This code works correctly when testing it, but the popup does not return the same results. The When function is not returning the correct value in the popup.</P><LI-CODE lang="javascript">var theDate = Date(); var theMonth = Month(theDate); //note Month is zero-based (Jan = 0) var quarter; //This always returns 4 in the popup, regardless of the date //when (theMonth &lt; 3, quarter = 1, // theMonth &lt; 6, quarter = 2, // theMonth &lt; 9, quarter = 3, // quarter = 4} when (theMonth &lt; 3, quarter = 1, theMonth &lt; 6, quarter = 2, theMonth &lt; 9, quarter = 3, theMonth &lt; 12, quarter = 4, quarter = "Fail"); return `Today's date: ${Text(theDate,"MMMM D, YYYY")} Today's month: ${theMonth} Today's quarter: ${quarter}`;</LI-CODE><P>When I run the Test in the code editor, it gives me the correct result.</P><P><span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="2022-10-04_8-56-28.png" style="width: 400px;"><img src="https://community.esri.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/52807i5AA1DBD573B45697/image-size/medium?v=v2&amp;px=400" role="button" title="2022-10-04_8-56-28.png" alt="2022-10-04_8-56-28.png" /></span></P><P>However, it does not in the popup.</P><P><span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="2022-10-04_8-54-00.png" style="width: 400px;"><img src="https://community.esri.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/52805iBB2F6C7D13CAEA9C/image-size/medium?v=v2&amp;px=400" role="button" title="2022-10-04_8-54-00.png" alt="2022-10-04_8-54-00.png" /></span></P><P>Is this a new bug?</P> Tue, 04 Oct 2022 12:57:59 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-online-questions/arcade-when-function-is-not-working-in-a-popup/m-p/1218593#M48189 KenBuja 2022-10-04T12:57:59Z https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-online-questions/arcade-when-function-is-not-working-in-a-popup/m-p/1218600#M48191 <P>You have to declare the variable outside of When().
