    Hi, smather 

     

    You can try: if text.trim([Phase]) = "Equipment" and [Margin] < 20 then "Below Threshold" else null

    If it doesn’t solve your problem, please feel free to ask me.

     

    Best Regards

Thx smather 

Well without the actual data to hand I think I've suggested everything I'd check.

If % Margin is 30% as shown in your images then the only thing I can think of is that there are some non-prining characters or spaces in the Phase col, but you said that's not the case.

Can you please humour me and double check with this new column

 = Text.Length([Phase])

Regards

Phil
