Hi,
Im trying to create a new column based on 3 queries? I basically want to say if it contains this then bring back that:
So if it contains 123 its Test1, 456 its Test 2 else Test 3
NewColumnName =
IF(
'NewColumnName'[SERVICE_TYPE] = 123,
"Test1",
IF(
'NewColumnName'[SERVICE_TYPE] = 456,
"Test2",
"Test3"
)
)
Thanks in advance
Solved! Go to Solution.
Try this:
NewColumnName =
IF(
CONTAINSSTRING('NewColumnName'[SERVICE_TYPE], "123"),
"Test1",
IF(
CONTAINSSTRING('NewColumnName'[SERVICE_TYPE],"456"),
"Test2",
"Test3"
)
)
Amazing, thank you!
You're welcome @dommyw277 🙂
I would also suggest you to use SWITCH instead of nested IFs:
NewColumnName =
SWITCH(TRUE(),
CONTAINSSTRING('NewColumnName'[SERVICE_TYPE], "123"),"Test1",
CONTAINSSTRING('NewColumnName'[SERVICE_TYPE],"456"),"Test2",
"Test3")
What is the type of the column SERVICE_TYPE? Is it Text or Numeric? If it is text you are treating it as a numeric.
Hi, yes its Text - it contains text and numbers?
Thanks. Heres a brief example:
cd6b6eec- Azure
0b4c205 - AZURE 2
Try this:
NewColumnName =
IF(
CONTAINSSTRING('NewColumnName'[SERVICE_TYPE], "123"),
"Test1",
IF(
CONTAINSSTRING('NewColumnName'[SERVICE_TYPE],"456"),
"Test2",
"Test3"
)
)
