if date possible switch

[matts29]

Hi 

If someone can assist please?

I would like to say in 1 column the below please?

The rdate contains a series of dates in the past and the future.

rdate = last order over 2 and a half years ago then 1

rdate=  should be re-ordered within 6 months then 2

rdate= order last reviewed less than 2 and a half years ago then 3

Thank you

Hi @matts29 ,

Can you try this?

rdateCalc =
VAR __Difference =
    DATEDIFF ( MAXX ( 'SomeDateTable', 'SomeDateTable'[rdate] ), TODAY (), DAY )
VAR __Result =
    IF (
        __Difference > 913,
        1,
        IF (
            __Difference < 913
                && __Difference > 0,
            3,
            IF ( __Difference < 0 && __Difference > -180, 2, BLANK () )
        )
    )
RETURN
    __Result

Hi @matts29,

Can you show the formula and some sample data?

[matts29]

sure this is the adjusted formula

VAR __Difference =
    DATEDIFF ( MAXX ( 'SomeDateTable', 'SomeDateTable'[rdate] ), TODAY (), DAY )
VAR __Result =
    IF (
        __Difference > 913,
        1,
        IF (
            __Difference < 913
                && __Difference > 0,
            3,
            IF ( __Difference < 0 && __Difference > -180, 2, BLANK () )
        )
    )
RETURN
    __Result

This s the sample data from the date table

Hi @matts29 ,

Are you using the formula in Calculated column or measure?

[matts29]

In a calculated column?

[govindarajan_d · Accepted solution]

Ok. I wrote the formula for a measure actually. 

Please use the following for calculated column:

rdateCalc =
VAR __Difference =
    DATEDIFF ( 'SomeDateTable'[rdate], TODAY (), DAY )
VAR __Result =
    IF (
        __Difference > 913,
        1,
        IF (
            __Difference < 913
                && __Difference > 0,
            3,
            IF ( __Difference < 0 && __Difference > -180, 2, BLANK () )
        )
    )
RETURN
    __Result
