That might be it... try this

If(Match(Floor(MakeDate(1988) + PURTRANSDATECDP/1440), Today(1), Today(1)-1), 'Waiting for interface run') as ReasonCDP,

May be this

LOAD Date,
If(Match(Date, Today(), Today()-1), 'The date is today or yesterday based on that', 'N/A') as NewField
FROM ...;

If(Match(PURTRANSDATECDP, Today(), Today()-1), 'Waiting for interface run') as ReasonCDP,

didnt work 😞

Would you be able to share a list box with PURTRANSDATECDP field? Also, could you try this

 

If(Match(Floor(PURTRANSDATECDP), Today(), Today()-1), 'Waiting for interface run') as ReasonCDP,

This to make sure that we remove time component if PURTRANSDATECDP is a timestamp
