Formula column with IF based on a Choice Column

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by AliceW 280
Hello everyone,
 
I want to build a Formula column in a Dataverse table based on a Choice column. Why isn't it working, please? 
 
If('Org. Level' = 'Org. Level'.L4, "Yes", "No")
 
Of course, 'L4' is one of the values...
 
Thank you so much,
 
Alice

    Compare the choices using the value, I have created a TestChoice column with these choices. In your choices column you will have an option set similar to below
     
     
    In the formula column create a formula similar to below using the value result
     
    If(Value(ThisRecord.TestChoice) = 696680000,"yyy","nnn")

    Hi Ronald,
    'Org. Level' is a Choice column, same as 'Currency'. 
    I'm trying to write that 'if the Org. Level equals L4 for that row, then x).

    This formula seems incorrect is this a record that you are comparing with a column of the record? 'Org. Level' comparing with 'Org. Level'.L4
     
    If('Org. Level' = 'Org. Level'.L4, "Yes", "No")

    Oh, and I select a different Choice column, which is configured exactly the same (single value), it works! 
     
    What is happening? Why can't I see the value drop-down? :( 
     
    If([@Currency].EUR = Currency, "Yes", "No")
