Good afternoon,
I am struggling here. I tried creating a conditional column or calculated column based on birth year but there is no "BETWEEN" function. I want to say, if Birth Year is between 1927 to 1945 then Mature/Silents ELSE IF Birth Year is between 1946-1964 then Baby Boomer ELSE IF birth year is between..etc You get the picture.
I want it all in 1 column because I have birth year as a column in my table but want to create a new column using that logic above and eventually use it as a slicer. I am stuck! Any help would be appreciated. Please and thank you!
Solved! Go to Solution.
Generation = SWITCH( TRUE(), TableName[Birth Year] >= 1927 && TableName[Birth Year] <= 1945, "Mature/Silents", TableName[Birth Year] >= 1946 && TableName[Birth Year] <= 1964, "Baby Boomer", TableName[Birth Year] >= 1965 && TableName[Birth Year] <= 1980, "Gen X", TableName[Birth Year] >= 1981 && TableName[Birth Year] <= 1200, "Millenial", TableName[Birth Year] >= 2001, "Gen Z/Boomlet", BLANK() )
Anything before 1927 will remain blank with this formula.
Edit: aww, @Vvelarde beat me to it while I was testing something with the new table constructor.

Thank you both!!! I can't believe it was that simple!!! Jeez. I'll keep this one in my back pocket!
Hi, Try with this DAX
Generation = SWITCH ( TRUE (), YEAR ( Table1[Birth Date] ) >= 1927 && YEAR ( Table1[Birth Date] ) <= 1945, "Mature / Silents", YEAR ( Table1[Birth Date] ) >= 1946 && YEAR ( Table1[Birth Date] ) <= 1964, "Baby Boomer", YEAR ( Table1[Birth Date] ) >= 1965 && YEAR ( Table1[Birth Date] ) <= 1980, "Gen X", YEAR ( Table1[Birth Date] ) >= 1981 && YEAR ( Table1[Birth Date] ) <= 2000, "Millenials", "Gen Z / Boomlet" )
Let me know if was helpful
