    TEST= 
var VVS = SEARCH("VVS"; Warehouse[Item Name]; 1; BLANK())

RETURN
IF(ISBLANK(VVR); "Undefined"; MID(Warehouse[Item Name]; VVS+4; 3))

try to replace BlANK() to 0 in your var statement - MID should have a digit second argument, BlANK() will provide an expected error

or try to obtain MID in if like

IF(ISBLANK(VVR); "Undefined"; MID(Warehouse[Item Name];VVS;3))

Your first solution return same error.

But I can't understand your second idea.

What VVR and "Undefined" in your statement mean?

    it will check - if VVR returns BLANK() value then column wll be equal "Undefined" or anything you want instead. If VVR returns digit it will execute MID() function
