Expression Error

Hi,

Can i know the error of below expression "Bad Field Name"

In d Expression i need to count number of holidays between Selected Date (vMinDate) and Last Present Date.

Last Present date taken by substracting a number from Selected Date(vMinDate). That number is coming from "[tttt]" Column. if i use a number insted of "[tttt]" this works well.

Please instruct.

instead of using the column name 'tttt' try using the expression of this column.

This is the expression

Date(vMinDate)-Date(AGGR(MAX((IF(Date(IN_DATE)<=Date(vMinDate) AND NOT ISNULL(CHECK_INTIME),IN_DATE))),EMPLOYEE_ID))

but when it used answer gets zero's and one's only.

Please help

What happens if you ignore the error initially and press ok?

It get's Zero's and one's as answer.

I'm getting error in expression when i used below formular .

In the below IN_DATE   : Working Days

Date(VMinDate)  :Selected date in the Calender Object 

CHECK_INTIME : When employee entered finger mark when entering to work that time will display here 

 

MAX((IF(Date(IN_DATE)<=Date(vMinDate) AND NOT ISNULL(CHECK_INTIME),IN_DATE)))

this works superbly in a separate expression and it gives me the Last Present Date.

But when this use to calculate holidays it gives error in Expression.

Please give me a suggessioon of get the maximum IN_DATE as Last Present date. The Correct method of Aggregating this when it use in  expression

There are two ways to fix the error:
  1. Go to the Excel workbook and change the name of the sheet called “Hello” back to “Sheet1” or.
  2. In either the Advanced Editor or the Formula Bar edit the M code and replace the reference to “Sheet1” with “Hello” in the second step of the query
  3. AdvancedMD
