Nested IF to create a column

[Anonymous]

I am trying to create a column using nested if statements but I get the following syntax error.

the original formula I want to replicate is:

=IFS(U11<2;"0-2";U11<4;"2-4";U11<6;"4-6";U11<8;"6-8";U11<=10;"8-10";U11>10;">10")

Thanks for help in advance.

Try to create new custom column in Query Editor, like below.

(IF([COMP SCRAP]<=2) THEN "0-2" ELSE
IF([Comp Scrap]>2 AND [Comp Scrap]<=4) THEN "3-4" 

ELSE "")

(IF (U11<2) THEN "0-2" ELSE
IF(U11<4) THEN "2-4" ELSE
IF(U11<6) THEN "4-6" ELSE
IF(U11<8) THEN "6-8" ELSE
IF(U11<=10) THEN "8-10" ELSE
IF(U11>10) THEN ">10" ELSE "")

in DAX you can try wrapping the text in FORMAT function .e.g

FORMAT("0 - 2","")

Try using "Conditional Column" option in Power Query Editor. It should easily this.

Thanks for the quick response. This solved my problem. @PattemManohar I tried using the FORMAT but still got an error. Have you tried it? Thanks

I couldn't replicate your error, so I assumed FORMAT may help if for some reason your string is not considred text by PowerBI
this code works for me:

Column = IF([Comp Scrap]<= 2, "0 - 2",
    IF([Comp Scrap] > 2 && [Comp Scrap] <=4, "2 - 4",
        BLANK()
    ))
