Hi guys,
I use this formula to calculate some timeframes.
Timeframe=
SWITCH(TRUE();
Patient[planned dismissal] > TIME(07;00;00) && Patient[planned dismissal] < TIME(15;00;00); TIME(15;00;00);
Patient[planned dismissal] > TIME(15;00;00) && Patient[planned dismissal] < TIME(23;00;00); TIME(23;00;00);
TIME(07;00;00))
It doesn't work, my outcome is always the 'else': 07:00. See image below + expected results. How do I handle this?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @RemiAnthonise ,
The question is about the data although you see the hours only the data behind is date so you need to get onlythe time part of Patient[Gepland ontslagtijd aangepast] column, redo your calculation to:
Tijdsblok ontslag = VAR Hour_Part = TIME ( HOUR ( Patient[Gepland ontslagtijd aangepast] ); MINUTE ( Patient[Gepland ontslagtijd aangepast] ); SECOND ( Patient[Gepland ontslagtijd aangepast] ) ) RETURN SWITCH ( TRUE (); Hour_Part > TIME ( 07; 00; 00 ) && Hour_Part < TIME ( 15; 00; 00 ); TIME ( 15; 00; 00 ); Hour_Part > TIME ( 15; 00; 00 ) && Hour_Part < TIME ( 23; 00; 00 ); TIME ( 23; 00; 00 ); TIME ( 07; 00; 00 ) )
Gives the result below:
I'm not addin the PBIX since it tell me it was done on a previous version so if I send it out to you it will not open.

Check out my blog: Power BI em PortuguêsHi @RemiAnthonise ,
Is the planned dismissal column formatted as time or date?
In the test I have made it work correctly with your calculation.

Check out my blog: Power BI em PortuguêsHi @MFelix ,
Thanks for your reply. I see that in my formula
Timeframe=
SWITCH(TRUE();
Patient[planned dismissal] > TIME(07;00;00) && Patient[planned dismissal] < TIME(15;00;00); TIME(15;00;00);
Patient[planned dismissal] > TIME(15;00;00) && Patient[planned dismissal] < TIME(23;00;00); TIME(23;00;00);
TIME(07;00;00))
the colum Patient[planned dismissal] is based on a conditional column.
Patient[planned dismissal] =
Planned dismissal= IF(Patient[Gepland Ontslagdatum - Copy] = DATE(1900;1;1); NOW(); Patient[planned datetime])
In the image below, you can see the other columns. I've set the column Planned dismissal to 'time'.
So, to summarize: Timeframe is based on a calculated and a conditional column, changed to datatype 'time'.
Hi @RemiAnthonise ,
Is it possible to share a sample file?
As I refer based on my tests everything should match.
