Dimension based on a "if" condition

[Anonymous]

Hello,

I have the following table :

ID	Entry date new file	Entry date old file

I would like to add a new dimension : "Deleted" that will show "deleted" if the entry date in the new file is empty or if the entry date in the old file is empty. I tried to create a new dimension directly in the visualisation with the following expression :

- =If((IsNull(Sum([New Total Date début])) OR IsNull(Sum([Old Total Date début]))),1,0)

But it is not working.

Where and how can I create a new dimension ?

Thanks,

Caroline

try this

=If((IsNull(Sum([New Total Date début])) OR IsNull(Sum([Old Total Date début]))=' ',1,0)

or

=If((IsNull(Sum([New Total Date début])) OR IsNull(Sum([Old Total Date début]))='-',1,0)

Hi Caroline,

When you want to add a dimension, the easiest way is to create it in your script as a new field in your table.

in your LOAD you can do :

LOAD ID,

           [Entry date new file],

           [Entry date old file],

           if(len([Entry date new file])=0 or len([Entry date old file])=0,1,0) as Deleted

FROM ...

I test if dates are null with the len() function instead of isnull().
