Filter Pane with if Statement not giving the desired outcome

Hi, below shows the number of jobs. 

Date Day Total InDay OOH
21/01/2023 Sat 128   128
22/01/2023 Sun 18   18
23/01/2023 Mon 620 591 29

 InDay=Working Day and OOH= Out of Hours.  

Each job is determined to be InDay or OOH by the time they start it, though Weekend work is classified as OHH.

I am using two filters:

Filter 1 allows the user to determine what date they wish to examine.

Filter 2 allows the user to choose In Day or OHH.  Below shows the if statement

if([DateWeekDay]='Sat' or [DateWeekDay]='Sun', 'OOH',

if(OutOfHours='Yes' and match([DateWeekDay],'Mon','Tue','Wed','Thu','Fri'), 'OOH',

if(OutOfHours='No' and match([DateWeekDay],'Mon','Tue','Wed','Thu','Fri'), 'In Day','')))

(Note DateWeekDay=WeekDay(PlannedDate))

Below shows my output with OHH at 620 when it should be 29

ok so again i'd look at the solution in your data model.

You're trying to identify if your job is out of hours or In day based on 2 criteria in separate tables.  

I'd create mapping tables to look up the criteria in both those tables then append them to your job table via ApplyMap()

My suggestion is to set your InDay/OOH Flag in your data model against each job start date then your filter on jobs will be applied correctly.

Hi Ogster, I should have mentioned that:

DateWeekDay=WeekDay(PlannedDate) is in Table 1, whilst OutofHours is in Table 2.
