For Power BI version 2.76.5678.782 (December 2019).<\/em><\/p>\n

Function IF() evaluates the expression to TRUE or FALSE and returns the value specified for each outcome.<\/p>\n

Syntax<\/h1>\n

IF(LogicalTest, ValueIfTrue, [ValueIfFalse])<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Parameter<\/td>\nDescription<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
LogicalTest<\/td>\nExpression evaluated as TRUE or FALSE<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
ValueIfTrue<\/td>\nValue returned for TRUE<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
ValueIfFalse<\/td>\nValue returned for FALSE (optional)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

 <\/p>\n

We can use any expression in logical test. We often use different comparison operators.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Operator<\/td>\nDescription<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
=<\/td>\nEqual<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
==<\/td>\nStrictly equal<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<<\/td>\nLess as<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
><\/td>\nMore as<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<=<\/td>\nLess or equal to<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
>=<\/td>\nMore or equal to<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<><\/td>\nNot equal<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

 <\/p>\n

We can test more conditions using and<\/em> or or<\/em> operator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
Operator<\/td>\nDescription<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
&&<\/td>\nAnd<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
||<\/td>\nOr<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Example: one condition<\/h1>\n

Supplies<\/strong> table shows current storage of office supplies.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We want to add a column that would state \u00bbOrder\u00ab for articles that gave Quantity less than 200 and \u00bbDon’t order\u00ab for all else. We select New Column<\/strong> and enter the following formula.<\/p>\n

IF_Example = IF(Supplies[Quantity] < 200, “Order”, “Don’t order”)<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Example: multiple conditions<\/h1>\n

We want to order all articles that have quantity less than 200, but we don’t want to order pens, regardless of quantity. We add another condition.<\/p>\n

IF_Example = IF(Supplies[Quantity] < 200 && Supplies[Name] <> “Pen”, “Order”, “Don’t order”)<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Example: multiple IF conditions<\/h1>\n

We often want to return a third value. In this case we add an IF function to our formula. Let’s say we want to create a column that would state:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • \u00bbOrder\u00ab for articles that have quantity less than 200<\/li>\n
  • \u00bbSell back\u00ab for articles that have quantity equal or more than 1000<\/li>\n
  • \u00bbDon’t order\u00ab for all else<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    We add a new column and enter the following formula.<\/p>\n

    IF_Example = IF(Supplies[Quantity] < 200, “Order”, IF(Supplies[Quantity] >= 1000, “Sell back”, “Don’t order”))<\/p>\n
