I have 2 nested if else statements and I only get the expected results from the first if statement when I comment out the second if. What am I doing wrong?


If {?@ai_detailed_by} = 1 then
If {r_budget_to_actual_raw_data;1.mdty_name} = "N/A" Then
"Not here1"
Else
"Here1";

If {?@ai_detailed_by} = 2 then
If {r_budget_to_actual_raw_data;1.mdty_name} = "N/A" Then
"Not here2"
Else
"Here2"
 
try this

If {?@ai_detailed_by} = 1 then
(
If {r_budget_to_actual_raw_data;1.mdty_name} = "N/A" Then
"Not here1"
Else
"Here1";
)

Else If {?@ai_detailed_by} = 2 then
(
If {r_budget_to_actual_raw_data;1.mdty_name} = "N/A" Then
"Not here2"
Else
"Here2";
)

//this is optional but you should have a catch_all for data
//that doesn't the above conditions

Else

"Data not Matched";

Also...if it is in a formula that is not associated with grouping the the formula should be prefaced with:
