Hi folks,
I hope you all are doing well and at your best health.
I have a doubt in a scenario based question. I have a categorical data - with 8 different categories. I want to flag these categories as 1,2,...8.
I was thinking about using if condition but I need to write if condition 8 times. Is there a better way of doing it? Thanks in advance!

Hi @karma ,
If you don't wish to go with IF condition then you can try SWITCH() in dax. Below is the link for the same.

Please hit the thumbs up & mark it as a solution if this helps you. Thanks.
@karma -> try this:
Result = SWITCH([COLUMNNAME], "A", 1, "B", 2, "C",3, "D",4,"E",5,"F",6,"G",7,"H",8, 0)

Thanks for your quick response @truptis . Is it possible for you to help me writing the measure?
i have a field -Category and within that field i have A, B, C, D, E, F,G & H and I want to number them as 1,2...8 and if no letter is there then mark it as 0.
simply follow this :
MEASURE = SWITCH(TRUE(),
A=?, 1,
B=?, 2,
C=?, 3,
D=?, 4,
BLANK()
)
OR
MEASURE =
IF(A),1,
IF(B),2,
IF(C),3,
IF(D),4,
BLANK()
))))
@karma -> try this:
Result = SWITCH([COLUMNNAME], "A", 1, "B", 2, "C",3, "D",4,"E",5,"F",6,"G",7,"H",8, 0)
Please hit the thumbs up & mark it as a solution if it helps you. Thanks.
