Cannot convert the value null to type Logical
I have a conditional column:
if [startdate] >= [validtodate] then 1 else 0
which produces a result. However when I filter on the result column (only to include 1) and then group the result, I'm presented with the above error.
Can anyone please offer a solution?
Many thanks.
Ok, so this is all in Power Query preview screen?
What is the Grouping M code?
Do you have null values in your data?

"when I filter on the result column" - you have created a visual with the column in it? What visual and what else is in it?
"then group the result" - what does this mean? how are you grouping it?

Sorry, no, when I say filter, I mean, once I have the result of the conditional column above then I've filtered that column to only show the '1'.

I've just realised I had null value in one column. There was so much data that it hadn't all loaded so I didn't see it intially, but once I've selected 'load more' it's become visible.
Thank you for your help!
