CASE not giving the required result

My CASE statemtents are giving the wrong result, I am trying to show what is ontime and what is late. I am trying to say when incept <=5 OR madelive <=10 then make it ontime but it is showing as ontime when it should show late. madelive is 9 incept is 7 which should make the policy show as late but shows as ontime(1). my code is below if anyone can help please. CASE WHEN incept sql-server-2008case-statement

That is what you would expect. madelive is less than 10 so the CASE statement is returning 1. Do you need to change the OR to an AND?

If I changed my statement to AND it would make Ontime and Late both show as 0 would I need to do an AND and an OR to get it to work? Thanks

Late? Is that another part of your code? Can you edit the question and add the whole statement, with some sample data and what you want the results to show please?
