Hello,
I am trying to do an if/or function for the following:
=if(c2d2,c2-d2,"")
I have typed it as =if(=or(c2d2,c2-d2,""))
what am I doing wrong? Please help!!!
Use formula according to it's orignal style instead of adding = after the (
=IF(OR(B2>50, B2>50), "Pass", "Fail")
Hi! Why do you repeat the same condition twice?
I hope you have studied the recommendations in the tutorial above. It contains answers to your question. Perhaps your formula looks like this:
=if(c2<d2,c2-d2,"")
that should read c2 less than d2 and c2 greater than d2
These two conditions cannot be fulfilled at the same time.
Hello can you help to simplify this formula
=IF(F3=80,20,IF(F3=81,21,IF(F3=82,22,IF(F3=83,23,IF(F3=84,24,IF(F3=85,25,IF(F3=86,26,IF(F3=86,26,"0"))))))))
Hi! You can simplify nested IF formula by using IFS function. You can find the examples and detailed instructions here: The new Excel IFS function instead of multiple IF.
According to your data, you can also use IF AND function:
=IF(AND(F3 > =80,F3 < =86),F3-60,0)
Hello, I am looking for help to write a formula based on nursing staffing.
Here is the example I need help with creating a formula for in a spreadsheet
The census is 30 and there are 5 registered nurses and 1 licensed practical nurse working … the formula I need help with would calculate 1 nurse and 1 licensed practical nurse work together take 9 patients. (The census of 30 patients minus the 9 patients the 2 staff take is 21). Therefore the remaining 4 registered nurses are split between the remaining 21 patients (so 3 nurses have 5 patients and 1 nurse would have 6 patients).
My spreadsheet has one column (cell) for the census, 1 cell for RN, and 1 cell for LPN.
I need to be able to calculate the ratio for this rule with an if function, because there is not always an LPN scheduled to work, so when a 1 is entered into the LPN cell, it should count a RN & LPN working together with 9 patients. (If no LPN is working, the RNs are divided among the unit census).
If someone can please help me, I have tried looking up help for this! I am not sure that an “if” rule is correct or how to proceed figuring this out.
Hi! Your request goes beyond the advice we provide on this blog. This is a complex solution that cannot be found with a single formula. If you have a specific question about the operation of a function or formula, I will try to answer it.
I have 3 criteria and 9 condition with same criteria in different column for incentive calculation. then which formula we can try to do smooth work.
Exp.:- If quarterly target is 5 lakhs, and achievement is 5.2 lakhs (104%
achievement) then MR will be eligible for Group B incentive that is 1.20% of the
quarterly sale that is 6240 Rs.
In that case we have 3 group 3 different condition and in three Group we have another condition with achievement. so pls suggest
Achievement Terms Group A Group B Group C
2.5 L
95-99.99% 0.50% 0.60% 0.75%
100-104.99% 1% 1.20% 1.50%
105-109.99% 1.25% 1.40% 1.75%
>110% 1.50% 1.80% 2%
Hi! You can create many conditions for IF function as described in this guide: Nested IF in Excel – formula with multiple conditions. You can also use the information and examples from the article above. Create a separate formula for each group. Or you can combine these formulas if you make a group selection and then specify a calculation for each group. For example:
=IF(G1="Group A",IF(AND(H1>95%,H1<99.99%),0.5%, IF(AND(H1>100%,H1<104.99%),1%,"")), IF(G1="Group B", IF(AND(H1>95%,H1<99.99%),0.6%, IF(AND(H1>100%,H1<104.99%),1.2%,""))))
Hello, thanks for the great work
I have an exercise please and I need help to apply a discaount on excel.
Regarding the discounts to apply:
6% if the customer is a wholesaler and bought more than € 10,000 in goods
3% if the customer is an individual and bought more than € 10,000 in merchants
0% if it is a retailer or if the customer bought less than € 10,000 while being wholesaler/individual.
Which function can I use please?
Thank you ,i need it
Hello! All the necessary information is in the article above. For multiple conditions, you can use a nested IF function. Read the following paragraph of the article above: Multiple nested IF statements. You can also find useful information in this article: Nested IF in Excel – formula with multiple conditions.
If each criterion of a nested IF function includes two conditions, you can use the AND function for those conditions as described in the paragraph above: Multiple AND conditions, and in this article: Multiple IF AND statements in Excel.
This should solve your task.

Formula for multiple LEFT Function in referencing to 1 cell only. The results either should be 2 digits,3 digits, 4 digits and 5 digits/
Hi! Your question is not clear. I think you can solve the problem yourself if you use this manual: Excel LEFT function with formula examples. If you can't do this, give an example of source data and desired results.
Hi guys need help.
Im looking what function to use
If A1 = “5x9” it should follow a 30 mins break and if more than 30 mins it should result to 1. if not, 0.
Then, if A1= “4x11” it should follow a 40 mins break and if more than 40 mins it should result to 1. if not, 0.
Hi! For multiple conditions you can use the nested IF function. I can't recommend you a formula, as not all your conditions are clear to me. For example "if more than 30 mins".
Please suggest a formula for below conditions
up to 150 show result "3"
151 to 1200 show result "5"
1201 to 35000 show result "8"

Trying to get a rolling calculation for 2 different factors.
To calculate data from column b2 to u2.
If a number is greater than 0, want the number 25 to be added for each cell and have total shown in cell v2.
Purpose is to capture total fixed number of “items” looked at. What is entered is number of “items” broken.
The average is done in a different cell based off of total number of items looked at.
Hi! If I understand your task correctly, this guide may be helpful: Excel average without zeros.

i am traying to write in if formula that a cell b7
if b7 is less than or equal to 50, value is 7
if b7 is greater than 50,but less than and equal to 150, value is 19

i want to apply this formula for a cell
Hi! You can find the answer in the first section of this article: Nested IF in Excel – formula with multiple conditions.
I am trying to insert IF where the following:
If C2 = "Closed",(E2*M13) and if C2 = "PAI",(E2*M9) and if C2 = TRAY,(E2*M7) and so on...
So if my c reads as closed, the cell calculates a value by taking the total in E and multiplying by % in M and if my c reads as PAI, it calculates the value by taking total in E and multiplying by corresponding % in M and so on.
I can't seem to add arguments after the first. I only have =IF(C2="closed",(CurrentWIP!E2*Sheet1!$B$18)) which works, looking only at 1 criteria. How do I add the same formula with different cells after the last ))
Hi! You can find the examples and detailed instructions here: Nested IF in Excel – formula with multiple conditions. For example:
=IF(C2="Closed",E2*M13,IF(C2="PAI",E2*M9,""))
Hi, I have cell D88 with text "DCC Incentive|MASTERCARD DCC1080225681".
In cell E88 and F88 I have Debit & Credit amount respectively. For this transaction, the amount is in Credit amount column USD8. I want to put 2 condition in cell J88, 1st : if 1st 13 left character is "DCC Incentive" and if F88>0, the final result should be a "Deposit"or "Payment" if false.
can you help which if formula to apply here?
Hi! If I understand your task correctly, the following formula should work for you:
=IF(AND(LEFT(D88,13)="DCC Incentive", F88>0), "Deposit","Payment")
Use the LEFT function to extract the characters from cell D88. Compare the result with the sample text. Depending on the conditions, use IF AND functions to write the final result.
I have a table with columns A through to Q.
I want a formula in column E that looks into B and if it finds "prof services" it always returns a 0, but if it doesn't it will multiple columns C x D. Thats all pretty simple but I also want other conditions to apply. If J states "No" then I want to multiple (C X D) x 0.8 unless Q contains "Partner". If "Partner" is returned I just want C X D.
Hi! The answer to your question can be found in article above and in this article: Nested IF in Excel – formula with multiple conditions. I can't offer you a formula as your description of the conditions is not very clear.
Thanks Alex, Nested IF worked perfectly, once I worked out the logic. Thanks again
The following formula is in Column E
=IFERROR(IF($B14="Prof Services",0,IF(Q14="Telstra",D14,IF(J14=”No”,$D14*0.8,D14)))," ")
The output I am hoping to get:
If B14 = "Prof Services" then I want 0 in E14
But if B14 = anything other than "Prof Services" then I want the value of D14 in E14 unless J14 has "No". In that case I want the value of D14 multiplied by 0.8
But with one other condition, and that is if "Telstra" is in cell Q14, then just show D14
I'm trying to write a formula for this scenario:
Cell A2
Cell B2
Cell C2
If Cell A2 is equal to zero, Cell A2 - Cell B2 = Cell C2
If Cell A2 is > zero, Cell A2 - Cell B2 = Cell C2
=IF(A2=0,A2-B2,IF(A2>0,A2-B2,""))
This will only shows result in Cell C2 once figure is key in. How do I make the same thing if Cell A2 is zero?
I am not sure I fully understand what you mean. The answer to your question is already in your formula. I don't really understand why you need two conditions with the same result. One condition is enough.
=IF(A2>=0,A2-B2,"")
I am having trouble combining a CONCATENATION formula with an IF statement.
This works as expected, both when A22 exists and when it doesn't: =IF(A22,"Hello","")
This works as expected: =CONCATENATE(TEXT(A22,"ddd. "),TEXT(C22,"mmm. dd"))
But this works as expected only when A22 exists. If A22 is empty I get "FALSE" not the " " I want: =IF(A22,CONCATENATE(TEXT(A23,"ddd. "),TEXT(C23,"mmm. dd")," "))
I suspect that the commas in the CONCATENATION statement are confusing the IF formula. But I've tried numerous additions of parentheses (to solate the CONCATENATION elements from IF) and Excel only balks.
Any thoughts?
Hi! If I understand your task correctly, the following formula should work for you:
=IF(A22,CONCATENATE(TEXT(A23,"ddd. "),TEXT(C23,"mmm. dd"))," ")
You're right. It does. Such a simple fix. All in the placement of the parentheses. I thought I had tried the very same placement at least twice before and gotten errors. But now it works. Thanks very much.
Excel wizards of this world, please help!
I'm trying to write a VLOOKUP formula that will give me a "-" in return when the value is either not found or zero, and the actual value when it was found. I've tried several approaches, but I can't get it to work. My latest attempt was this one:
=IF(OR(VLOOKUP(B1;location;5;FALSE)=0);(IFERROR(VLOOKUP(B1;location;5;FALSE))));"0";(VLOOKUP(B1;location;5;FALSE))
Thanks!
Hi! To replace the #N/A error with a value and use the second condition, apply a nested IF. For example:
=IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(B1,C1:G15,5,FALSE)),"-", IF(VLOOKUP(B1,C1:G15,5,FALSE),"-", VLOOKUP(B1,C1:G15,5,FALSE)))

Hi! If you have multiple conditions, you can use one of the formulas described in this article: Excel Nested IF statement: examples, best practices and alternatives.
I would like to add a formula to accomplish the following:
IF T5="High" AND U5="Low" THEN the data in cell R5 will show up in cell C4. (This is one example as I will need to add formulas for 4 outcomes).
It's not numbers-based; I have a table where I plan on adding tasks (Column R), and Column T has a drop-down list with 2 options (High or Low), as does Column U. I have 4 quadrants I would like the tasks to show up under, depending on the selections under Column T & U (High/High; High/Low; Low/Low; Low/High).
I would like to make sure that, for example, if I enter a task in cell R18, it will show up in the next available cell in the appropriate quadrant (for example cell C2).
Hi! A value in a cell can appear if a formula is written in the cell. In your case, you can use the IF AND formula. If my understanding is correct, you can try to write the IF formula in C3 with the conditions AND(T5="High",U5="Low",C2<>"")
You can try to write the value in "in the next available cell" using a VBA macro.
If this does not help, explain the problem in detail.

Hi, I've been racking my brains for the right combinations of formula to check for duplicate rows that have the same combination of multiple values.
For context, and to explain a little more clearly on what I'm trying to do, I work in HR and part of my role is to check the holiday requests of associates so that I can forward a list of requests to their leadership to review. We tend to get repeat requests from many of the associates over the year and so I have a cumulative list of every request from over the year and then the new requests that have come in today.
I have two sets of data, the new list of requests made in the last 24 hours and the previously submitted/reviewed requests that have been made over the last 6 months. Both data sets are set out with the employee's ID and their requested dates and then for the previous requests, I also have the outcomes given by the leadership when initially reviewed.
I need to compare the data sets to check which out of the requests submitted in the last 24 hours have already been submitted previously so that I am only sending new and unique requests to the leadership to be reviewed. I am simply looking to return whether there are any duplicate rows that contain the same combination of employee ID and Requested date and which are genuinely new and unique requests. Thanks in advance :)
Hello! If I understand your task correctly, the following tutorial should help: How to find duplicate rows in Excel.
I'd recommend you to have a look at our Duplicate Remover tool that can help you буквально in a couple of clicks without using formulas, find duplicates or unique values in a column or rows, highlight them by color or copy them to a new worksheet.
The tool is included in the Ultimate Suite for Excel and can be used in a free trial to see how it works.
Hello, i work as a data entry on an international trade business, my main job is to do the tracking of a lot of ships, we have an excel that has 2 main column dates: the date of departure and date of arrival, im looking for a formula that tells me when theres a difference of more than 15 days between each row in those columns.
Hi I am looking to create an excel spreadsheet that can forecast event attendance numbers for 5 regional events (e.g. London / Manchester / Bristol / Leeds / Brighton) by allocating 25+ different smaller local locations (e.g. Liverpool, Leeds, Plymouth, Aberdeen) to a specific regional event. I am trying to model a few options to show what is possible with regional event capacity.
The first step is I need a formula that can work out attendance numbers based on which regional event each local office is allocated to. For example, if 4 attendees from Aberdeen, 1 attendee from Newcastle and 7 attendees from Glasgow travel to Manchester, that means Manchester will have 12 attendees. I think this should be a COUNTIF formula but could you help with an example of one in this context?
The second step is I need an overall summary of which local locations we have sent to which regional events.
For example:
London - Gatwick, Reading, Watford
Manchester - Glasgow, Newcastle, Aberdeen
Bristol - Cardiff, Plymouth
I can't figure out which excel formula I'd need to give me this summary.
The third step is that the regional events will be happening on multiple dates, but I thought I'd try and get the first and second step right first!
Grateful for any help and advice you have on this!
Hello! I can't recommend a formula to you as I don't have your data. For your first question, use the COUNTIF function.
To find multiple values by condition, use these instructions: How to Vlookup multiple values in Excel with criteria.

I am trying to formulate a spreadsheet for sales. we pay a referral fee at different values based on what the product is. I have a spreadsheet together and one column shows the amount to pay the referrer, however i would like it automated. the scenarios we pay away are on the fee we charge, the mortgage we have arranged and the life insurances we have arranged. for a fee, I need it to show IF a column shows (referrers name) and IF a column shows BROKER FEE (chosen from a dropdown of business type) and also IF a column shows the fee is £399 (M), this box (G) must show £127.50.
For the mortgage, i need it to be IF a column shows (referrers name), and IF a column shows mortgage type (chosen from drop down of purchase, remortgage etc.), then this box in the formulated column (G) must show 33% of the value in another column (N).
Hi! Unfortunately, your explanation is not very clear. I don't really understand which data in which columns determines the final result. I think you can use the recommendations in the article above, as well as these guidelines: Nested IF AND statements. If the information in the article is not enough, give an example of source data and desired result. It will help to understand what you want to do.

Hi! Look for the example formulas here: Nested IF in Excel – formula with multiple conditions.
I have a very long nested IF statement that provides me with the most of my desired results. For cells that should be blank, the result is "0". I would like for these to be blank cells. I have tried including another nested IF statement in my original "IF(C4=0,"") but this still provides me with a result of "0". I cannot figure out where I making my mistake.
If you can write such a long formula into a cell, add another nested IF function. It might look something like this:
=IF([your formula]=0,"",[your formula])
If you have a lot of conditions, I recommend using the IFS function. Read more: Use Excel IFS function instead of nested IF. I hope it’ll be helpful.

Hi,
Thank you for helping everyone.
I'm trying this forever and I can't make it work no matter what.
I need a formula that will give me a = value based on a diffente cell value. The problem is that the cell that pulls that information is a drop down that can have 20 different variations.
For example: B4 (the mail cell) is a drop down that has 20 different options. On a different sheet I have the information that will feed the other cells based on B4.
I was able to do this with 1 single option (1 of the variations) but I cannot get it to read the others. It says or too many arguments or too few arguments.
=IFERROR(IF(A4="Anaheim / Garden Grove"),'Data Base'!A2,IF(A4="Manteca / San Francisco"),'Data Base'!A4),IF(A4="Atlanta / LaGrange"),'Data Base'!A6, IF(A4="Baltimore / Perryville"),'Data Base'!A8), "") --- I tried this with ifs, or, and... nothing words.
The one I was able to make work was =IF(ISNUMBER(FIND("Anaheim",B4)),'Data Base'!A2,"invalid"), but B4 can only contain Anaheim. If I try to add another condition it says that it's too many arguments.
Please help. I'm going crazy.
Hi! If I understand your task correctly, this article may be helpful: Excel Nested IF statement: examples, best practices and alternatives. For example, try the SWITCH function as an alternative to nested IF:
=SWITCH(A4, "Anaheim / Garden Grove", 'Data Base'!A2, "Atlanta / LaGrange", 'Data Base'!A6, ........)
You can try the other alternatives suggested in this article.

Please help! I am trying to use some kind of logical test to display the value from a pre-set table on a separate tab, based on the text displayed in the cell being "tested." There are multiple possible values and multiple outputs based on the values which are pulled from that table, and the test needs to be for a specific test.
Essentially, I want to pull a cost by brand, so if D2 displays "Hilton" I want it to pull the value from my data table in the cell that contains the cost for Hilton. If it contains "IHG" I want it to pull the value from my data table in the cell that contains the cost for IHG.
Where did I go wrong on my formula below?
=IF(D2=Best Western, "='Data Table (do not edit)'!B2"), OR,
IF(D2=Choice, "='Data Table (do not edit)'!B3"), OR,
IF(D2=Hilton, "='Data Table (do not edit)'!B4"), OR,
IF(D2=IHG, "='Data Table (do not edit)'!B5"), OR,
IF(D2=Marriott, "='Data Table (do not edit)'!B6"), OR,
IF(D2=Hyatt, "='Data Table (do not edit)'!B7"), OR,
IF(D2=IHG, "='Data Table (do not edit)'!B8")
Hi! In your formula, text values need to be enclosed in quotes. For example, IF(D2="Best Western",'Data Table (do not edit)'!B2).
However, if you want to find the price by brand, I recommend using functions to search the data. For example, you can see detailed explanations and example formulas here: Excel VLOOKUP function tutorial with formula examples and INDEX & MATCH in Excel - better alternative to VLOOKUP.
I hope it’ll be helpful. If something is still unclear, please feel free to ask.

Hi,
How to Count (D71) CONDITIONALLY FORMATTED RED COLOR CELL only (D40:D70)?
Pls guide...
Thanks
Hi! Your question is not clear. But perhaps you will find this article useful: Excel conditional formatting for dates & time: formulas and rules.
Hi, Can you help with the below case?
In one column I have employee levels - L7, L8, L9,10
In the other column, I have calculated their time in level (In months).
Now I would like to apply a criteria-based formula to arrive at the eligibility.
If L07 employees have completed more than 24 months, they would be "eligible", or else "ineligible". For the rest of the levels, there isno level criteria and hence they will all be eligible.
Please help
Hi! Since you have two conditions, I recommend using the paragraph in the article above: Excel IF statement with multiple conditions (AND logic). Also I recommend reading this guide: Nested IF in Excel with AND statements. I hope my advice will help you solve your task.
Thanks!
I've tried using this formula - =IF(OR(AND(U3="L07",BM3>=12),"Eligible","Not Eligible"),AND(U3="L06","L08","L09"),"Eligible")
But it gives me the correct status for L06,L08 and L09 levels but for L07 level where there is criteria - It shows FALSE
Could you please help?
Hi! If I understand your task correctly, try the following formula:
=IF(U3="L07", IF(BM3>=12,"Eligible","Not Eligible"), IF(OR(U3="L06","L08","L09"),"Eligible"))
Course title postal code
============================
Course 1 - Forklift 122222
Course 2 - Technical 444444
Course 3 - Writing 333333
If the course is under "Forklift", it will auto assign to Sales D and no need to check the postal code.
If the course is not under "Forklift", then we will pick up the 1st 2 digits of the postal code and assign to respective sales name.
example: between 01-22 is under sales A,
between 23-44 is under sales B,
between 45 - 55 is under sales C,
between 56 - 99 is under sales D
Hi! It is not clear from your description exactly what result you want to get. However, you can extract the first two digits from the postal code using the LEFT function. This instruction will help you to use multiple conditions in the formula: Nested IF in Excel – formula with multiple conditions. To get a more accurate answer, describe the problem in detail.
Hello,
I have two sets of data, Data Set 1 has a list of items on customer pricing contracts. Each contract is for a specific sales location (branch). There are three locations: Location 1, 2 & 3. My goal is to indicate which items on the customer contracts in Data Set 1 have a stock status of Yes or No (y/n) and other attributed data based on Data Set 2; I will explain below.
Data Set 2 has a list of items at each sales location (branch) with its stock status (y/n), min/max level & qty on hand. This information is different based on the sales location. See below for example:
• At location 1: Item ABC has a stock status of Y, min/max is 1/2, Qty on hand is 2
• At location 2: Item ABC stock status is N
• At location 3: Item ABC stock status is Y, min/max is 5/10, Qty on hand is 10
So, I need to create a nested IF statement with multiple lookups that says if in Data Set 1, the item is on a customer contract for Sales Location 1, then I want to pull from Data Set 2 the Stock Status, min/max & Qty on Hand for Location 1.
Hi, I'm trying to complete a formula where IF D5 says Low or Moderate, then the output would say "NA" and if D5 say High or Sensitive (or the value of Low, Moderate is false), then the output would be blank. I've tried using variations of this and keep getting an error: =IF(AND(D5="Low",D5="Moderate"),"NA","")
Sir I have a case, I have 5 category of revenue: Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum Diamond.
Now I have 3 column with header; Category Revenue 2022, Category Revenue 2023, and Movement Category
what's the function if;
(column 1 2022) = (column 2 2023) = (column 3 Movement Category)
Bronze = Bronze = Stay
Bronze = Silver = Upgrade 1 Level
Bronze = Gold = Upgrade 2 Level
Bronze = Platinum = Upgrade 3 Level
Bronze = Diamond = Upgrade 4 Level
Silver = Bronze = Downgrade 1 Level
Silver = Silver = Stay
Silver = Gold = Upgrade 1 Level
Silver = Platinum = Upgrade 2 Level
Silver = Diamond = Upgrade 3 Level
etc to Diamond
can I make it to be 1 formula?
Thanks I appreciate your reply, one by one of people cases
I will follow your Instagram or YouTube if you have it
Hello, i am trying to figure out how to get the following. I have 3 columns, (A, B and C). Columns A and B have 2 lots of data in, lets say column A has the names Tom, James and Martin, and Column B has Cow, Dog and Hat. Column C has Yes, No, or Maybe. And then I have multiples of the options, so Tom, Cow, Yes, Tom Dog, No, Tom Hat, Maybe, James Cow Yes etc.
I then have dropdowns that point to columns A and B respectively. I want to have a formula that says if the Dropdown A says Tom, and Dropdown B says Dog, then we get the relevant column C option. If A says Tom, and B says Dog, we get the relevant C option etc etc.
I am assuming its a form of IF formula but cant figure out which one,
