Wrong value returned

I am using this Dax statement in a columnto return a text value based on a decimal but it always returns the false value of nothing.  Where have I gone wrong?

 

 

 

Rating2 = SWITCH( TRUE(), [Total Score] < 6, "No change", [Total Score] >= 6 && [Total Score] < 10, "Low", [Total Score] >= 11 && [Total Score] < 15, "Medium", [Total Score] >= 16 && [Total Score] < 20, "Low", "" )

I found the issue, the measure and column will only work on whole numbers not decimals.

Hi @Blaired79 

 

For your question, here is the approach I provide:

 

Here's some dummy data

 

"Table"

If you are creating a calculated column, your code will work.

 

 

Column Rating2 = 
    SWITCH(
        TRUE(), 
        [Total Score] < 6, "No change", 
        [Total Score] >= 6 && [Total Score] < 10, "Low", 
        [Total Score] >= 11 && [Total Score] < 15, "Medium", 
        [Total Score] >= 16 && [Total Score] < 20, "Low", 
        ""
    )

So I'm assuming if you create a measure.

 

Create a measure. Try the following code:

 

 

Measure Rating2 = var _score =  SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Total Score])
RETURN  SWITCH(
        TRUE(), 
        _score < 6, "No change",
        _score >= 6 && _score < 10, "Low", 
        _score >= 11 && _score < 15, "Medium", 
        _score >= 16 && _score < 20, "Low", 
        " "
    )

 

 

Here is the result.

If you still have problems, it is best to provide the pbix file and be careful to delete sensitive data.

The DAX statement is working perfectly fine. I have attached the sample below.
