Hi!

I am a new SAS VA user.

I have the following data variables: id (records are repeated) , department (three unique ones), status (yes/no)

I need to create a calculated item to count ids if department=one specific one AND status=no. 

When I use AND operator, while creating a calculated item, it returns the result as an error: the expected type is boolean.

 

How can I do it?
