Hi,

Does this calculated column formula work

=F('Calender Test'[Quarter]="Q1","DB"&YEAR('Calender Test'[Date])+1,IF('Calender Test'[Quarter]="Q4","DB"&YEAR('Calender Test'[Date])+2,'Calender Test'[Quarter]))

hi @SamehElghazaly 

what do you get if you try like:

"IF('Calender Test'[Quarter]="Q1","DB"&FORMAT(DATEADD('Calender Test'[Date],1,YEAR),"YY"),IF('Calender Test'[Quarter]="Q4","DB"&FORMAT(DATEADD('Calender Test'[Date],2,YEAR),"YY"),'Calender Test'[Quarter]))"

I don't see anything wrong with the DAX but you don't need to use 'Calender Test'[Date].[Date], you can just use 'Calender Test'[Date].  Also, it's easier to use a SWITCH statement instead of nested IFs so it would look like this.

Internal Q =
SWITCH (
    TRUE (),
    'Calender Test'[Quarter] = "Q1", "DB" & FORMAT ( DATEADD ( 'Calender Test'[Date], 1, YEAR ), "YY" ),
    'Calender Test'[Quarter] = "Q4", "DB" & FORMAT ( DATEADD ( 'Calender Test'[Date], 2, YEAR ), "YY" ),
    'Calender Test'[Quarter]
)

What output are you trying to get?

am trying to replace all Q1 +2 row year to be shown as (1/1/2022 and Q1 to appear as DB24) in date column
