Conditional Column

Hi Folks,

I am working on creating a conditional column like the below:

Condition

Values in new column

contract to expire in 15 days from the current date

 - 15 days

contract to expire in 30 days from the current date

 - 30 days

contract to expire in 60 days from the current date

 - 60 days

contract to expire in 90 days from the current date

 - 90 days

 

I want the new column to be used as a filter/slicer in my report. My desired slicer outcome is

  • if I select 60 days, all contracts expiring from 'today to 60 days in future' should show up.
  • if I select 90 days, all contracts from 'today to 90 days' should show up.

But what I get is:

  • if I select 90 days, I get only contracts expiring between 60 and 90 days

 Can anyone please help me here?

The logic used by me- if [expiry days]>0 and [expiry days]<60 then 60 days
                              if [expiry days]>0 and [expiry days]<90 then 90 days

Hello @Anonymous ,

 

You can achieve the desired result by separately creating column with each of this condition.

Days = DATEDIFF(TODAY(),'Date'[Date],DAY)
 
15 days = if('Date'[Days]<15,"15 days")
30 days = if('Date'[Days]<30,"30 days")
60 days = if('Date'[Days]<60,"60 days")
90 days = if('Date'[Days]<90,"90 days")
 
then combine values of all the column in one column
bridge = COMBINEVALUES("|",'Date'[15 days],'Date'[30 days],'Date'[60 days],'Date'[90 days])
 
create new table like below,
Slicer =
DISTINCT (
UNION (
SELECTCOLUMNS (
'Date',
"Selection", 'Date'[15 days],
"bridge", 'Date'[bridge]
),
SELECTCOLUMNS (
'Date',
"Selection",'Date'[30 days],
"bridge", 'Date'[bridge]
),
SELECTCOLUMNS ('Date',
"selection",'Date'[60 days],
"bridge",'Date'[bridge]
),
SELECTCOLUMNS ('Date',
"Selection",'Date'[90 days],
"bridge",'Date'[bridge]
)))
 
join the twe table by bridge column and use selection column in slicer.

Hello @Anonymous ,

 

try using with:    if [expiry days]>0 and [expiry days]<90 then 90 days

                              if [expiry days]>0 and [expiry days]<60 then 60 days
