IF statement with LEN, LEFT & RIGHT formulas
Hello, new to Power Bi, sorry if this is a basic question. I have a column with 2 types of data (lets call it Flight No Colunn) : BA254/BA879 and BA463/548 I have created a helper column that...
i only changed the position of the parentheses
Column 2 = IF(LEN(Table1[Flight No Column]) =11, RIGHT(Table1[Flight No Column], 5), CONCATENATE(LEFT(Table1[Flight No Column], 2), RIGHT(Table1[Flight No Column], 3))
if (LEN(Table1[Column]) = 11, right(Table1[Column],5), CONCATENATE(left(Table1[Column],2),RIGHT(Table1[Column],3)))
is the correct function
With the above code, I can not go to the second step of the if command as shown here:
I am still failing to write down the correct syntax.
Can i kindly ask you to upload your functional Power Bi file?
Can you please share the yellow error message in the screenshot. Also try to copy/paste this :
Column = if (LEN(Table1[Flight No Column]) = 11, right(Table1[Flight No Column],5), CONCATENATE(left(Table1[Flight No Column],2),RIGHT(Table1[Flight No Column],3)))
NipponSahoreunfortunately your code is not working
I can not replicate the working example from BKirsch12
I am uploading my file, would you mind taking a look ?

The error I am getting is this one:
i only changed the position of the parentheses
Column 2 = IF(LEN(Table1[Flight No Column]) =11, RIGHT(Table1[Flight No Column], 5), CONCATENATE(LEFT(Table1[Flight No Column], 2), RIGHT(Table1[Flight No Column], 3))
