Need help with expression

Mats Knutsson — Wed, 07 Aug 2024 14:30:18 GMT

Hi,

I want to add an automatic property to doors depending on which zone the open into. All is fine when the door opens into a zone but when there is no zone (exterior doors) the "to zone" gives <Undefined> and I'd like to change that to "Ext door" or something else but I can't figure out how to do this?

Anyone smarter?

/Mats

IFS

(

CONTAINS (To Zone}; "A" ); "Type 1";

CONTAINS (To Zone}; "B" ); "Type 2";

CONTAINS (To Zone}; "C" ); "Type 3";

CONTAINS (To Zone}; "D" ); "Type 4"

)

Operating system used: Windows

Hi, you could try:

IFS(
CONTAINS (To Zone}; "A" ); "Type 1";
CONTAINS (To Zone}; "B" ); "Type 2";
CONTAINS (To Zone}; "C" ); "Type 3";
CONTAINS (To Zone}; "D" ); "Type 4";
To Zone="";"Ext door")

or maybe this

IFS(
CONTAINS (To Zone}; "A" ); "Type 1";
CONTAINS (To Zone}; "B" ); "Type 2";
CONTAINS (To Zone}; "C" ); "Type 3";
CONTAINS (To Zone}; "D" ); "Type 4";
TRUE; "Ext door"
)

Hope this works out

Nope didn't get it to work.

I can use ISUNDEFINED to give undefined a vale but can't seem to use it in my IFS sequence nor using it before the IFS.

I think I managed...by nesting the IFS into the IF... IF only I could be faster with these expressions...

IF (
ISUNDEFINED(To Zone);
"EXT";
IFS (
CONTAINS(To Zone; "SOV");
"mjuk och fin";
CONTAINS(To Zone; "HALL");
"halltröskel";
CONTAINS(To Zone; "WC");
"das tröskel";
CONTAINS(To Zone; "KÖK");
"köttig tröskel"
)
)
