Group by columns

Hi,

I am very begginer and I would like to ask you for advice which and how to use a formule in case below. I have a table with columns:

[User ID] [User name] [Manager ID] [Manager name]

The thing I need is to add a column with name of group. If someone is in column 'Manager name', then should be assign to Group 2, if is only in column 'User name' then Group 1. Of course people can be in both columns (as an employee and people manager).

 

Really count on your expertise and I will be appreciate if you reply my question.

Hi @martazebrowska ,

Try this: 

IF(ISBLANK(tablename[ManagerID]),"Group 1" , "Group 2")

IF(ISBLANK() checks to see if a value is blank and returns a True or False.


Let me know if you have any questions.

If this solves your issues, please mark it as the solution, so that others can find it easily. Kudos are nice too.
