Power Query IF statement

‎10-02-2023 01:48 PM

Hi all  

I have attempted this several ways however cannot get the outcome.

I have a data set where i am trying to apply rules that if before and after certain times it is either afternoon or day rate.

 

if

"Shift Finish" is before or equal to 6 pm = Day rate

"Shift Start” is equal to or after 6 am = Day Rate

"Shift Start" is after 6 pm = Afternoon rate

 

However the shifts where they are over night with a sleepover start and end cause anoomlaies

The 3 pm to 10 pm component is Afternoon rate and the 6 am to 9 am is Day rate.

Any suggestions how I can overcome this?

 

Thanks

@Babycakes , A new column in the power query

 

Shift Rate =
if [Shift Start] >= #time(6, 0, 0) and [Shift Finish] <= #time(18, 0, 0) then "Day Rate"
else if [Shift Start] >= #time(15, 0, 0) and [Shift Finish] <= #time(22, 0, 0) then "Afternoon Rate"
else if [Shift Finish] <= #time(6, 0, 0) or [Shift Start] >= #time(18, 0, 0) then "Day Rate"
else "Invalid Shift"
