Power Query

I want to write a logic in power query.

If the Dispatched Year = current year then null else Dispatched Year.

 

I created a custome column like IF [Dispatched Year] = Date.Year(DateYear.LocalNow()) then null else [Dispatched Year] But it does not work.

 

Thanks

Note that M is case sensitive and your localnow function was wrong.

 

if [Dispatched Year] = Date.Year(Date.From(DateTime.LocalNow())) then null else [Dispatched Year]
