    && works but the message i have is "DAX comparison operations do not support comparing values of type Text with values of type Date. Consider using the VALUE or FORMAT function to convert one of the values."

     

    I am unable to use the new column for any visualization.

     

    Best,

Can you check whether the below code works or not?
Due status:

 

Due Status= if([end]<=today(),"Overdue", "Not Overdue")

 

Past Due check:

 

PastDueCheck = if([Due status]= "Overdue" and([Project Status]<> "Completed" or [Project Status]<> "Cancelled", "Past Due-Check")

 

 
Or you can do both in a single column.

 

PastDueCheck= if([end]<=today() and ([Project Status]<> "Completed" or [Project Status]<> "Cancelled", "Past Due-Check")

Sure, I will try this. Do I need to format this new column as text?

    My Bad here is the single column code updated

     

    PastDueCheck= if([end]<=today() and ([Project Status]<> "Completed" or [Project Status]<> "Cancelled"), "Past Due-Check")

    Use the above code and confirm,

        Apologied, 
        Can you use && instead of and 
        || instead of OR

        PastDueCheck= if([end]<=today() && ([Project Status]<> "Completed" || [Project Status]<> "Cancelled"), "Past Due-Check")


        And try this code.
