Hello!
Does someone have an experience combining if statment with duration in query editor?
I am trying to calculate the lenght of employment, my formula looks like this:
#"Inserted Duration"= Table.AddColumn(#"Added Conditional Column3", "Duration", each if [Employee Status] = "Terminated" then Date.From([Employment Details Termination Date] - [Employment Details Start Date], type duration) else each Date.From(DateTime.LocalNow() - [Employment Details Start Date], type duration)),
My formula is probably completely wrong since the only result I get is "Error".
Appreciate any feedback!
Thank you!
