SWITCH True Logic with dates

Hello, I have the following Switch true statement to determine when a shipment is "in region" or "out of region".

Region = SWITCH(TRUE(), AND (ORIGIN) = "DC081", (TERRITORY) = "ORLANDO" , "IN REGION" , "OUT OF REGION"

This works great. But, now I have a new DC opening for Orlando and I want to show "IN REGION" at the old DC up to March 1st 2019 and "IN REGION" for the new DC after March 1ST 2019. The new DC is "DC091".

Does anyone know of a way to write this? I do not want my time series charts to show in correctly.

Not sure exactly what you are going, but it seems you may need to have multiple conditions, and AND() cannot handle that. Instead use the && operator.

 

So maybe something like this?

Region =
SWITCH (
    TRUE (),
    ORIGIN = "DC081"
        && TERRITORY = "ORLANDO"
        && DATE > DATE ( 2019, 3, 1 ), "IN REGION",
    "OUT OF REGION"
)
