    You have to ask first for null in order to avoid the comparison between null and dates.

    if [DueDate] = null then 0 else
if [DueDate] <= Date.AddDays
(DateTime.Date(DateTime.LocalNow()), -2) and [ShortListCount] = 0 then 1
else 0

    Be carefull with quotes. If you type "1" the result will be a text 1 and not a number.
