I want this formula to calculate a date based on input from two other dates. I first wrote it for a single cell and it gives the expected results but when I try to use ARRAYFORMULA it returns the wrong results.
I first use two if statements specifycing what should happen if either one of the inputs is missing. Then the final if statement calculates the date if both are present based on two conditions. This seems to work perfectly if I write the formula for one cell and drag it down.
=IF( (LEN(G19)=0);(U19+456);(IF((LEN(U19)=0) ;(G19);(IF((AND((G19<(U19+456));(G19>(U19+273)) ));(G19);(U19+456))))))
However, when I want to use arrayformula to apply it to the entire column, it always returns the value_if_false if neither cell is empty, regardless of whether the conditions in the if statement are actually met or not. I am specifically talking about the last part of the formula that calculates the date if both input values are present, it always returns the result of U19:U+456 even when the result should be G19:G. Here is how I tried to write the ARRAYFORMULA:
={"Date deadline";ARRAYFORMULA(IF((LEN(G19:G400)=0);(U19:U400+456);(IF((LEN(U19:U400)=0);
(G19:G400);(IF((AND((G19:G400<(U19:U400+456));(G19:G400>(U19:U400+273)) ));(G19:G400);(U19:U400+456)))))))}
I am a complete beginner who only learned to write formulas two weeks ago, so any help or tips would be greatly appreciated!
AND and OR are not compatible with ARRAYFORMULA
Replace them by * or +
Try
={"Date deadline";ARRAYFORMULA(
IF((LEN(G19:G400)=0),(U19:U400+456),
(IF((LEN(U19:U400)=0), (G19:G400),
(IF((((G19:G400<(U19:U400+456))*(G19:G400>(U19:U400+273)) )),(G19:G400),
(U19:U400+456)))
))
)
)}
Keep in mind you cannot use AND, OR operators in an arrayformula, so you must find an alternative method such as multiplying the values together and checking them for 0 or 1 (true*true=1)
I am gathering based on your formula's and work that you want to have the following:
If G19 is blank show U19 + 456
If U19 is blank show G19
If G19 is less than U19 + 456 but greater than U19 + 273 show G19
Otherwise show U19 + 456
I'm not too sure what you want to happen when both columns G and U are empty. Based on your current formula you are returning an empty cell + 456... but with this formula it returns an empty cell rather than Column U + 456
Formula
={"Date deadline";ARRAYFORMULA(TO_DATE(ARRAYFORMULA(IFS((($G19:$G400="")*($U19:$U400=""))>0,"",$G19:$G400="",$U19:$U400+456,$U19:$U400="",$G19:$G400,(($G19:$G400<$U19:$U400+456)*($G19:$G400>$U19:$U400+273))>0,$G19:$G400,TRUE,$U19:$U400+456))))}
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)
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 have two columns of data in "Meds" sheet...
MedContinuing AgeAtMedStop
Yes "Blank"
Yes 72.22
No "Blank"
No 72.57
"Blank" 73.85
I am writing a formula in a separate sheet to return 1 or 0 based on the following:
If MedContinuing is "Blank", do nothing
If MedContinuing is "No" and AgeAtMedStop is blank, do nothing
If MedContinuing is "Yes" and AgeAtMedStop is "Blank", return 1. If AgeAtMedStop is a number, return 0.
If MedContinuing is "No" and AgeAtMedStop is a number, return 1. Otherwise, return nothing.
I was able to write two separate functions (see below) for when MedContinuing is "Yes" or when it is "No", but I need to combine both into one formula.
When it's Yes...
=IF(INDEX(Meds!2:2,MATCH("MedContinuing",Meds!$1:$1,0))="","",
IF(INDEX(Meds!2:2,MATCH("MedContinuing",Meds!$1:$1,0))="No","",
IF(AND(INDEX(Meds!2:2,MATCH("MedContinuing",Meds!$1:$1,0))="Yes",INDEX(Meds!2:2,MATCH("AgeAtMedStop",Meds!$1:$1,0))=""),1,0)))
When it's No...
=IF(INDEX(Meds!2:2,MATCH("MedContinuing",Meds!$1:$1,0))="","",
IF(INDEX(Meds!2:2,MATCH("MedContinuing",Meds!$1:$1,0))="Yes","",
IF(AND(INDEX(Meds!2:2,MATCH("MedContinuing",Meds!$1:$1,0))="No",INDEX(Meds!2:2,MATCH("AgeAtMedStop",Meds!$1:$1,0))=""),"",
IF(AND(INDEX(Meds!2:2,MATCH("MedContinuing",Meds!$1:$1,0))="No",INDEX(Meds!2:2,MATCH("AgeAtMedStop",Meds!$1:$1,0))>0),1,0))))
EDIT: Solution
Using Peter K's logic...
=IF(INDEX(Meds!6:6,MATCH("MedContinuing",Meds!$1:$1,0))="","",
IF(AND(INDEX(Meds!6:6,MATCH("MedContinuing",Meds!$1:$1,0))="No",INDEX(Meds!6:6,MATCH("AgeAtMedStop",Meds!$1:$1,0))=""),"",
IF(AND(INDEX(Meds!6:6,MATCH("MedContinuing",Meds!$1:$1,0))="Yes",INDEX(Meds!6:6,MATCH("AgeAtMedStop",Meds!$1:$1,0))=""),1,
IF(AND(INDEX(Meds!6:6,MATCH("MedContinuing",Meds!$1:$1,0))="Yes",INDEX(Meds!6:6,MATCH("AgeAtMedStop",Meds!$1:$1,0))>0),0,
IF(AND(INDEX(Meds!6:6,MATCH("MedContinuing",Meds!$1:$1,0))="No",INDEX(Meds!6:6,MATCH("AgeAtMedStop",Meds!$1:$1,0))>0),1,"")))))
It is not entirely clear from your question why you would use INDEX and MATCH functions for such straightforward problem ?
I suggest to start with the basic nested if function :
=IF(A2="";"";IF(A2="No";IF(B2="";"";1);IF(B2="";1;0)))
You can put this function next to your two columns, and then copy to another worksheet, so the references are taken care of by Excel.
I also assume that your data is clean and correct i.e. only the 3 possible values for MedContinuing ("Yes", "No" or blank) and 2 for AgeAtMedStop (blank or a number) exist in your columns, so no IF test is needed to eliminate other possible values.
You can try this method below
I have created a helper table for the logic you require, it will help to update or extend the logic in future
Formula in cell C2 is
=INDEX($F$2:$G$4,MATCH(A2,$E$2:$E$4,0),IF(B2="Blank",1,IF(ISNUMBER(B2),2,0)))
