@bourne2000 can you confirm with a screenshot of the formula bar?

My code appears to be working fine in your example file.

@bourne2000 something like below should work, if I understand your requirement correctly:

Lease Category = 
VAR _Age = DATEDIFF(TODAY(), 'iolp-leases'[Lease date],YEAR)
VAR _Result = 
SWITCH(
    TRUE(),
    _Age >= 5, "5+ years",
    _Age >= 4, "4 years",
    _Age >= 3, "3 years",
    _Age >= 2, "2 years",
    _Age >= 1, "1 year",
    "Less than 1 year"
) 
Return
_Result

@ebeery -Thanks for your reply

 

I checked the calculation is not correct. It shows everything less than one year

That's the same column. I just changed the column name. 

@bourne2000 I'm not sure where you're going wrong either, but linked below is my version of your file with the column added and working correctly.

@bourne2000 In your first screenshot you showed "Lease Expiration Date", but your screenshot above shows "Lease Effective Date" being used.
