SUMX IF measure

Hi ,

 

With the IF statements below it says SUMX cannot work with type Boolean. Ive checked the formatting and all is correct.

 

 IF(SUMX(RoomUtilisation, RoomUtilisation[New End Date]>[ParameterEndDate]),1,

IF(SUMX(RoomUtilisation, RoomUtilisation[New End Date]<[ParameterEndDate]),2,

IF(SUMX(RoomUtilisation, RoomUtilisation[New End Date]<= [ParameterEndDate]),3,0

 

Is there a different operator I can use for my measure? New End Date is a column value and the parameter is a measure

@Anonymous , should be like

when you want to display.

measure =
var _max = [ParameterEndDate]
return
Switch( True(), max(RoomUtilisation[New End Date])>_max,1,
max(RoomUtilisation[New End Date])]<[ParameterEndDate],2,
max(RoomUtilisation[New End Date])<= [ParameterEndDate],3,0)

 

Or, this one is only when want to sum that up

 

measure =
var _max = [ParameterEndDate]
return
var _max = [ParameterEndDate]
SUMX(RoomUtilisation, Switch( True(), RoomUtilisation[New End Date]>_max,1,
RoomUtilisation[New End Date]<_max,2,
RoomUtilisation[New End Date]<= _max,3,0))

Your syntax is wrong.

 

Try something like this...

Measure =
SUMX (
    RoomUtilisation,
    IF (
        RoomUtilisation[New End Date] > [ParameterEndDate],
        1,
        IF (
            RoomUtilisation[New End Date] < [ParameterEndDate],
            2,
            IF ( RoomUtilisation[New End Date] = [ParameterEndDate], 3, 0 )
        )
    )
)

 

OR

Measure =
SUMX (
    RoomUtilisation,
    SWITCH (
        TRUE (),
        RoomUtilisation[New End Date] > [ParameterEndDate], 1,
        RoomUtilisation[New End Date] < [ParameterEndDate], 2,
        RoomUtilisation[New End Date] = [ParameterEndDate], 3,
        0
    )
)

Thank you, good sir. I've been racking my brain for days trying to figure this out. Putting the switch inside the sumx made all the difference.
