Validate voids in columns with dates

Hello, I appreciate your great help to the following query:

I am making a formula to compare the gaps of three columns and that the result returns the value of any of the columns, but I am getting erroneous results.

Attached formula and image with formula.

UNION_FECHAS = SWITCH(TRUE(),
ISBLANK('SQVI@TD1'[SE16N])=TRUE(),
'SQVI@TD1'[MB25],
ISBLANK('SQVI@TD1'[MB25])=TRUE(),
'SQVI@TD1'[SQVI],
ISBLANK('SQVI@TD1'[SQVI])=TRUE(),
'SQVI@TD1'[SE16N])

    I think the logic here is wrong. I think you wanted to take that value if not blank.

     

     

    UNION_FECHAS = 
SWITCH(TRUE(),
NOT(ISBLANK('SQVI@TD1'[SE16N])),'SQVI@TD1'[SE16N],
NOT(ISBLANK('SQVI@TD1'[MB25])),'SQVI@TD1'[MB25],
NOT(ISBLANK('SQVI@TD1'[SQVI])),'SQVI@TD1'[SQVI]
)

     

     

    Note that you need to change the order by yourself.

     

    Your formula was: if the column is blank, give me that.

    My formula is: if the columns is not blank, give me that.
