  1. I am trying to work a formula with the following:

    T1= Week 1 and U1 = 4 calculate D3/4
    T1= Week 2 and U1 = 4 calculate D3/2
    T1= Week 3 and U1 = 4 calculate (D3/4)*3
    T1= Week 4 and U1 = 4 enter D3
    T2= Week 1 and U1 = 5 calculate D3/5
    T2= Week 2 and U1 = 5 calculate (D3/5)*2
    T2= Week 3 and U1 = 5 calculate (D3/5)*3
    T2= Week 4 and U1 = 5 calculate (D3/5)*4
    T2= Week 5 and U1 = 5 enter D3

    Tried the following formula but it doesn't seem to work

    =IF(OR(AND($T$1="Week 1",$U$1="4",D3/4),AND($T$1="week 2",$U$1="4",D3/2),AND($T$1="Week 3",$U$1="4",(D3/4)*3),AND($T$1="Week 1",U1="5",D3/5),AND($T$1="Week 2",$U$1="5",(D3/5)*2),AND($T$1="Week 3",$U$1="5",(D3/5)*3),AND($T$1="Week 4",$U$1="5",(D3/5)*4)),D3)

    Can you help?

    1. Hello!
      For the first four conditions, use a nested IF function. It is impossible to combine all conditions in one formula, as they contradict each other. For example, the first and fifth conditions can return TRUE at the same time.

      =IF(AND(T1="Week 1",U1=4),D3/4, IF(AND(T1="Week 2",U1=4),D3/2, IF(AND(T1="Week 3",U1=4),D3/4*3, IF(AND(T1="Week 4",U1=4),D3,""))))

      I hope it’ll be helpful.

      1. Thank you - this is helpful!

  2. Hope someone can help me figure this out.
    I have a column "date rented" formatted mm/dd/yyyy.
    What I need to do is the following numeric values returned based on tenant's length of stay:
    If 5 years and 10 years and 5 years and 30 years then 5

    2. Hope someone can help me figure this out. I have a column "Birth Date".
      What I need is return the following numeric values based on the Date column
      - If Birth Date 2 years and 5 years and 10 years then 4

  3. Can you please help me to get a suitable formulas for :

    Cell Number : B5

    (B5) Not Exceeding 53846 - (C7*10%)
    (B5) Exceeding 53846 but not exceeding 75000 - (C7*12.5%)
    (B5) Exceeding 75000 - (C7*15%)

    Please ignore my previous message. it was a mistake.

    Thanks

    Samad

  4. Can you please provide me with assistance for a multiple "IF" formula, using the following conditions;

    If the value in cell B27 is between 15 and 17, then the answer = 350
    If the value in cell B27 is between 18 and 19, then the answer = 800
    If the value in cell B27 is between 20 and 24, then the answer = 1350
    If the value in cell B27 is greater than 24, then the answer = 2350
    If the value in cell B27 is less than 15, then the answer = 0

    So far I have come up with the following formula for the first condition:

    =IF(AND(B27>15,B27<18),350,0

    This works, but when I try to add the other conditions I get an error. Can you please show me what I need to do to add the other criteria to this formula correctly.

      1. Hi Alexander,

        Thanks for your reply, it is very much appreciated.

        However, your formula didn't quite work properly. I have made the following adjustment to your formula and this now works fine.

        =IF(B27>24,2350,IF(B27>19,1350,IF(B27>17,800,IF(B27>14,350,0))))

        Thanks again for your assistance.

        Kind regards,
        Collis

    2. Oops, I meant =IF(AND(B27>14,B27<18),350,0)

  5. Thank you in advance for your help. I am having a problem coming up with a formula to:

    If cell 2 is blank do nothing, if cell 1 is greater than cell 2 do nothing, if cell 1 is less than cell 2 subtract cell 2 from cell 1.

    Any help you can offer would be appreciated.

    1. Hi!
      I hope you have studied the recommendations in the tutorial above. It contains answers to your question.
      I’m not sure I got you right since the description you provided is not entirely clear. However, it seems to me that the formula below will work for you:

      =IF(A1 < A2,A1-A2,"")

      1. Thank you for responding but your formula got cut off. All I got was =IF(A1.

          1. Thank you but my problem is still that if cell A2 is empty I want it to do nothing. As it is now if cell A2 is empty it is counting it as zero and deducting zero from cell A1 and showing the amount. I guess I forgot to point out this formula is being used in cell A3. That probably makes a difference. Sorry about that.

              1. Sorry to keep bothering you but I am still getting a calculation if the cell is empty. To be more specific in G13 I am looking for a formula that will do nothing if E13 is empty or if D13 is more than E13. If E13 is less than D13 I want G13 to show D13-E13. The formula I am using is:

                =IF(E13=“”,””,IF(D13>E13,D13–E13,””))

                Everything works except that when E13 is empty G13 is showing D13-E13 which it is counting as zero. In the scenario I want G13 to do nothing at all.

                Again sorry to keep bothering you but I have been working on this for hours. Lol

              2. Hi!
                The formula you wrote down doesn't match the formula I gave you. Look carefully.
                The conditions you wrote contradict each other.
                "if D13 is more than E13" - "do nothing"
                "If E13 is less than D13"- "show D13-E13"
                But "if D13 is more than E13" and "If E13 is less than D13" - this is the same.

  6. Dear Sir,

    We need you help regarding the below function. The below function working stock monitoring.
    But SHORTAGE not coming automatically and other all function working.
    I need you intervention in issue.

  7. Dear Alexander Trifuntov,

    I really appreciate your knowledge and I hope you can help me.
    I have the following case:

    A) 200,000
    B) 100,000
    C) 50,000
    SUM: 350,000

    If the sum is equal to or greater than 350000, then write me 350000*0.2%, if the sum is less than 350000, and A is greater than or equal to 200000, then write me 20000*0.2%, and if A is less than 200000, and the sum is less than 350000, then write me 0.

  8. is it possible to put this in 1 "IF" condition:

  11. Hello,

    I`m looking for correct IF formula, would you please help me?

    Column B = M and F letters
    Column C = Numbers (60-90)

    Can you help?
    Thank you

  13. I have a column with age in months and based on the age there are four things that can happen. I need another column that returns one of the four results "" below. I need help with a formula for how to do this. Here are the four criteria I need to incorporate:

    If 5 months and less then "waitlist"
    If 6 months to 30 months then "infant"
    If 31 months to 54 months then "toddler"
    If 55 months or more than "aged out".

    Can you help?

      1. Something in this formula is off. It gives the value of "aged out" for everything. I have a column with age in months - that the formula is pointing to. I cannot figure it out for the life of me.

        Thank you for any insight.

        1. I figured it out! I didn't need the part of the formula (DATEDIF) because I already had a column with that info. This was so helpful! Thank you

  14. Hi

    I have a data set with 3 columns and 100+ rows;
    Column A = Person, B = Value, C = Percentage

    I need to find a way to return the top 3 persons (Column A), this is based on the highest Value (B) and the highest percentage (C).

    What is the best way to do this??

    Thanks

  15. I am discombobulated. I hope u guys can help.
    I need to count the incentive but it has some certain condition.
    1. You need to see the on/off boarding date.
    2. You need to see the load/unloading date (of the cargo)
    3a. If a new hire joins before the load date, then they would get a 100% and the one who leaves, gets nothing.
    3b. If a new hire joins at the same day, then they would get 40%. The one who leaves, gets 60%.
    3c. If a new hire joins after the load date, but before the unload date, they would get 25%. The one who leaves, gets 75%
    3d. If a new hire joins right on or after the unload date, they get 0%. The one who leaves, gets a 100%.

  16. Hi! I hope you can help me with this.

    I have the following data:

    Employee A:
    Starting salary - 500
    Had a promotion on 3/1/2022, salary will be 600

    Employee B:
    Starting salary - 400
    Increased salary on 2/1/2022 at 420
    Promoted on 8/1/2022, salary will be 500

    Employee C:
    No increase in salary at 450

    I need formulas for the months Jan-Dec showing salaries of employees for each month. There are only 2 instances where employees get salary increase which can happen in a year: salary increase and promotion.

    Table should show these (with months in columns):

    Employee A: (Jan) 500, (Fed) 500, (Mar) 600, (Apr-Dec) 600
    Employee B: (Jan) 400, (Feb-Jul) 420, (Aug-Dec) 500
    Employee C: (Jan-Dec) 450

    Thanks in advance

  17. I tried to do it in a lot of ways but failed. If I have suppose 10 number in a cell and a -5,-3,-2 as a credit then I have to match it manually. Is there any way that the cells which are becoming zero automatically get highlighted or actual one? And this zero's are getting's on the reference Id basis. Any number should not get zero by matching other reference Id value .So,is there any better ways to do it?

    I have tried the solver also but its has a range of 200 line items only and I have the data of 50000 thousand line item.

        2. Could someone plz help with the above question?

  21. I need one small help here

    Rather than showing as a data I need results as Match-1,Match-2,Match-3,Match-4,Match-5

    For below formula:

    =IFERROR(VLOOKUP(AA3, Visa!AA:A, 1,0),IFERROR(VLOOKUP(AB3, Visa!AB:AB,1,0),IFERROR (VLOOKUP(AC3, Visa!AC:AC,1,0),IFERROR (VLOOKUP (AD3, Visa!AD:AD,1,0), VLOOKUP(AE3, Visa!AE:AE,1,0)))))

  22. I have a column of cells that say either "Buy", "Sell", "Hold".
    I'm looking for a formula that at the end of the column automatically populates which ever word populates the most in the column. Any help with a formula is appreciated!

    1. Hello!
      To find the most frequently occurring value in a range, use this array formula with the COUNTIF function.

      =INDEX(A1:A40, MATCH(MAX(COUNTIF(A1:A40,A1:A40)), COUNTIF(A1:A40,A1:A40),0))

      This is an array formula and it needs to be entered via Ctrl + Shift + Enter, not just Enter.

  23. Dear Alexander Trifuntov, I hope you can help me
    I have the following data

    year condition
    A1 1991 B1 =IF((A1={1991,1994,1998}),1,0)
    A2 1992 B2 =IF((A2={1991,1994,1998}),1,0)
    A3 1993 .
    A4 1994 .
    A5 1995 .
    . . .
    A9 1999 B9 =IF((A9={1991,1994,1998}),1,0)
    A10 2000 B10 =IF((A10={1991,1994,1998}),1,0)

    I need that if the evaluated cell is equal to a group of values {1991,1994,1998}, I get 1, otherwise 0, I have tried with the AND/OR function and I have not been able to obtain the result I am looking for. Could you give me a hint on how to search with more than one criteria using the IF function?
    Thank you very much for your help.

      1. Thank you very much for your kind help! It works perfectly

  24. Hello i m hoping someone will help me with this formula

    I have 5 set of criteria data based this I m doing iferror vlookup in one shot same column then I found the results but I want to know results matched with which criteria out of 5 whether criteria 1 or 2 or 5 for this how to check in same formula.

    My formula is :

    =IFERROR(VLOOKUP(AA3,Visa!AA:AA,1,0), IFERROR(VLOOKUP(AB3,Visa!AB:AB,1,0),
    IFERROR(VLOOKUP(AC3,Visa!AC:AC,1,0),
    IFERROR(VLOOKUP(AD3,Visa!AD:AD,1,0),
    VLOOKUP(AE3,Visa!AE:AE,1,0)))))

    1. Hi!
      An Excel formula cannot return 2 values at once - the search result and the criterion number. You can combine these values if that suits you.

      =IFERROR(VLOOKUP(AA3,Visa!AA:AA,1,0)&"1", IFERROR(VLOOKUP(AB3,Visa!AB:AB,1,0)&"2",
      IFERROR(VLOOKUP(AC3,Visa!AC:AC,1,0)&"3",
      IFERROR(VLOOKUP(AD3,Visa!AD:AD,1,0)&"4",
      VLOOKUP(AE3,Visa!AE:AE,1,0)&"5"))))

  25. Hello,

    I do have an Excel Sheet with multiple tabs (For Hiring Process)

    I want to link the first tab (Manpower Requisitions) with the second tab (Applicant Tracker).

    whenever I mark in the first tab - against in any requisition that it is “closed”, it will reflect in the second tab against the candidate name that (joined).

    Which formula will be good for use?

  26. Hi, I am looking for a solution.

    I want to get a result as "Graduated" if "Persons name or employee" and a "particular code" (code is a typology) and if the result says pass (we have the result as pass or fail in the data already) and if there is consecutive 5 "pass" or more "pass".
    If not the result must say "Pending" if there is only 4 "Pass" or less "Pass"

    EXAMPLE:

    Name Code Result Final outcome
    XYZ SO04 Pass
    Pass
    Pass
    Pass
    Pass "GRADUATED" If it has 5 consecutive result as "pass" or
    more than 5 consecutive result as "Pass" then
    the outcome must be "GRADUATED" .

    Name Code Result Final outcome
    XYZ SO04 Pass
    Pass
    Fail
    Fail
    Pass "PENDING" If it does not have 5
    consecutive Pass" the final
    outcome must be "Pending"

    PLEASE HELP ASAP

    2. Column A is Name which is XYZ Column B is Code which is SO04 Column 3 is Result which is Pass or Fail. Need outcome in Column D which is FINAL OUTCOME header. If Column 3 has 5 consecutive PASS the FINAL OUTCOME must be "Graduated" If not FINAL OUTCOME must be "Pending"

      Data dump has Difference names (In column A) and different code (Typology) in Column B

      For each employee (Name) based on audit for the Code. Result is already given as Pass or fail in the data dump

      1. Hi I need help with my excel data sheet
        IF A1, B1, C1 10 then A4 will show “Not OK”
        Suppose if any of the cells is more than 10 even though the others two cells is less than 10 A4 will show “Not Ok”
        Please help…

        1. Hello!
          If an array is a logical test, it results in TRUE and FALSE values. You can convert them to 1 and 0 by using the double unary operator (--). Please see SUMPRODUCT function example for more details.

          =IF(SUMPRODUCT(--(A1:C1>10)) > 0,“Not Ok”,"")

          I hope it’ll be helpful.

  28. Hello!
    I want to select a cell from two where if there is 0 in one cell then select another cell where there are values. like if in cell O22 is equal to zero then take zero overall but if not then take O23 there is an average of some cells.

  29. I am trying to write a formula. I have 3 cells that have either YES or NO, I need a formula to look at the 3 cells and return a value of 1 if only 1 out of 3 is a YES or 1.5 if 2 out of 3 are YES or 2 if all 3 are YES.

    YES
    YES
    YES
    =Would equal 2
    YES
    YES
    NO
    = Would equal 1.5
    YES
    NO
    NO
    = Would equal 1

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  31. I have been struggling with this formula for days. Thanks so much!

    I want to do a vlookup on another sheet first, if the data is not listed on the other sheet I want the data to be taken from another cell, however, if the cell selected is blank, then return with a text. This is what I have so far and it is not working.

    IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(A1,'Cargoo New Shipments'!$B:$AD,29,FALSE)),E1,IF(E1="","Lookup ETA","Lookup ETA"))

    Lookup value from the other sheet first - VLOOKUP(A1,'Cargoo New Shipments'!$B:$AD,29,FALSE))
    If the data is not listed, then take the data from cell E1
    If cell E1 is "" (blank) then return with a text, "Lookup ETA"

    I hope this makes sense, thanks so much!!

    1. Hello!
      I recommend using the IFERROR function to handle the lookup error.
      I can't check the formula that contains unique references to your workbook worksheets.
      Here is an example formula. Change external links as you need

      =IFERROR(VLOOKUP(A1,$B:$AD,29,FALSE),IF(E1="","Lookup ETA",E1))

    entered a position of 15K shares, now first sold 10K shares on one transaction TP#1 and then sold the remaining 5K shares on the next transaction TP#2 and nothing on TK#3

    so far i have this formal and it works fine for Take Profit #1 , my problem is to calculate TP#2 and add it to TP#1 in Column C and if there is a TP#3 to also add it to column C

    =IF((ISBLANK(J9)),,(IF(E9="Long",-1,1))*((H9*G9)-(K9*J9)))

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you

    1. Hi!
      Unfortunately I don't quite understand what you want to do. Please describe your problem in more detail. Give some examples of the results you want to get.

  33. Hello,
    I have 5 conditions that result in the correct corresponding value - it's purpose is to evaluate a set of criteria to come up with the standard Budget $ amount - but none of the equations involve math functions.

    If A2=P2 and B2=Q1 then R50; OR if A2=P2 and B2=P2 then R51, ...this goes on for 5 conditions (meaning B2=Q1 through Q5 each resulting in a value in R50 through R55.

    The values in A2 are words. They are not calculating numbers but just the reasoning of the association of values selected from a drop down box

    I hope that makes sense!

    Thanks for your help - I looked through the instructions but didn't see something exactly like this and I can't seem to get the OR OR OR OR OR right!

  34. Can you help me write a formula? Essentially, I want the formula to look at a data set 1 to extract the last transaction (date essentially). If data set 1, does not have the required data (maybe the last transaction happened between a different date range), I then want the formula to look at the second data set for the nearest transaction date.

    1. Hello!
      To find the maximum value in a date range, use the recommendations and examples in this article: Excel INDEX MATCH with multiple criteria.
      If the desired value is not found, use the IFNA function to search in a different range. Here's an example of a formula:

      =IFNA(INDEX(A1:A10,MATCH(1,(MAX(A1:A10)=A1:A10)*(A1:A10 > E1)*(A1:A10 < F1),0)),INDEX(C1:C10,MATCH(1,(MAX(C1:C10)=C1:C10)*(C1:C10 > E1)*(C1:C10 < F1),0)))

      I hope I answered your question. If something is still unclear, please feel free to ask.

  35. Hello
    Can you assist in creating formula to the following conditions
    I have two columns A has numbers from 0 to 100 and Column B has one of the following text ( Low- LoAvg- Avg- HiAvg- High)
    - Condition 1: IF column A is more than 61 And Column B is either Avg or HiAvg or High then result is 5
    IF Column A is more than 41 And Column B is high then result is 5
    - Condition 2: IF Column A is more than 41 And Column B is Either Avg or HiAvg then result is 4
    - Condition 3:IF Column A is between 31 to 40 and Column B is either Avg or HiAvg or High then result is 3
    - Condition 4:IF Column A is between 21 to 30 And Column B is either Avg or HiAvg or High then result is 2
    IF Column A is between 10 to 20 and Column B is High then Result is 2
    - Condition 5:If Column A is less than 21 and Column B is either Low orLoAvg or HiAvg then result is 1
    IF Column A is between 21 to 30 and Column B is low then result is 1

    1. Hi!
      If I understand your task correctly, try the following formula:

      =(A1 > 61)*((B1="High")+(B1="HiAvg")+(B1="Avg"))*5+(A1 > 41)*(A1 < 61)*(B1="High")*4+(A1 > 31)*(A1 < 41)*((B1="High")+(B1="HiAvg")+(B1="Avg"))*3+(A1 > 21)*(A1 < 31)*((B1="High")+(B1="HiAvg")+(B1="Avg"))*2+(A1 > 10)*(A1 < 21)*((B1="Low")+(B1="LoAvg")+(B1="HiAvg"))*1

      You can also use nested IF function. Use the recommendations in the article above, as well as this instruction: Excel nested IF statement - multiple conditions in a single formula

  36. I want to see if the below formula is correct
    IF(J42="Station with 3 Teams (All 3 Team)",IF(OR(Y42>=100%,AE42>=100%,AK42>=100%),Inputs!$L$24,IF(J42="Station with 3 Teams (All 3 Team)",IF(AND(Y42>=100%,AE42>=100%,AK42>=100%),Inputs!$L$25,Inputs!$L$27))))

    1. Hi!
      I don't know what data you are using and what result you want to get. I can't check the formula that contains unique references to your workbook worksheets, sorry.

  37. Hello,

    I'm looking to add criteria to the following COUNTIF formula. I use this formula [=(COUNTIF($A$2:[@ColumnA],[@ColumnA)=1)+0] to identify unique values. It returns a 1 the first time a unique value appears in the cell referenced and 0 every time that value is repeated. It is meant to assign a 1 or 0 to each row in a table. Where it says "ColumnA" the name of the column referenced appears. As you can see all references are to the same column and cell.

    I need to add criteria to this equation. Ideally the equation would recognize the cell in another column and consider it if it says "Yes", not consider it if it says "No." The final result would be an output of 1 if one cell says "yes" and another has a unique value. If the cell says "No" OR if the value is not unique, the equation would return a 0.

    Any idea on how to do this?

    Thank you!

  38. thank you so much!

  39. Hi,
    I am trying to do automated marking coming out of a MS Forms. I am trying to do a quiz answer that has multiple answers say "Red", "Blue", "Green"
    when recorded in a spreadsheet these answers can come out in any order is there an IF function that will ignore the order of the answers? at the moment I am writing a +IF for every combination ?

    Thank you

  40. I try to work below if function but it doesn't work, kindly help me

    =IF(OR((I50637=1),IF(AND(J50637<=249.99,K50637250,K50637<=5),"ON TIME"),IF(OR(I50637=3),IF(AND(J50637<=249.99,K50637250,K50637<=72),"ON TIME"),IF(OR(I50637=5),IF(AND(J50637<249.99,K50637<=12),"ON TIME",IF(AND(J50637<250,K50637<=24),"ON TIME","LATE"))))))))

    Priority 1 - less than 250 KM need to deliver within 2 days "ON TIME", more than 250 KM within 5 days "ON TIME" else "LATE"
    Priority 3 - less than 250 KM need to deliver 24 Hours "ON TIME", more than 250 KM need to deliver within 72 hours "ON TIME" else "LATE"
    Priority 5 - less than 250 need to deliver 12 Hours "ON TIME", more than 250 KM need to deliver 24 Hours "ON TIME" else "LATE".

    1. Hello!
      If I understand your task correctly, the following formula should work for you:

      =IF(OR(AND(I1=1,J1 < 250,K1 < = 5*24), AND(I1=3,J1 < 250,K1 < =24),AND(I1=3,J1 > 250,K1 < =72),AND(I1=5,J1 < 250,K1 < =12),AND(I1=5,J1 > 250,K1 < =24)),"ON TIME","LATE")

      Combine conditions with the IF AND fotmula. Also, read all the necessary recommendations in the article above.

      1. Thank You Alexander ?, It's working fine.

  41. Good evening,
    I need your help. Is there a formula for this statement in excel?
    The value of a cell is 15 less than the value cell of any other cells. If true, change to color of that cell.
    A1=10 B1=15 C1=20 D1=26
    The formula should return with cell A1 to highlight a different color, since A1 is the only one that is 15 less than any other cells (D1).
    Thanks in advanced

      1. Wow!!!
        Thank you so much.

  42. Hello!

    Hoping someone may be able to assist - I am working towards calculating an amount to be paid up to a cap.

    This is what I have so far (and could possibly be using the incorrect type of formula), but this formula needs to show up to 23568 and no higher.... even if the calculation works out more. I am just unsure how to get this into the formula - each way I have tried to date has failed.

    IIF([Base_ANN]<={&SALARY_SUPER_CAP}, ([Base_ANN]*[Super_Contribution]/100), {&SALARY_SUPER_CAP}*[Super_Contribution]/100)

    Any help would be appreciated.

    1. Hi!
      It is very difficult to understand a formula that contains unique references to your workbook worksheets. Hence, I cannot check its work, sorry.
      Give an example of the source data and the expected result. It’ll help me understand it better and find a solution for you.

  43. Hi I am trying to create an inventory sheet. I have three different lumber companies I'd like to track. I also have 22 different lumber types each from these different companies. Each company has their own price based on the lumber type. The formula I would like to create is one where I can enter the company name and the lumber type and it automatically picks up the price. I have already been able to do a simplistic version of this by setting only two logical tests and the true value but is it possible to create a formula that would encompass all these variations? Thank you in advance.

  44. If a1=$200.35 and b2=agree give me “paid in full”

  45. I'm trying to figure out how to create a formula that will review whether 3 of 4 conditions are present, and return a value of "Yes" or "No."

    Ex*. The presence of 3 of the following 4 criteria must be met: (*not actual clinical diagnostic info; just an idea of what I'm looking for)

    1. Persistent anxiety about topic: Yes (Yes or No will be derived from a Questions sheet, with an IF formula [to obtain information from multiple cells] or = formula)
    2. Persistent problems with sleep: No
    3. Distressing nightmares: No
    4. Lack of enjoyment in activities: Yes

    In this case, the formula would return "No," as the client doesn't meet at least 3 of the 4 criteria. But if 3 of the 4 were answered Yes, then it would return a "Yes."

    Not sure if I'm overthinking this as it's late, or if I'm just stuck here. Thanks!

      1. I may have thanked you too soon. I didn't mention in my example that the cells are not in a range. For example, there are cells (with further questioning to give a "yes" or "no" answer to the headings; i.e 1a, 1b, 1c, 2a, 2b, 3a...). Is there a way to do this without the range? I've tried a few different things, but it doesn't seem to be working.

          1. The data that the formula needs to look through looks like this:

            i4
            i8
            i15
            i24

            There is other data in the cells in between that provide the answers of "Yes" or "No" in the cells listed above.

            So it would look something like this:

            i4 - 1. First set of criteria for diagnosis (at least 1 of the following must be endorsed).
            i5 - 1a. symptom
            i6 - 1b. symptom
            i7 - 1c. symptom
            i8 - 2. Second set of criteria for diagnosis (at least 4 of the following must be endorsed).
            i9 - 2a. symptom
            i10 - 2b. symptom
            i11 - 2c. symptom
            i12 - 2d. symptom
            i13 - 2e. symptom
            i14 - 2f. symptom
            i15 - 3. Third set of criteria for diagnosis (at least 2 of the following must be endorsed).
            i16 - 3a. symptom
            i17 - 3b. symptom
            i18 - 3c. symptom
            i19 - 3d. symptom
            i20 - 3da. symptom
            i21 - 3db. symptom
            i22 - 3dc. symptom
            i23 - 3e. symptom
            i24 - 4. Fourth set of criteria for diagnosis (at least 1 of the following must be endorsed).
            i25 - 4a. symptom
            i26 - 4b. symptom
            i27 - 4c. symptom
            i28 - 4d. symptom
            i29 - 4e. symptom
            i30 - 4f. symptom
            i31 - 4g. symptom

            Each of the sub-sets must be endorsed (or not) in some way to generate the answer in those 4 cells. In order for Criterion A to be endorsed, any 3 of the 4 cells i4, i8, i15, or i24 must be answered with yes, otherwise, Criterion A is not met, and the diagnosis is not made. So there is no range of cells like i4:i24, and it appears COUNTIFS only uses a range.

            I hope that clarifies it. What else can I use instead?

            Thanks!

            1. Hi!
              In cells i4, i8, i15, i24, use the formula previously recommended to you.
              Then use the IF function for those four cells.

              =IF((A4="Yes")+(A8="Yes")+(A15="Yes")+(A24="Yes")>0,TRUE)

              Hope this is what you need.

              1. NVM, I figured out an alternative. Thanks!

              2. I'm not really sure how that will work. I only need any 3 of those cells to return yes, not all 4.

              3. Hi!
                If you need 3 "Yes" answers, replace 0 with 3 in the formula

                =IF((A4="Yes")+(A8="Yes")+(A15="Yes")+(A24="Yes") > = 3,TRUE)

      2. OMGosh! You're a life and time saver!! Thank you! I was thinking it was going to take all kinds of nested IF formula's! LOL.

  46. I have a problem too :) I have 30 cells and some of them are not numbers but "GO". As a result, I want Excel to summarise every "GO" as number 8 at the end. So, if I have 3 "GO" in this 30 cells, result I expect should be 24. Thank you :)

      1. You are a genius :) Thank you. I already understand better how this actually works. COUNTIF helped me for my problem. Thanks again

  47. Hi, I am trying to work out a problem with nested IF functions. I have the following table which i need to return values on based on the number in a cell see below. I have got all the way up to >250 with nested IF functions but need another formula to work out the problem for every 100 greater than 250 add the relevant amount. e.g. 450 = 7.

    1-50= 1
    51-100= 2
    101-150= 3
    151-200= 4
    201-250= 5
    >250= Add 1 per 100

    Here is the formula i have so far: =IF(B7=51,B7=101,B7=151,B7=201,B7=251,B7=351,"7",0)))))))

    Is this something you could help with?

  48. Can someone please help with providing a formula for the below problem:

    If C2 is <=500000 then C2*1.6%
    If C2 is <=1500000 then 500000*1.6% + the remaining value * 1.78%
    If C2 is <=3000000 then 500000*1.6% + 1000000*1.78% + the remaining value * 3.25%

    I have the first two conditions satisfied as mentioned below but cannot figure out the 3rd condition.

    =IF(C2<=500000,C2*1.6%,IF(C2<=1500000,((500000*1.6%)+((C2-500000)*1.78%))))

  49. ABC Material used in W,X,Y.Z FG Product , how i find that ABC material used in which FG Product.

  50. Hi I'm looking for a formula in this following condition:

    Name exact-age. estimate-age
    John Doe

    2. Hi again,

      Please ignore my previous question, and I'm looking for a formula in this following condition:
      Name Exact-age Estimate-age
      John Doe 35 35 +
      Mary Janes 65 +
      Steve Burry 18 18 - 26

      If there is an exact age and estimate age just show the exact age, if there is only estimate age just show the estimate age.

      Thanks
