Hi,
I'm looking to create a new calculated column Real Act Min. This will contain the vaues of column actualMinutes but if the values in actualMinutes *1.5 are greater than the corresponding values in column scheduledMinutes then the values in Real Act Min should = scheduledMinutes
Trying this with no luck -> Real Act Min = IF([actualMinutes]>[scheduledMinutes]&&[actualMinutes]*1.5 >[scheduledMinutes],[scheduledMinutes])
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @android1
What i understood from your statement, your formula should be like this and it should work. Sample is the table name of your table.
Real Act Min = IF('Sample'[actualMinutes]*1.5>'Sample'[scheduledMinutes ],'Sample'[scheduledMinutes ],'Sample'[actualMinutes])
Try this one.
Real Act Min = IF('Sample'[actualMinutes]>'Sample'[scheduledMinutes ] && 'Sample'[actualMinutes]*1.5>'Sample'[scheduledMinutes ],'Sample'[scheduledMinutes ],'Sample'[actualMinutes])

That's great Habib, works perfectly.
Thank you.
I forgot one other thing. How would I amend this to incl the condition that if actualMinutes < scheduledMinutes then Real Act Min = actualMinutes.
It can be included but what will be the else part. I mean what will be output of both conditions are false?
Hi Habib,
Output should be actualMinutes if both are false.
Try this one.
Real Act Min = IF('Sample'[actualMinutes]>'Sample'[scheduledMinutes ] && 'Sample'[actualMinutes]*1.5>'Sample'[scheduledMinutes ],'Sample'[scheduledMinutes ],'Sample'[actualMinutes])
