IF - True statement text

Hi everyone!

I'm just starting to work with Power BI.

In the desktop version, I've create  new column (Calculated)

So what I need is to create a new column and put values acording to the first column.

 

ie:

Column A has numeric values, from 0 to 1000.

So I need to put in column B:

If Column A is lower than 500, put "Lower than 500", else "Higher than 500"

 

What I use is:

B = IF(Table[A]<500,"Lower than 500","Higher than 500")

 

But it doesn't work.

 

Any idea why?

So how do I go on?

This is weird, can you put a sample data in a pbix file and send it by email, would like to look at my end. I know it seems weird but not sure what else to say?

Don't have the Addtional Setting option

Can you test by changing regional settings to English (USA).

 

Also, can you create a temporary table in PowerBI and test it. Just trying to rule out all the optionsl . All these seems hit and trial but very hard to find the reason since formula is correct.
