Help with formula

Talbanese

Hello,

 

I'm trying to get the formula to calculate IIF([Day Span]<=30,1,0) using the formula tool.

 

I'm getting an error saying "Invalid type in operator" I'm sure this is a syntax error but still learning the Alteryx language.

 

Thanks for the help :).

Is [dayspan] a number or a string?  If you are comparing to 30, it needs to be a number. 

 

You are also assigning the values of 0 & 1. Is the new field a Boolean or number?  

 

Thanks,

mark

Thanks Mark,

 

Needed to change the type since it was a number.
