Multiple IF statements are giving me a FALSE response instead of the requested BLANK.
I figured that the last of the IF statements that has a "" would give BLANK if none of the conditions are met.
I've tried isolating each IF to see if I'm missing a statement but I don't see it.
Here is my formula:
=IF((LEFT(D5,2))=H2,IF(C5="Yearly",G5,IF(C5="Fixed Monthly",G5/12,"")))
How can I modify this formula so that it does not give me a FALSE and instead gives me a BLANK as requested on the 3rd IF statement.
Thank you.
You may an else condition to the first if statement:
Here is my formula:
=IF(LEFT(D5,2)=H2, IF(C5="Yearly",
G5,
IF(C5="Fixed Monthly",G5/12,"")),
"") <-- add this
My guesd is that because you did not specify an explicit else condition, Excel is defaulting to showing FALSE.

I have a question on using two functions with an if statement in Google Sheets as one complete function. Both variables have to be true, otherwise it returns false. I need one function to check the date 20 months back from today. If said cell is less than today's date 20 months back it's true, naturally. However, for the complete function to return true it also searches for another text value in another cell and has to be an exact match. Both conditions have to be true (the date and the exact match) for the function to be true. So if the date in the cell is less than today's date 20 months back and the text value in the other cell is an exact match, function is true.
Problem is that it seems like the date function does not seem to apply.
=IF(D2<DATE(YEAR(TODAY()),MONTH(TODAY())-20,DAY(TODAY())),AND(REGEXMATCH(M2,"text")),TRUE,FALSE)
You current formula is not set up correctly (nor logically). Given only what you've shown here, this should work:
=IF(AND( D2<DATE(YEAR(TODAY()),MONTH(TODAY())-20,DAY(TODAY())), REGEXMATCH(M2,"text") ),TRUE,FALSE)
Notice that the AND( ) contains both conditions here, whereas your original formula had it only around the second condition.
However, a shorter version of this would be as follows:
=AND( D2<DATE(YEAR(TODAY()),MONTH(TODAY())-20,DAY(TODAY())), REGEXMATCH(M2,"text") )
... since the result of a properly functioning AND( ) is always TRUE or FALSE anyway.
It looks like you're supplying 4 arguments to the IF statement:
=IF(DATECHECK,AND(TEXTCHECK),TRUE,FALSE)
The IF statement expects 3 arguments instead. 1) the condition, 2) the value if true, and 3) the value if false. You can combine your two conditions using an AND statement like this:
AND(DATECHECK,TEXTCHECK)
The final formula would then be:
=IF(AND(D2<DATE(YEAR(TODAY()),MONTH(TODAY())-20,DAY(TODAY())), REGEXMATCH(M2,"text")),TRUE,FALSE)
My current formula populates Missed, Meets, Nearly Meets, and Exceeds. But I can't seem to figure out how to include "N/A" or create a blank cell in the formula.
My forumla so far:
=if(AND(L40>=14.5, L40<=16.4),"Nearly Meets", if(AND(L40>=4.5, L40<=14.4),"Meets", if(AND(L40>=15.5),"Missed","Exceeds")))
So, if L40 has any range of these number, M40 populates any of these Texts. How can I add to the formula so a blank cell populates "N/A" . Or, entering "TBD" in a cell leaves it blank or populates "N/A"
I'd rather use IFS formula or VLOOKUP here. It's short and clear.
=ifna(vlookup(B2,F2:G6,2,true),"value not found")
On a side you make a table of requirements and go through it using vlookup.
If you have no space anywhere in your sheet, you can also include value table into your formula using curly brackets:
=ifna(vlookup(B2,{0,"Missed";4.5,"Nealry Meets";14.4,"Meets";15.5,"Exceeds";"","Empty"},2,true),"value not found")
For values outside the set you can use IFNA formula.
If you use indentation before writing the final formula, it looks like this:
if(AND(L40>4.4; L40<=16.4){
"Nearly Meets";
}
else if(AND(L40>=4.5; L40<=14.4){
"Meets";
}
else if(L40>16.4){
"Missed";
}
else if(L40 = ""){
"N/A";
}
else {
"EXCEEDS"
}
Notice that I didn't use the condition if(L40<4.5), because a blank cell can be interpreted as 0, which is always less than 4.5, so you would never reach the N/A condition. By better determining your ranges, it gets easier to escape the exceeds case. It may not be your case, but if you had 2 or more digits after the decimal point, it could give you an unexpected result.
That said, you can now use the formula as
=if(AND(L40>4.4, L40<=16.4), "Nearly Meets", if(AND(L40>=4.5, L40<=14.4), "Meets", if(L40>16.4, "Missed", if(L40 = "", "N/A", "EXCEEDS"))))
I am getting two values one is printing Cash and other is printing CASH in sap crystal report. Now, I want that wherever Cash is showing at that time value should be false while if CASH is printing then the value should show true. So, for that I added the formula but didnt work,
here is my formula,
if(ProperCase({TmpSalesBillInstallmentReport.PaymentType}) = true)
then {TmpSalesBillInstallmentReport.PaymentType}= '0'
else if(UpperCase({TmpSalesBillInstallmentReport.PaymentType}) = true)
{TmpSalesBillInstallmentReport.PaymentType} = '1'
This formula is not working, even getting error i.e. A Boolean Is Required Here(indicating on the first line)
I surfing in net but didnt get related question also.
IF {TmpSalesBillInstallmentReport.PaymentType} = "CASH" Then True ELSE False;
Note: A Crystal formula cannot assign a value to a database field. The field value is Read Only!
UpperCase() function is not a test that returns true or false. It simply returns the text argument after converting it to all upper case.
You might have a setting causing comparisons to be case insensitive.

I'm trying to highlight a row if the number of blank cells between say, C1 and E1 = 3
and then copy this down for every row.
I've tried using:
=IF(COUNTBLANK($C1:$E1)=3)
But it's not working, can anybody help?
Under conditional formatting, your formula should be the following based on what you've given. The reason is conditional format is trying to see the result as TRUE or False. The IF statement is trying to tell the computer what to do when it's TRUE or FALSE.
COUNTBLANK($C1:$E1)=3
if you want to use IF you will need to do it like this:
=IF(COUNTBLANK($C1:$E1)=3, 1)
I'm trying to return a value in Google sheets.
This is done using an Index Match as follows, which does work:
=iferror(index(Data!B:B, match(B5339,Data!G:G,0)),"Not Found")
I'd now like to expand this, so that if this first test fails, try looking up that same data in another sheet....
=iferror(if(index(Data!B:B, match(B5340,Data!G:G,0),if(index(HeadOfficeLeads!B:B, match(B5340,HeadOfficeLeads!A:A,0))))),"Not found")
This outputs the fail msg of "Not Found".
However, although the first test is indeed false, the second test is true (this second data set does in fact hold a match).
NB - the data containing this correct match on the 2nd sheet is created by a UNIQUE ( FILTER, FWIW....
For some reason, it doesnt look like the second IF statement is being run - and the whole thing doesnt work, giving the error "Wrong number of arguments".
I have a feeling the argument issue is that the first test doesnt have an "if false" clause - but believe the "IFERROR" parent should handle this?
If not, where would I put the "if false clause" for the IF's?
You don't need any if, because iferror already contains an if statement in its logic (as its name suggests). Here is an example of nested iferror statements, simplified for clarity:
=iferror(match("a", A1:A5, 0), iferror(match("a", B1:B5", 0), "not found"))
This will return the position of "a" in column A, if it's there; otherwise, it will return its position in column B if it's there, otherwise it returns "not found".
Works the same with index or anything else around match function.
