNStatus2] = "Closed",
        "Outstanding Due",
        IF ( [ReceiptDate] <= [Due Date], "On Time", "Overdue Completion" )
    )
)

Here's the measure you can try. We often use MAX function to reference the current row. The MIN function can also be used, and if it is a numeric type, the SUM function can also refer to the current row.

Measure =
IF (
    MAX ( 'TableName'[SNStatus2] ) = "Open",
    "Open",
    IF (
        MAX ( 'TableName'[SNStatus2] ) = "Closed",
        "Outstanding Due",
        IF (
            MAX ( 'TableName'[ReceiptDate] ) <= MAX ( 'TableName'[Due Date] ),
            "On Time",
            "Overdue Completion"
        )
    )
)
