by The tutorial shows how to create multiple IF statements in Excel with AND as well as OR logic. Also, you will learn how to use IF together with other Excel functions.
In the first part of our Excel IF tutorial, we looked at how to construct a simple IF statement with one condition for text, numbers, dates, blanks and non-blanks. For powerful data analysis, however, you may often need to evaluate multiple conditions at a time. The below formula examples will show you the most effective ways to do this.
How to use IF function with multiple conditions
In essence, there are two types of the IF formula with multiple criteria based on the AND / OR logic. Consequently, in the logical test of your IF formula, you should use one of these functions:
- AND function - returns TRUE if all the conditions are met; FALSE otherwise.
- OR function - returns TRUE if any single condition is met; FALSE otherwise.
To better illustrate the point, let's investigate some real-life formulas examples.
Excel IF statement with multiple conditions (AND logic)
The generic formula of Excel IF with two or more conditions is this:
Translated into a human language, the formula says: If condition 1 is true AND condition 2 is true, return value_if_true; else return value_if_false.
Suppose you have a table listing the scores of two tests in columns B and C. To pass the final exam, a student must have both scores greater than 50.
For the logical test, you use the following AND statement: AND(B2>50, C2>50)
If both conditions are true, the formula will return "Pass"; if any condition is false - "Fail".
=IF(AND(B2>50, B2>50), "Pass", "Fail")
Easy, isn't it? The screenshot below proves that our Excel IF /AND formula works right:
In a similar manner, you can use the Excel IF function with multiple text conditions.
For instance, to output "Good" if both B2 and C2 are greater than 50, "Bad" otherwise, the formula is:
=IF(AND(B2="pass", C2="pass"), "Good!", "Bad")
Important note! The AND function checks all the conditions, even if the already tested one(s) evaluated to FALSE. Such behavior is a bit unusual since in most of programming languages, subsequent conditions are not tested if any of the previous tests has returned FALSE.
In practice, a seemingly correct IF statement may result in an error because of this specificity. For example, the below formula would return #DIV/0! ("divide by zero" error) if cell A2 is equal to 0:
=IF(AND(A2<>0, (1/A2)>0.5),"Good", "Bad")
The avoid this, you should use a nested IF function:
=IF(A2<>0, IF((1/A2)>0.5, "Good", "Bad"), "Bad")
For more information, please see IF AND formula in Excel.
Excel IF function with multiple conditions (OR logic)
To do one thing if any condition is met, otherwise do something else, use this combination of the IF and OR functions:
The difference from the IF / AND formula discussed above is that Excel returns TRUE if any of the specified conditions is true.
So, if in the previous formula, we use OR instead of AND:
=IF(OR(B2>50, B2>50), "Pass", "Fail")
Then anyone who has more than 50 points in either exam will get "Pass" in column D. With such conditions, our students have a better chance to pass the final exam (Yvette being particularly unlucky failing by just 1 point :)
Tip. In case you are creating a multiple IF statement with text and testing a value in one cell with the OR logic (i.e. a cell can be "this" or "that"), then you can build a more compact formula using an array constant.
For example, to mark a sale as "closed" if cell B2 is either "delivered" or "paid", the formula is:
=IF(OR(B2={"delivered", "paid"}), "Closed", "")
More formula examples can be found in Excel IF OR function.
IF with multiple AND & OR statements
If your task requires evaluating several sets of multiple conditions, you will have to utilize both AND & OR functions at a time.
In our sample table, suppose you have the following criteria for checking the exam results:
- Condition 1: exam1>50 and exam2>50
- Condition 2: exam1>40 and exam2>60
If either of the conditions is met, the final exam is deemed passed.
At first sight, the formula seems a little tricky, but in fact it is not! You just express each of the above conditions as an AND statement and nest them in the OR function (since it's not necessary to meet both conditions, either will suffice):
OR(AND(B2>50, C2>50), AND(B2>40, C2>60)
Then, use the OR function for the logical test of IF and supply the desired value_if_true and value_if_false values. As the result, you get the following IF formula with multiple AND / OR conditions:
=IF(OR(AND(B2>50, C2>50), AND(B2>40, C2>60), "Pass", "Fail")
The screenshot below indicates that we've done the formula right:
Naturally, you are not limited to using only two AND/OR functions in your IF formulas. You can use as many of them as your business logic requires, provided that:
- In Excel 2007 and higher, you have no more than 255 arguments, and the total length of the IF formula does not exceed 8,192 characters.
- In Excel 2003 and lower, there are no more than 30 arguments, and the total length of your IF formula does not exceed 1,024 characters.
Nested IF statement to check multiple logical tests
If you want to evaluate multiple logical tests within a single formula, then you can nest several functions one into another. Such functions are called nested IF functions. They prove particularly useful when you wish to return different values depending on the logical tests' results.
Here's a typical example: suppose you want to qualify the students' achievements as "Good", "Satisfactory" and "Poor" based on the following scores:
- Good: 60 or more (>=60)
- Satisfactory: between 40 and 60 (>40 and <60)
- Poor: 40 or less (<=40)
Before writing a formula, consider the order of functions you are going to nest. Excel will evaluate the logical tests in the order they appear in the formula. Once a condition evaluates to TRUE, the subsequent conditions are not tested, meaning the formula stops after the first TRUE result.
In our case, the functions are arranged from largest to smallest:
=IF(B2>=60, "Good", IF(B2>40, "Satisfactory", "Poor"))
Naturally, you can nest more functions if needed (up to 64 in modern versions).
For more information, please see How to use multiple nested IF statements in Excel.
Excel IF array formula with multiple conditions
Another way to get an Excel IF to test multiple conditions is by using an array formula.
To evaluate conditions with the AND logic, use the asterisk:
To test conditions with the OR logic, use the plus sign:
To complete an array formula correctly, press the Ctrl + Shift + Enter keys together. In Excel 365 and Excel 2021, this also works as a regular formula due to support for dynamic arrays.
For example, to get "Pass" if both B2 and C2 are greater than 50, the formula is:
=IF((B2>50) * (C2>50), "Pass", "Fail")
In my Excel 365, a normal formula works just fine (as you can see in the screenshots above). In Excel 2019 and lower, remember to make it an array formula by using the Ctrl + Shift + Enter shortcut.
To evaluate multiple conditions with the OR logic, the formula is:
=IF((B2>50) + (C2>50), "Pass", "Fail")
Using IF together with other functions
This section explains how to use IF in combination with other Excel functions and what benefits this gives to you.
Example 1. If #N/A error in VLOOKUP
When VLOOKUP or other lookup function cannot find something, it returns a #N/A error. To make your tables look nicer, you can return zero, blank, or specific text if #N/A. For this, use this generic formula:
For example:
If #N/A return 0:
If the lookup value in E1 is not found, the formula returns zero.
=IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(E1, A2:B10, 2,FALSE )), 0, VLOOKUP(E1, A2:B10, 2, FALSE))
If #N/A return blank:
If the lookup value is not found, the formula returns nothing (an empty string).
=IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(E1, A2:B10, 2,FALSE )), "", VLOOKUP(E1, A2:B10, 2, FALSE))
If #N/A return certain text:
If the lookup value is not found, the formula returns specific text.
=IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(E1, A2:B10, 2,FALSE )), "Not found", VLOOKUP(E1, A2:B10, 2, FALSE))
For more formula examples, please see VLOOKUP with IF statement in Excel.
Example 2. IF with SUM, AVERAGE, MIN and MAX functions
To sum cell values based on certain criteria, Excel provides the SUMIF and SUMIFS functions.
In some situations, your business logic may require including the SUM function in the logical test of IF. For example, to return different text labels depending on the sum of the values in B2 and C2, the formula is:
=IF(SUM(B2:C2)>130, "Good", IF(SUM(B2:C2)>110, "Satisfactory", "Poor"))
If the sum is greater than 130, the result is "good"; if greater than 110 – "satisfactory', if 110 or lower – "poor".
In a similar fashion, you can embed the AVERAGE function in the logical test of IF and return different labels based on the average score:
=IF(AVERAGE(B2:C2)>65, "Good", IF(AVERAGE(B2:C2)>55, "Satisfactory", "Poor"))
Assuming the total score is in column D, you can identify the highest and lowest values with the help of the MAX and MIN functions:
=IF(D2=MAX($D$2:$D$10), "Best result", "")
=IF(D2=MAX($D$2:$D$10), "Best result", "")
To have both labels in one column, nest the above functions one into another:
=IF(D2=MAX($D$2:$D$10), "Best result", IF(D2=MIN($D$2:$D$10), "Worst result", ""))
Likewise, you can use IF together with your custom functions. For example, you can combine it with GetCellColor or GetCellFontColor to return different results based on a cell color.
In addition, Excel provides a number of functions to calculate data based on conditions. For detailed formula examples, please check out the following tutorials:
Example 3. IF with ISNUMBER, ISTEXT and ISBLANK
To identify text, numbers and blank cells, Microsoft Excel provides special functions such as ISTEXT, ISNUMBER and ISBLANK. By placing them in the logical tests of three nested IF statements, you can identify all different data types in one go:
=IF(ISTEXT(A2), "Text", IF(ISNUMBER(A2), "Number", IF(ISBLANK(A2), "Blank", "")))
Example 4. IF and CONCATENATE
To output the result of IF and some text into one cell, use the CONCATENATE or CONCAT (in Excel 2016 - 365) and IF functions together. For example:
=CONCATENATE("You performed ", IF(B1>100,"fantastic!", IF(B1>50, "well", "poor")))
=CONCAT("You performed ", IF(B1>100,"fantastic!", IF(B1>50, "well", "poor")))
Looking at the screenshot below, you'll hardly need any explanation of what the formula does:
IF ISERROR / ISNA formula in Excel
The modern versions of Excel have special functions to trap errors and replace them with another calculation or predefined value - IFERROR (in Excel 2007 and later) and IFNA (in Excel 2013 and later). In earlier Excel versions, you can use the IF ISERROR and IF ISNA combinations instead.
The difference is that IFERROR and ISERROR handle all possible Excel errors, including #VALUE!, #N/A, #NAME?, #REF!, #NUM!, #DIV/0!, and #NULL!. While IFNA and ISNA specialize solely in #N/A errors.
For example, to replace the "divide by zero" error (#DIV/0!) with your custom text, you can use the following formula:
=IF(ISERROR(A2/B2), "N/A", A2/B2)
And that's all I have to say about using the IF function in Excel. I thank you for reading and hope to see you on our blog next week!

Please be so kind and support me with the formula:
=IF(AND($K13;"";$N13;"";$O13;"");"No Risk";IF(AND($K13;"";$N13;"";O13;"");"Middle Risk"))
Somehow it doesn't work and I get only "No Risk" based on first logical test.
Thank you
Hello Olya!
You used the same formulas for different IF conditions. Maybe you should use something like this formula
=IF(AND($K13="",$N13="",$O13=""),"No Risk", IF(AND($K13<>"",$N13<>"",O13<>""),"Middle Risk",""))
I hope this will help, otherwise please do not hesitate to contact me anytime.

Hello!
If I understand your task correctly, the following formula should work for you:
=CHOOSE(MATCH("*"&LEFT(F2, 3)&"*", {"AL ,N1 ,N2 ,N3 ,NW ,EN ","SL9,SL0,WD ,HP ","SG ,LU ,CM ,CB ,RM ","GU ,TW ,KT ,SL5,SL4","SL3,HA ,UB "},0), "Area 1","Area 2","Area 3","Area 4","Area 5")
I hope this will help
This worked. I just had to change the F2,2 and will just have to ignore the 3 chars as this will complicate allot of it more. Thanks you again Alex.
I am trying to make a column populate a specific rate based on criteria in the two columns before it.
Column 1 is their name
Column C is their insurance (BLTC or MCLTC)
Column D is the level assigned (Level 1, Level 2, level 3)
Column E is the rate per day we receive based on insurance and level as they are distinct. For example if you have BLTC and are a level 2 it would be $207.31. If you are MCLTC and level 2 is would be $200.07. I would like column 4 to auto populate based on insurance and level as the rates are specific by insurance and level.
Can anyone help me with this? Thanks in advance!

Hello Sean!
Your conditions contradict each other. What if both column A = 1 and column B = 1? If both conditions are met? Read carefully the IF function with multiple conditions above.
=IF(E2>=70, "Excellent", IF(E2>=60, "Good", IF(E2>40, "Satisfactory", "Poor ")))
What are the best alternatives for this formula?
I tried = If(AND...), / If(OR...) but couldn't get the expected result.
Little help will be well appreciated.

Hello Sabina!
I’m sorry but your task is not entirely clear to me. Could you please describe it in more detail?
What does it mean "IF M3="Transfer Debit"=N"??
Thank you!
Hi Alexander, thanks for your quick response so basically I need to add an extra criteria to the formula. The first part is fine but the extra condition is basically but if cell M3 contains the text Transfer Debit change it to N... is this even possible? Or would it be a completely different formula?
(summary of formula - If column C = A and column I < 1 = Y but if M3 = Transfer Debit N and everything else N).. hope this makes sense, sorry I'm not great at excel so might be why i am not very clear.
Hello Sabina!
If I understand your task correctly, the following formula should work for you:
=IF(M3="Transfer Debit","N", IF(AND(C3=$A$3,I3 < 1),"Y","N"))

Hello Joe!
You need to use the function NDEX MATCH with multiple criteria in rows and columns. Read these instructions in detail.
If you need any further assistance, please don’t hesitate to ask.
Hi, I want to take a table where column A is a simple numbered list, 1-10, and column B is the value corresponding to the number to it's left in that row, in column A. Then I want to automate my spreadsheet so that when I enter any number, 1-10, in column C, it returns the correct value from the table. I know how If and OR and INDEX work, but I cannot figure out how to create the command, which I am assuming will be a string of 10 nested commands, such as for my 1st entry in C1: "If(OR(A1=1,"B1"),(A1=2,"B2"),(A1=3,"B3"))...etc". Thanks!
Hello Peter!
if you entered a number in cell C1, you can replace it with some other value only using the VBA macro. A cell can contain either a value or a formula. Depending on the value of C1, cell D1 can be changed.
Hi I am working on a shift schedule where we have different shifts namely as follow:
Shift: 1 - 06h00 - 14h00 = 6hours
Shift: 2 - 14h00 - 20h00 = 6hours
Shift: 3 - 20h00 - 06h00 = 10hours
Shift: 4 - 08h00 - 17h00 = 9hours
Shift: + - 06h00 - 10h00 & 16h00 - 20h00 = 8hours
Shift: N - 18h00 - 06h00 = 12hours
or if employee is off then it will be a Letter O and that should equal to 0
So the idea is that should an employee work a shift on say block C9, whether it is any of the above shifts that it automatically gives the hours on the on say block K9.
So I tried the following formula but it simple does not work.
=IF(C9=1;6;0)OR(IF(C9=2;6;0;)(IF(C9=3;10;0)(IF(C9=4;9;0)(IF(C9=+;8;0)(IF(C9=N;12;0)(IF(C9=O;0;0)
Not to sure if I explained it correctly, but hope you can help with this.
Hello Dwayne!
If I understand your task correctly, the following formula should work for you:
=IF(OR(C9=1,C9=2),6, IF(C9=3,10, IF(C9=4,9, IF(C9=""+"",8, IF(C9=""N"",12, IF(C9=""O"",0,0))))))
Hope this is what you need.

If P3 is >0.05 then P3-0.05
If P3 is <-0.05 then P3+0.05
if P3 is in between 0.05 and -0.05 then PASSED
HOW TO WRITE FORMULA
THANKS :)
=IF(P3>0.05,P3-0.05,IF(P3<-0.05,P3+0.05,"Passed"))
Hello Charles!
If I understand your task correctly, the following formula IF should work for you:
=IF(P3 > 0.05,P3-0.05, IF(P3 < -0.05,P3+0.05, "PASSED" ) )
I hope this will help
=IF((AND(H6,H8,H11)="Valid"),"Valid","Invalid")
Can you please identify the problem
I am trying to pass on a text" Valid" when all 3 cells display "Valid" otherwise "Invalid"
