Hi, I am trying to create a new Quarter column based on the following log below, but seem to be getting the incorrect syntax to enbale this to work. I have tried mutliple things, but just can't work out how to resolve.
quarter_financial_years = VAR __M = MONTH ( comp[comp_date] )
RETURN
if(isblank(comp[comp_date]), blank(),
if(comp[comp_fy_start_month_no] = 7,
__M IN {7,8,9} , "Q1",
__M IN {10,11,12} ,"Q2",
__M IN {1,2,3} , "Q3",
__M IN {4,5,6} , "Q4"),
if(comp[comp_fy_start_month_no] = 4,
__M IN {4,5,6} , "Q1",
__M IN {7,8,9} , "Q2",
__M IN {10,11,12} , "Q3",
__M IN {1,2,3} , "Q4"),
if(comp[comp_fy_start_month_no] = 10
__M IN {10,11,12} , "Q1",
__M IN {1,2,3} , "Q2",
__M IN {4,5,6} , "Q3",
__M IN {7,8,9} , "Q4") ))
