Conditional Column

I have three columns filled with 'yes/no' responses. I want to create a conditional column based on these three columns such that if there are three 'yes', I'll get an output 'this, this, and that'. Is this possible?

Hi @JoshuaOlayori 

 

You can add a custom column with below code. You can add multiple "else if ... then ..." in the if condition statement for the other six outcomes.

 

Example:

if condition1 then outcome1 

else if condition2 then outcome2

else if condition3 then outcome3

else if ... then ...

else ...

if {[Streaming TV],[Streaming Movies],[Streaming Music]} = {"No","No","No"} then "no streaming" else if {[Streaming TV],[Streaming Movies],[Streaming Music]} = {"Yes","Yes","Yes"} then "TV, Movies, Music" else ""

@JoshuaOlayori Can you share sample data and sample output in table format? Or a sample pbix after removing sensitive data.

I want to add a new column called 'streaming'', where if it is no across these 3 columns, output will be 'no streaming'. And if it is yes across the 3, output will be 'TV, Movies, Music'. There are 8 different outcomes: YNY, NYY, ETC.I want to add a new column called 'streaming'', where if it is no across these 3 columns, output will be 'no streaming'.
