column for different values depending on the days of the week

Hello, 

 

I need to generate a "NEW CAGE" column - which will return the value 1 if the value in the "days between" column is 1, and in the case of (only Mondays) the difference in the "days between" column will be equal 1 and 2 (it is very important to generate this 1 in one column

 

currently 1 is returned in the "NEW CAGE" column if the "days between" column is 1 - I used following command NEW CAGE1 = IF(Table1[Days Between] = 1, "1")

 

The day name column contains the names of the days of the week that I generated using the command DayName = Format('Table1'[report date],"dddd")

Hey @TornDigorn ,

 

I'm not completely sure if I understood the Monday case correct.

I understood that on Monday the "days between" can be 1 or 2, on the other days it has to be a 1. Is that correct?

 

In this case the following formula schould work:

NEW CAGE =
SWITCH (
    TRUE (),
    Table1[Days Between] = 1, 1,
    WEEKDAY ( Table1[report date] ) = 2 -- this means Monday
        && (
        Table1[Days Between] = 1 || Table1[Days Between] = 2
        ), 1
)

 

If you need any help please let me know.

Hi, @TornDigorn 

 

You can try the following methods.

Old Cage = SWITCH(TRUE(),
[Days between]=1,1,
[DayName]="Monday"&&[Days between]>=2,1)

Is this the result you expect?

Hey @TornDigorn ,

 

sure, that's just an adaption:

Old Cage =
SWITCH (
    TRUE (),
    Table1[Days Between] > 1, 1,
    WEEKDAY ( Table1[report date] ) = 2 -- this means Monday
        && Table1[Days Between] > 2, 1
)

hello @selimovd 

 

That's thats exactly what i was looking for. Thank you ! 🙂 

 

Could I ask you for help in creating one more formula for the same sheet ?

I need a column named "Old Cage" to return 1 for :

- "days between" greater than 1

- unless it is Monday then "days between" greater than 2

As before, 1's should be displayed in one column

 

Thanks so much in advance !
