POWER BI DAX BLOGS

Dax Function: TRUE Category: Logical Functions The TRUE function in Power BI is a simple DAX function that returns the logical value TRUE. It is typically used to construct conditional expressions or evaluate logical comparisons. Purpose Serves as a constant for logical evaluations in DAX expressions. Used in combination with other logical and conditional functions for creating filters or conditions.

Dax Function: SWITCH Category: Logical Functions The SWITCH function in Power BI is a DAX (Data Analysis Expressions) function used to evaluate an expression against a list of values and return corresponding results. It simplifies nested IF statements by allowing a concise syntax for multiple conditions. Purpose Streamlines decision-making logic when there are multiple conditions. Reduces the complexity and redundancy

Dax Function: OR Category: Logical Functions The OR function in Power BI is a logical DAX (Data Analysis Expressions) function used to evaluate multiple conditions. It returns TRUE if at least one of the conditions evaluates to TRUE; otherwise, it returns FALSE. Purpose To combine multiple logical tests into a single condition. Simplifies decision-making logic when either of several conditions

Dax Function: NOT Category: Logical Functions The NOT function in Power BI is a logical DAX (Data Analysis Expressions) function that inverts a Boolean value. If the input is TRUE, it returns FALSE, and vice versa. Purpose The NOT function is primarily used for logical negation in DAX expressions. It simplifies the creation of logical conditions where the inverse of

Dax Function: IFERROR Category: Logical Functions The IFERROR function in Power BI is a DAX (Data Analysis Expressions) function used to handle errors gracefully in calculations. It evaluates an expression and returns a specified value if the expression results in an error; otherwise, it returns the expression’s result. Purpose The IFERROR function is used to prevent errors from disrupting calculations

Dax Function: IF.EAGER Category: Logical Functions The IF.EAGER function in Power BI is a DAX (Data Analysis Expressions) logical function that evaluates a condition and returns one value if the condition is TRUE and another if it is FALSE. Unlike the standard IF function, IF.EAGER evaluates both the value_if_true and value_if_false arguments before determining the result. Purpose: It provides similar

Dax Function: IF Category: Logical Functions The IF function in Power BI is a logical DAX function that evaluates a specified condition and returns one value if the condition is TRUE and another value if the condition is FALSE. Purpose: Enables conditional logic in DAX calculations. Simplifies decision-making processes in calculated columns, measures, or expressions. Type of Calculations: Performs logical

Dax Function: FALSE Category: Logical Functions The FALSE function in Power BI is a DAX function that returns the logical value FALSE. It is commonly used in logical expressions, comparisons, and conditional calculations to represent a Boolean value explicitly. Purpose: Provides a simple way to define a FALSE Boolean value. Used in logical expressions and conditional statements for decision-making processes.

Dax Function: COALESCE Category: Logical Functions The COALESCE function in Power BI is a DAX function used to handle null or blank values by returning the first non-blank value from a list of inputs. It ensures data integrity by replacing blank or null values with predefined defaults or alternative values. Purpose: Provides a way to deal with missing data in

Dax Function: BITXOR Category: Logical Functions The BITXOR function in Power BI is a DAX function used to perform a bitwise XOR (exclusive OR) operation between two integers. It evaluates the binary representation of the integers and returns a new integer where the corresponding bits are set to 1 if the bits in the inputs are different, and 0 if

Dax Function: BITRSHIFT Category: Logical Functions The BITRSHIFT function in Power BI is a DAX function used to perform a bitwise right shift operation on an integer. It shifts the binary representation of a number to the right by a specified number of bits. Purpose: The BITRSHIFT function is designed to manipulate binary data by reducing the bitwise value, effectively

Dax Function: BITOR Category: Logical Functions The BITOR function in Power BI is a DAX function used to perform a bitwise OR operation between two integers. This function is useful when working with binary data or creating algorithms that require bitwise comparisons. Purpose: The BITOR function allows combining two binary values using the OR operator, where each bit in the

Dax Function: BITLSHIFT Category: Logical Functions The BITLSHIFT function in Power BI is a DAX bitwise operator that shifts the binary representation of an integer to the left by a specified number of bits. This operation is equivalent to multiplying the integer by 2 raised to the power of the shift value. Purpose: The BITLSHIFT function is designed for operations

Dax Function: BITAND Category: Logical Functions The BITAND function in Power BI is a DAX bitwise operator that performs a bitwise AND operation between two integers. It evaluates each bit in the binary representation of two numbers and returns a number where only the bits set to 1 in both numbers remain set. Purpose: The BITAND function is primarily used

Dax Function: AND Category: Logical Functions The AND function in Power BI is a DAX logical function that evaluates two conditions (expressions) and returns TRUE if both conditions are true; otherwise, it returns FALSE. It is commonly used for conditional logic in calculated columns, measures, and filters. Purpose: The AND function is designed to combine two logical tests and return
