Range of Values in SSAS Tabular model

Hi Friends,

 

Range of values in SSAS tabular model.
i have table name 'Total' and column is [DiffDays] and values in column are like, 100, 200, 300, 400, 500. when i am writing same if statement in SSAS tabular model it's not supporting. Need help.

below query working in Power bi but not supporting in SSAS tabular model, need help on same below requirement which works in SSAS cube.
Range = if(total[DiffDays]<=100,"0-100",if(AND(total[DiffDays]>100,total[DiffDays]<=300),"101-300",if(AND(total[DiffDays]>300,total[DiffDays]<=500),"301-500","501-above")))

 

Thanks SKM

@Anonymous Are you trying to create a measure or calculated column in SSAS. If you trying to create a calculated column then it will work and i case you are trying to create a measure you need to wrap the column into aggregate function depends on your requirement
Something like this

 

Range = 
VAR _datediff = MAX('total'[DiffDay])
RETURN
SWITCH(TRUE()
                ,_datediff<=100,"0-100"
                ,AND(_datediff>100,_datediff<=300),"101-300"
                ,AND(_datediff>300,_datediff<=500),"301-500"
               ,"501-above")

@Anonymous What is the error message that you are getting?
Please check the data type of DiffDays it should be whole number. You can try a switch statement as well

Range = SWITCH(TRUE()
                ,total[DiffDays]<=100,"0-100"
                ,AND(total[DiffDays]>100,total[DiffDays]<=300),"101-300"
                ,AND(total[DiffDays]>300,total[DiffDays]<=500),"301-500"
               ,"501-above")

3MonthsDiffrnce = If(LastLogin[Diffrnce]>0 && LastLogin[Diffrnce]<4).

 

this i am implementing in SSAS tabular cube. if possible please suggest anyother method to implement.

Thanks a lot for support. 

 

column date type is whole number, and i am using direct column from table.

in Switch statement, Value is considered as Calculated column or measure, it is not accepting direct column. 

would you please help in another way.

Error: not showing column name when i am writing switch DAX. it is showing measure names
