I have my Data Sample as shown in the picture
Sample Data
I want to create a custom column in Power Query Editor which pulls the weight as per the conditions:
All weights should be in Lbs(Pounds) (1 Oz = 0.0625 Lbs)
If Execution Status = Closed Use Gross Weight(Delivery Item)
If Execution Status = Cancelled Use Gross Weight(Sales Document Item)
I tried to create two different columns one for Oz and one for Lbs as per below M Language
Gross Weight(Oz) = if [#"Weight Unit (Sales Document Item)"] = "Oz (Ounce)" and [Execution status] = "Closed" then Value.Multiply([#"Gross weight (Delivery Item)"],0.0625) else if [#"Weight Unit (Sales Document Item)"] = "Oz (Ounce)" and [Execution status] = "Cancelled" then Value.Multiply([#"Gross weight (Sales Document Item)"],0.0625)
But the above shows me an error
and a similar one without the weight conversion for Lbs.
Is there a better way where I can have everything in one Column
Solved! Go to Solution.
OK, I tried out a sample formula and this worked:
= if [profilepercent] = .2 and [userid] = 2 then 1 else if [profilepercent] = .3 and [userid] = 2 then 2 else 3
Looks like you are missing an "else" at the end of your statement. So you have:
if then else if then
You need it to be:
if then else if then else
Hi @Anonymous,
Could you please mark the proper answer as a solution?
