Hey,
Trying to create a custom column where it's value is dependent on [ID] and sometimes [Item] to determine a colour.
Any clue why the below is not working? I get an error message that the last 'then' is expecting a bracket?
= Table.AddColumn(#"Removed Spaces", "Custom", each if [ID] = "A" then "Red" else (if [ID] = "B" then "Red" else (if [ID] = "C" then "Red" else (if [ID] = "D" then "Red" else (if [ID] = "E" then "Blue" else (if [ID] = "F" then "Red" else (if [ID] = "G" then "Red" else (if([ID] = ("H") or [ID] = ("I") or [ID] = ("J") or [ID] = ("K") or [ID] = ("L")) then (if [Item] = "Socks" then "Green" else if([Item] = "Shirt" then "Yellow" else [ID]))))
Thank you in advance!
Solved! Go to Solution.
= Table.AddColumn(#"Removed Spaces", "Custom", each
if [ID] = "A" then "Red"
else if [ID] = "B" then "Red"
else if [ID] = "C" then "Red"
else if [ID] = "D" then "Red"
else if [ID] = "E" then "Blue"
else if [ID] = "F" then "Red"
else if [ID] = "G" then "Red"
else if [ID] = "H" or [ID] = "I" or [ID] = "J" or [ID] = "K" or [ID] = "L" then
if [Item] = "Socks" then "Green"
else if [Item] = "Shirt" then "Yellow"
else [ID]
else null
)
Based on my understanding, I recreated this query. Pls use it and let me know if it works or not.
Thanks so much, it worked!
