Beast mode errors in dataset views
Hi,
I am struggling to create a simple beasemode in a datasetview, grouped by quarter.
I am creating a new cost column, containing usd_cost for each account unless it is one of the 6 listed accounts and then use the marketing_cost.
I am unable to validate the beast mode ("Whoops error!!" is not helping)
The column names are correct, I am not clear whether it is the grouped dataset view that is causing the issue, or if as the accounts is a text field there is a format mismatch, or something else…
How do I troubleshoot this?
CASE
WHEN `account`IN ('5704','4941','4216','4194','4217','4213') THEN `Sum usd_marketing_cost`
ELSE `Sum usd_cost`
END
All suggestions appreciated…
Thanks
John

It might actually be that your IN does not have a space before it so it is reading accountIN as one thing, when it isn't.

Thanks Mark, that's not the issue, but it is a typo in what I wrote above. Are there differences between how beast modes work in dataset views to cards?

Yes Michelle the account is a grouped column and the two cost columns are both summed.

Hi Michel, I was using the beastmode to add a column to a dataset view which groups the data by quarter. I could not get the statement to work. I have just added this column to the base dataset instead, so I have a working solution now.
I would love to understand if it is the dataset view that was causing the error?
