  1. 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.

  2. 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.

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

  4. 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.

  5. 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

  6. 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?

  7. 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%))))

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

  9. 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

  14. Hey Guys,

    I am trying to set up an automatic status formula where if I put data in the cells that require action, then status cell would say "closed". Otherwise, it would say "open" if any of the required cells needing data dont have anything. For example, I am trying to say =IF(ISTEXT(E1,E2,E3,E4)),"CLOSED",OPEN") Is this something possible to do? I keep getting the error message no mater what way I do it.

  15. Hi guys!

    I have a struggles to make the formula to check the schedules in the way that there can not be more than 6 working days in a row. The biggest problem is probably a format which is:

    06:00-14:30 09:00-17:30 sl. 15:30-24:00 15:30-24:00 15:30-24:00 sl.

    06:00-14:30 are the formats of the shifts and sl. are free days. How to make the formula to find the mistakes if there is more than 6 shifts in a row?

    Thank youu :)

    1. Hello!
      The formula returns TRUE if there are 7 consecutive business days in the range of cells.

      =ISNUMBER(SEARCH("1111111",CONCAT((--(A1:Z1<>"sl.")))))

      The results of the comparison are combined into a string using the CONCAT function. The number 1 corresponds to the working day.

  16. IF A1 > B1 by 1-3 then score 3 in cell C1

  17. Hello,

    I'm looking for TAT formula . there are 3 stages sales bucket ,credit bucket and disbursement bucket .

    i want cal TAT and if i change the status it should to go the previous bucket. from there it should again cal the TAT

    1. Hello,
      I've looked through the blog and the posts and cannot find an answer, so I appreciate any help you can give.

      On my sheet, there is one column (A) that has one of 3 different categories- Urgent, Non-urgent, For awareness.

      A second column (C) contains the number of minutes that it took to respond to the above categories.

      SLA is 15 mins for Urgent, 30 mins for Non-urgent, and 45 mins for For Awareness.

      I am trying to calculate whether the response time meets the service level agreement.

      Here's the formula that I wrote, but it only works for the Urgent SLA evaluation:

      =IF(AND(A3="Urgent", C3<=15, AND(A3="Non-urgent", C3<=30), AND(A3="FYSA", C3<=45)), "YES", "NO")

      Would you please explain how I can correct this?

      Thank you.

  18. Hi all,

    I am struggling to create a formula that will only show the date increased by 28 days if the cell has a value

    so,

    G4 has 16/05/2022 + 28 days (=SUM($G4+28) showing H4 - 13/06/2022

    but if G5 is empty, the H4 should remain empty

  19. I tried the multiple if and it says too many arguments

  20. Hi, I would like to know how to use the IF statement in the below situation

    If value of Column A in Sheet 1 matches a value in Column A of Sheet 2 then print a statement ex "True".

    TIA.

    Ps: Anyother function than IF is also welcome.

  21. Hi I need help with a formula to see if this is possible.
    I want to have A1>5 it is Yes, if A1<5, then it is NO and if A1 id empty or blank then it should be left blank,

    I tried using : =IF(A1<5,"NO",OR IF(ISBLANK(A1),"BLANK", "")))
    But it returns with NO even when A1 cell is empty instead of returning as blank

    1. =IF(ISBLANK(A5),"",IF(A5<5,"NO","YES"))

      1. Sorry I used A5 instead of A1. The formula still holds true though. Just a note though, if the cell contains anything other than blank or 0-5 it will say "YES".
        If a cell contained "a" the result would be YES

  22. I am trying change the value of a cell based on another value depending on if it is a multiple of a specific number.

    So, I want C1 to change to "1" if G1 is a multiple of 8. And to "0" if G1 is not a multiple of 8

    Not sure if anybody has commented this before but I have spent hours trying to figure it out.

    1. Hello!
      If the remainder of the division of numbers is zero, then the first number is a multiple of the second. You can determine the remainder of a division using the MOD function.
      Please try the following formula:

      =IF(MOD(G1,8)=0,1,0)

  23. Hi, I have a problem with the formulas I am using for an analysis.

    I have made a drop down, with 4 options:
    1.) 0-2
    2.) 3-6
    3.) 7-10
    4.) 11+

    I have also made a short table where this option got a value to calculate with:
    0-2 = 5
    3-6 = 10
    7-10= 15
    11+ = 20

    To calculate I use the formula: =LOOKUP(Cell of the option 1 to 4; {"0 to 2";"3 to 6";"7 to 10";"11+"};{5;10;15;20})

    This is going good untill i need the vallue of the last option 4 (11+), because it shows the value 5, and it has to be 20.

    What am I going wrong in the formula?
    Or do I need to use an IF formula?

    1. Hello!
      The second argument to the LOOKUP function, [Lookup_vector], must be sorted in ascending order. Your formula doesn't have it. The fourth value is less than the third.
      You can learn more about LOOKUP syntax in Excel in this article on our blog.

  24. Hi I need some help with IF statements,

    Im using the following formula which so far works great but not sure if what I want to happen can actually work.
    =IF(Y17="A","Awesome job.",IF(Y17="B","great work")) ect. all the way through to F.

    however I want it to try and give more than one option to pick from as I am doing this for a lot of kids and what different options. For example if they get an A randomly pick out of 3 different comments for example "awesome job" or "Amazing" or "Fantastic work". can I have this many options? even a choice of 2 options would be great.

    Also I have the example comments written in example Cell C21-C24. Can I get it to pick and copy one of those 3 cells instead of typing out the whole text comment I want?

    1. Hello!
      Use the RANDBETWEEN function to generate random numbers for selection.
      You can select values in a formula using the CHOOSE function.
      Or, randomly select a cell address using the INDIRECT function.

      =IF(Y17="A",CHOOSE(RANDBETWEEN(1,3),"awesome job","Amazing","Fantastic work"),"")
      or
      =IF(Y17="A",INDIRECT("C2"&RANDBETWEEN(1,4)),"")

      I hope my advice will help you solve your task.

  25. Could you help me to write a formula for IF B2 is YES, then it should consider the data present in A2,if B2 is No, then it should be blank

      1. No,I Could not find answer in the mentioned link. Kindly help me on the below
        Example:In A2 column document number has given, In B2 cell if document is closed then closed date has mentioned, If document is open then cell is blank, In C2 cell if document is in closed status (date updated)mentioned as YES if it’s open (B2 is blank) C2 shows as No.
        Now I need the formula for D2 cell, if C2 is yes then it should consider the date which is mentioned in B2, if C2 is no then D2 cell should be blank.

        1. Hi!
          Both of these formulas match your conditions:

          =IF(C2="Yes",B2,IF(C2="No","",""))

          =IF(C2="Yes",B2,"")

          1. Perfect! It’s working thank you so much ☺️

  26. Hi,

    I'm looking at trying get a yes/ no answer for a column that has "yes" or "no" data entered.

    If the column is all "yes" the statement is true and the result should be "yes". Is there a way to do this?

    E.g.

    A1 Yes

    A2 Yes

    A3 Yes

    A4 Formula gives the answer "Yes"

    However, if A2 had "No", the formula in A4 would give the answer as "No"

    Any help would be appreciated as I have been researching for a few months on and off now.

    1. Hello!
      I hope you have studied the recommendations in the tutorial above. It contains answers to your question.

      =IF(AND(A1="Yes",A2="Yes",A3="Yes"),"Yes","No")

  27. I need a formula that will do the following:

    =IF(F2*60%)/32)2, I want 3 for my answer, If >1 and < 3 I need 2 as my answer. thanks kindly

    1. It dropped something from my question:
      =IF(F2*60%)/32) >2 I want 3, <2 I want 1 and 1 I want 2.

      1. Hi!
        Please re-check the article above since it covers your case. However, your second and third conditions can be met at the same time. It's not allowed in the formula.

  28. the "," does not work! it has to be ";" to work

  36. Hi, I'm looking for some help to automate an NBA bracket pool that I am currently running for my office.
    I am awarding 1 point for having predicted the correct series score (i.e. 4-0, 4-1, etc.). I have a single cell for each teams score (i.e. Team A's score will go in C5 and Team B's score will go in C9).

    I'm hoping there's a formula that can award 1 point for having corrected the correct score. I currently have a "master bracket" where I am entering the series scores as the playoffs continue. I've tried using a formula like =(IF(player1!C5='POOL - MASTER'!E5,1,0)) which will give me a point if correct, but this does not necessarily show whether player 1 guessed the correct series score. So, I need to somehow meet both conditions (or have both scores be correct) in order to award a point.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks in advance!

    2. *1 point for having PREDICTED the correct score

      1. I failed to mention that these formulas are on a "standings" sheet which I'm hoping will update automatically as I enter the series scores in the "pool - master" sheet.

  38. I need help with creating a formula in excel

    IF A5=5, then 0 points is assigned
    IF A5=4, then 1 point is assigned
    IF A5=3, then 2 points is assigned
    IF A5=2, then 3 points is assigned
    IF A5=1, then 4 points id assigned
    IF A5=0, then 5 points is assigned

    1. Just us Nested - If(AS=5,"0",If(AS=4,"1",If(AS=3,"2",If(AS=2,"3",If(AS=1,"4",If(AS=0,"5"," "))))))

  39. Hey please help me with the the formula for taking R12 from every R100 due .I have tried this but I can't get the correct answer when scrolling down ,=if(d6>=A4,B2,0)

  40. I have a question,
    If the opening size is >0.5= 3 then half opening size deduction
    If the opening size is >3 then full opening size deduction
    Ex Door = 2.0 x 2.1m = 4.2 Sqm is the opening size, then criteria 2
    If Door = 1.2 x 2.1 = 2.52, then half of the opening size (2.52/2) criteria 1

    1. Hi!
      I don't quite understand what result you want to get with our conditions. All the necessary information is in the article above. Or explain the problem in more detail.

  41. Is there an excel formula where I want that if the birthdate (Column C) is equal to 12 and is elementary level (Column G) then it will returns to the age (Column E)otherwise returns to "Underage"(Column E).

  42. Hi I need help with a nested if argument, I want to calculate a specific percentage according to an alphabetical code, all entries with codes (column F) R,P,B,W need to depreciate by 5% per year (column H) if the code is anything else the percentage is set at 50%

    This is what I have so far:

    =IF(or(F10="r",f10="p",f10="b",f10="W"),and(f10=n),100%-(H10*5)/100),"50%")

    1. H1!
      If I understand your task correctly, try the following formula:

      =IF(OR(F10="r",F10="p",F10="b",F10="w"),H10*0.95,H10*0.5)
      or
      =IF(SUM(--(F10={"r","p","b","w"}))>0,H10*0.95,H10*0.5)

  43. Hi,

    I'm trying to work out a formula which deducts travel time from appt time. Column 'P' is actual Appt duration, Column U is overall Appt duration (inc travel) I have the following formula which deducts actual appt time from overall appt time but wanted to include an IF statement saying take column 'U' if it = 00:00 (no travel time) so currently have the following: =IF(U135="00:00",U135,IF(U136<P136,P136-U136,U136-P136))

    However this isn't working as still calculates regardless of column 'U' being 00:00, any idea what I'm doing wrong?

  44. Hello,

    I am trying to use an "if and" statement with 3 conditions at the end of a very long statement.

    It is 3 IF statements, 1 IF AND statement, and 1 IF AND AND statement. The formula works up to the 3 IF statements + 1 IF AND statement, but does not work once I add the IF AND AND statement. I have copied below what I have so far, can someone please assist?

    IF(V2="*",S2,IF(S2="",T2,IF(S2="*",S2,IF(AND(S2="",T2="<"),"T2","U2",IF(AND(AND(S2="",T2=""),U2,V2))))))

    Above is translated to if V2="*", then look at S2. If S2 is blank, then look at T2. If S2="*", then use S2. If S2 is blank and T2 = "<", then look at T2, if not then look at U2. If S2 is blank, and T2 = "", then look at U2 if not then look at V2.

    1. Hi!
      Your conditions are incorrect. If condition IF(AND(S2=””,T2=”<”) returns FALSE, then there are 2 choices: 1) U2. 2) checking the condition IF(AND(AND(S2="",T2="”)

  45. Hi,

    I require formula for a confiriton where, "If we input date in one cel, then a specific amount should popup in the destination cell"

    Example: if a cell A15 has date 23/04/2022, then cell G15 should popup with the amount 50.

    will this be possible?

  46. Dear Sir,

    I noticed you are helping a lot of people here and i would like to ask if you could guide me in the right direction in excel. I am trying to create a worksheet with available lens (of all sorts) for our lab. And separate worksheets with lenses grouped for uses (contact lenses/ lenses by brands and stuff like that). My idea was for the lens name with its ID from the other worksheets to be copied into the availability worksheet (like this ='Contact Lenses'!D8). But when there is a date of taking the lens in the availability worksheet the worksheet that regards that specific lens (like 'Contact Lenses') will have in the relevant cell a value of Yes (for taken) and a No value for when there is a date of return in a separate column in the 'availability' worksheet. However The problem i am struggling with is that the same lens may occur several times in the same availability worksheet - making If statements kind of ridiculous.

    Things like started coming out as such - which obviously won't work
    'IF(OR(AND('Availability' $C10:C100 ISTEXT = "CL1.75 #A" , 'Availability' $F10:F100 ISBLANK), AND('Availability' FC10:F100 ISTEXT = "CL1.75 #A", ISTEXT )), "Yes", "No")

    ('Availability' worksheet) - Cells[Lens ID, date of taking item, name of person who took it, date of returning item]

    Example 'Lens' worksheet - Cells [Lens ID, Specification, Available?]

    I hope i explained it well enough. Do you have an idea on how to proceed with such a task?

    Regards
    Wiktor

    1. Hello!
      If you need to find the last match with Lens ID in the ‘Availability’ worksheet, you can use the XLOOKUP function with Search_mode = -1
      I hope this will help, otherwise please do not hesitate to contact me anytime.

  47. I am trying to get my IF formula to work with multiple conditions. Here are the conditions:
    1. Cell C4 must contain a certain term, let's call it "apple".
    2. Cell M4 must contain a numerical value.
    If both conditions are met, I would like to subtract the value in cell M4 from the value in cell D4.
    If one or both of the two conditions are NOT met, I would like to return the value "N/A"

    Thanks in advance for your help!
    Mike

    1. Hi!
      To check if a cell contains a number, use the ISNUMBER function. Also, use the recommendations from the article above.

      =IF(AND(C4="apple",ISNUMBER(M4)),D4-M4,"N/A")

      This should solve your task.

      1. Thank you Alexander, this worked well. I was not employing the ISNUMBER function, but I had the rest of the formula elements. I really appreciate the swift response.

  48. I have. project and I'm struggling to know how to do this IF formula given what they say:
    "The dataset contains ten measurements of student readiness for college in columns B-K. The description of each one of them is available in the file."
    "To analyze this data, you need to create additional columns and recode the data, making low a 1, moderate, a 2, and High a 3 (you can use an IF function to do this). In this format, the highest the number, the more prepared the student is."

    the column already says moderate low and high what function would I do to get it to formulate to 1,2,3, etc...

  49. Sorry not all the context was stated in my message, The results , need to be
    Poor (345)

    1. Hi!
      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(J2 > = 5,"top",IF(J2 > 3,"good","poor"))

      If this is not what you wanted, please describe the problem in more detail.

  50. Hi Alexander, I am hoping you can help me, its probably a simple formula, I just can't seem to get my head around.
    I have a list of scores ( results) in one column, from these scores I need to determine, poor ( 345). preferably the result being the corresponding text.

    Average Total Output
    2.3
    2.4
    2.5
    2.6
    2.7
    2.8
    2.8

    This is my formula so far: =IF(J2>=5,"top",IF(J23,"good",IF(J2>33>0,"poor",)))) but its not giving me the result I am looking for. Help appreciated.
