    Hi, Anonymous 

    Thank you very much for your reply. Sorry for the late reply. Has your problem been solved now? Maybe you can try the following code:

    test = Table.AddColumn(#"Changed Type","Check start1",each 
    if [Actual Start] = null and [Planned Start] =null then 0
    else if [Actual Start] = null and [Planned Start]<= Date.From(DateTime.LocalNow()) then 1
    else if [Actual Start] > [Planned Start] and [Planned Start] <> null then 1
    else if [Actual Start] <> null and [Planned Start] = null then 0
    else if [Actual Start] = null and [Planned Start] > Date.From(DateTime.LocalNow()) then 0
    else if [Actual Start] = null and [Planned Start] < Date.From(DateTime.LocalNow()) then 0
    else 0
    )

     

     

    Best Regards
