Excel IF AND OR functions on their own aren’t very exciting, but mix them up with the IF Statement and you’ve got yourself a formula that’s much more powerful.
In this tutorial we’re going to take a look at the basics of the AND and OR functions and then put them to work with an IF Statement. If you aren’t familiar with the IF function, read this first > Excel IF Statement Explained.

IF Formula Builder
Our IF Formula Builder does the hard work of creating IF formulas.
You just need to enter a few pieces of information, and the workbook creates the formula for you.
AND Function
The AND function belongs to the logic family of formulas, along with IF, OR and a few others. It’s useful when you have multiple conditions that must be met.
In Excel language on its own the AND formula reads like this:
=AND(logical1,[logical2]....)
Now to translate into English:
=AND(is condition 1 true, AND condition 2 true (add more conditions if you want)
OR Function
The OR function is useful when you are happy if one, OR another condition is met.
In Excel language on its own the OR formula reads like this:
=OR(logical1,[logical2]....)
Now to translate into English:
=OR(is condition 1 true, OR condition 2 true (add more conditions if you want)
See, I did say they weren’t very exciting, but let’s mix them up with IF and put AND and OR to work.
IF AND Formula
First let’s set the scene of our challenge for the IF, AND formula:
In our spreadsheet below we want to calculate a bonus to pay the children’s TV personalities listed. The rules, as devised by my 4 year old son, are:
- If the TV personality is Popular AND
- If they earn less than $100k per year they get a 10% bonus (my 4 year old will write them an IOU, he’s good for it though).
In cell D2 we will enter our IF AND formula as follows:
In English first
=IF(Spider Man is Popular, AND he earns <$100k), calculate his salary x 10%, if not put "Nil" in the cell)
Now in Excel’s language:
=IF(AND(B2="Yes",C2<100),C2x$H$1,"Nil")
You’ll notice that the two conditions are typed in first, and then the outcomes are entered. You can have more than two conditions; in fact you can have up to 30 by simply separating each condition with a comma (see warning below about going overboard with this though).
IF OR Formula
Again let’s set the scene of our challenge for the IF, OR formula:
The revised rules, as devised by my 4 year old son, are:
- If the TV personality is Popular OR
- If they earn less than $100k per year they get a 10% bonus.
In cell D2 we will enter our IF OR formula as follows:
In English first
=IF(Spider Man is Popular, OR he earns <$100k), calculate his salary x 10%, if not put “Nil” in the cell)
Now in Excel’s language:
=IF(OR(B2="Yes",C2<100),C2x$H$1,"Nil")
Notice how a subtle change from the AND function to the OR function has a significant impact on the bonus figure.
Just like the AND function, you can have up to 30 OR conditions nested in the one formula, again just separate each condition with a comma.
Try other operators
You can set your conditions to test for specific text, as I have done in this example with B2="Yes", just put the text you want to check between inverted comas “ ”.
Alternatively you can test for a number and because the AND and OR functions belong to the logic family, you can employ different tests other than the less than (<) operator used in the examples above.
Other operators you could use are:
- = Equal to
- > Greater Than
- <= Less than or equal to
- >= Greater than or equal to
- <> Less than or greater than
Warning: Don’t go overboard with nesting IF, AND, and OR's, as it will be painful to decipher if you or someone else ever needs to update the formula in months or years to come.
Note: These formulas work in all versions of Excel, however versions pre Excel 2007 are limited to 7 nested IF’s.
Excel IF AND OR Practice Questions
IF AND Formula Practice
In the embedded Excel workbook below insert a formula (in the grey cells in column E), that returns the text 'Yes', when a product SKU should be reordered, based on the following criteria:
- If Stock on hand is less than 20,000 AND
- Demand level is 'High'
If the above conditions are met, return 'Yes', otherwise, return 'No'.
Tips for working with the embedded workbook:
- Use arrow keys to move around the worksheet when you can't click on the cells with your mouse
- Use shortcut keys CTRL+C to copy and CTRL+V to paste
- Don't forget to absolute cell references where applicable
- Do not enter anything in column F
- Double click to edit a cell
- Refresh the page to reset the embedded workbook
IF OR Formula Practice
In the embedded Excel workbook below insert a formula (in the grey cells in column E) that calculates the bonus due for each salesperson. A $500 bonus is paid if a salesperson meets either target in cells C24 and C25, otherwise they earn $0 bonus.

Hell Sir I am working on a sheet (data given below). I have a time and want to check if it falls between a given time range or not. The formula i am using is “If(AND(C72>A72,C72<B72), "TRUE", "FALSE")". Column C is extracting value from another timestamp column. It works (Column D) if I add the value manually in Column C but it doesnt work on automatically extracted value. Please help!
A B C D
11:33:48 11:53:48 12:50 FALSE
12:20:22 12:38:21 12:21 TRUE
12:39:27 13:00:09 12:40 TRUE

Hi Aymen,
How are you extracting the values automatically?
Normally, if calculation is set to Automatic, formulas are recalculated when the source cells change.

Joy
I need your help in one topic.
As the Sumifs function does the different criteria with Different range. I need the same in IF condition Kindly help.
For instance
Joy is the employee and he does three task need to check the condition in every task he must have quality of above 98%.
If quality is less than 98% in any of the three task it must return value as Quality is Low for all three columns else if quality is more than 98% for all need to return as Selected in all three columns.
Consider below as given in excel sheet
Name task quality Remarks
Joy. Adhoc. 99.
Joy. Pinning. 97.
Joy. Tagging. 100.
Kindly please help me with the condition
Philip Treacy
Hi Joy,
if your Quality column is D3:D5 then try this
=IF((COUNT($D$3:$D$5)/COUNTIF($D$3:$D$5,”>98″))=1,”Selected”,”Quality is low”)
Note that you haven’t said what do do when the Quality score equals 98.
If you are still stuck please start a topic on our forum and attach your example file with data.

Hi there! I just wanna seek help with this problem I encounter regarding prevention of duplicate entries. Here’s the scenario if the “couple with the same name and same birthdate that encoded already” must prevent to be encoded again as it will be a duplication. Is it possible that two rows will and 2 columns will be the criteria? Thanks for the help
Catalin Bombea
Hi Michael,
Multiple columns can be used as a unique key, but not multiple rows, that is unusual. You should review the way you store information, a unique record should not be split into multiple rows.

Hi Everyone.
Just looking to see, if anyone could help me under stand what this formula is and the meaning behind it =IF(D7>0,0.7,0) im new to IF functions and slowly learning.
ive notice a friend has used this IF Function =IF(D7>0,0.7,0) to calculate milage.
can anyone explain to me how it works, so im able to create one myself, but so i fully understand the meaning behind it.
Thank yous all
Mynda Treacy
Hi Paygan, in English that formula reads:
If the value in cell D7 is greater than 0, return 0.7, otherwise return 0.

kayane kumarasamy
Hi i have an excel project and really struggling with this question. No idea which function to use to label specific words: please see question below.
Use IF, data cleaning and / or lookup formulae to populate the columns for Type, Category and Detail.
>> Type: Codes beginning with “R” should be labelled “Revenue”. Codes beginning with “E” should be labelled “Expense”.
Exampes of codes ” EDA7001″ , RNC2001
>> Category: refer to the Lookups worksheet for the Categories.
>> Detail: refer to the Lookups worksheet for the Detail.
Philip Treacy
Hi Kayane,
You should post this kind of question in our forum along with the workbook that contains the data, because I can’t show you how to do the lookups without your data.
For the Type, you can use string functions:
but if there are only two Types you can use a single IF function for both
For the lookups you could use either VLOOKUP or XLOOKUP

Hi all,
I have 5 students – Adam, Oliver, George, Harry, Jack, Jacob – in cells A2, B2, C2, D2, E2, F2
and I have their grades 4, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 – in cells A3, B3, C3, D3, E3, F3.
I am trying to figure out a formula for the following
1. To give me the lowest grade (i.e. 4) in cell G3 and the respective student’s name in cell H3.
2. To give me the 2nd lowest grade (i.e. 5) in cell I3 and the respective student’s name in cell J3.
Any help would be more than highly appreciated.
Mynda Treacy
Hi James,
You can use the SMALL function, to find the 2nd lowest grade and then use INDEX & MATCH to lookup the corresponding name, but it’s not clear what you want to do in the event of a tie. Please post your question on our Excel forum where you can also upload a sample file and we can help you further.
Vic
Hey all. I am trying to figure out a formula for the following. I have 14 variables of data. If a cell equals a certain number, it will populate with that text. if not, it will show up as false. What I would like to do now, is if the range of X:X = false, look for other text and put that text into another cell. If its:
A1 False B1 text via formula needed in A5
A2 Text
A3 False
A4 False
A5 =formula for what i’m looking for.
I want it to look at the 4 cells and determine what text isn’t false and put it in a different cell. Something like If A1:A4=False, then B1=1 of 14 random texts.
Any help is appreciated! Thanks
Catalin Bombea
Hi Vic,
How can the formula decide which one of the 14 texts should be displayed? Can you describe all conditions (assuming that each of those 14 texts should be displayed when a specific condition is met)?
If there is no rule and one of 14 texts should be randomly displayed:
=IF(COUNTIF(A1:A4,”False”)=4,INDEX({“Date_GR”,”What_GR”,”Where_GR”,”What purchase_GR”,”Tip_GR”,”Sub_total_GR”,”Total_Cost_GR”,”Remarks”,”Where_GR”,”What purchase_GR”,”Tip_GR”,”Sub_total_GR”,”random text 1″,”random text 2″},RANDBETWEEN(1,14)),””)
Vic
Catalin, thank you for your response. I am only going to use 5 texts for example. Okay, I have the following table:
A B C D
1 Txt1 3 Txt3
2 Txt2
3 Txt3
4 Txt4
5 Txt5
When the data shows a number 1-5, it displays the corresponding text.
Since I have 5 values, I have a line for each option.
If the formula is false, it displays false.
Id like to find a formula that selects the range and selects the line automatically that does not read “False”, and displays that text in another cell
A B C D
MODEL# 1 1 Txt1
WANT NAME DISPLAYED HERE: XXXX 2 Txt2
=IF($B$1=$CF$1, “Txt1”) 3 Txt3
=IF($B$2=$CF$2, “Txt2”) 4 Txt4
=IF($B$3=$CF$3, “Txt3”) 5 Txt5
=IF($B$4=$CF$4, “Txt4”)
=IF($B$5=$CF$5, “Txt5”)
Now, I want to take B3:B7 and if #2 is the model number, B4 will read Txt2 and B3,B5,B6,&B7 will read FALSE. I want a formula to look through B3:B7 pick the text that isn’t “FALSE” and display that text in cell B2.
Does this make sense? Please let me know if you have any more questions. Thanks!

Hi,
I am trying to do a formula involving multiple “IF” for the same cell, I have 4 possible answers for the same cell with different outcomes for each, so if (A1) is 0:051(or)0:151 0:2.51.
I have tried the nested ifs from the tutorials and the help in excel, and the “and” “or” but I just can’t seem to get it to give me an increase in the “value” cell…need help if you can please.
Brian Coombs
If A1 [is less than ?? in cell A2] then A3 “=” +3 or if A1 is greater than?? but less than?? [in cell A2] then A3 “=”+4….etc for all four variations
Philip Treacy
Hi Brian,
I’m afraid the problem isn’t quite clear. What kind of value is 0:2.51? Text? But you are trying to check if a value is greater or less than something so you must be working with numbers?
Also with this part if A1 is greater than?? but less than?? [in cell A2] if you have a value in A2 then you can’t check if something else is greater than and less than it. It can only be one or the other.
Please start a topic on our forum and attach the file you are working with so we can understand things better.

2)if ITEM=5100 and if QTY
(C21=0,"0.00",IF(AND(C2149,C21100,C21<301),"2.50",2))))
Mynda Treacy
Hi Sabeen,
Aside from adding the extra criteria, there are some issues with your formula that you may not be aware of. i.e.
1. =IF(C21=0,”0.00″ this will return text in the form of 0.00 not a zero. I presume you actually want a zero. Likewise for “9.50” should be 9.50 and “2.50” should be 2.50.
2. AND(C2149,C21100,C21<301), is only testing if C21 is less than 301. C2149 and C21100 have no logical test. I presume you want to test all 3 cells are < 301.
Assuming the above, then you can use this formula:
=IF(C21=0,0,IF(AND(cell containing the item=5102,C2149<301,C21100<301,C21<301),9.50,IF(C21=0,0,IF(AND(cell containing the item=5100,C2149<301,C21100<301,C21<301),2.50,9))))

Hi there im struggling with a question in an excel assignment, so it goes like this.
“The delivery date should be within 10 days from today expect if the invoice is created in December, then we need 21 days time, hint use an IF statement”
I’ve tried doing the IF statement but it’s just not working, I’ve done.
=IF(TODAY()=”December”, Today()+21,Today()+10)
It does add on 10 days since we not in December, but if i change today’s date to December it still adds on 10 days

Hi Shaylen, the question isn’t clear to me, but looking at your formula, TODAY returns a date, not a month name. If you want to check if the month is the 12th, you’d do this:

Hi Sayali,
I think it would be better to use VLOOKUP or XLOOKUP if you have Microsoft 365/Office 365. You can have a list of the categories (GTS IS:New logo etc.) in a column beside the numbers they match. See links for more detailed tutorials. If you’re still stuck, please post your question and a sample Excel file on our forum where we can help you further.

I need help with adding a formula to an existing MOD formula in a timesheet. I have in column B, Time IN, in column C is Time OUT and column D is Project Hours. The formula I have in cell D2 is =MOD(C2-B2,1). Cells B2 & C2 are formatted as h:mm AM/PM and cell D2 is formatted as h:mm.
If I type 9:00 am in cell B2, and leave cell C2 blank, it shows 15:00 in cell D2 for the Project Hours. I know this is because the formula is based on time and it is showing how many hours between 9:00 am and 12:00 midnight. We have some employees who clock in at 11:00 pm and will clock out after midnight, which is why I have the MOD formula.
Eventually, the employee will type in their Time OUT in cell C2, but until they do so, I don’t want D2 to show 15:00 hours, instead I would like for cell D2 to be blank until cell C2 is typed in. Is there a formula for this that can be included with the existing MOD formula or even a conditional format set?
Thank you.

Please help me make a formula for my data, scenario is this:
Where column B2 is the Release Date and column B5 is the 1st Amort Date.
f the release date (B2) Range from 1 – 25 of the month the 1st Amort Date (B5) should be the 10th of the following Month,
then if the release date (B2) Range from 26 – 31 of the month the 1st Amort Date (B5) should be the 5th of the following Next Month.
Example: B2 – July 15, 2020
B5 – August 10, 2020
then
B2 – July 26, 2020
B5 – September 5, 2020

Hi,
I’m trying to calculate Surcharge where condition should be like this. If C18 is > 50,000,000 then surcharge is 10%, if C18 is >10,000,000 then surcharge is 20%, if C18 is >20,000,000 the surcharge is 30%. But unfortunately, when calculating surcharge value is still 10% even if this amount is more than 10,000,000
Rounded Total taxable income (C18) 10,000,000.00
Total Tax (C20) 2,812,500.00 =ROUND(IF(C18>1000000,(C18-1000000)*30%+112500,IF(C18>500000,(C18-500000)*20%+12500,IF(C18>250000,(C18-250000)*5%,0))),)
Surcharge (C21) 281,250.00 =IF(C18>=5000000,C20*10%,IF(C18>=10000000,C20*15%,IF(C18>=20000000,C20*25%,1)))
Please help.
Philip Treacy
Hi Dev,
IF stops evaluating when it gets a True result and your first test says is C18 >= 5 000 000, which it is. So you get C20*10%.
You need to reorder the tests like this
=IF(C18>=20000000,C20*25%,IF(C18>=10000000,C20*15%,IF(C18>=5000000,C20*10%,1)))

We would like to see which of our orders are generating the most revenue. If an order has an Order Total of more than $1,000, we will call this a “Star” order.
Populate column AG: Star Order Proposal A with the value “Star” if the Order Total is more than $1,000. If it is not, the cell should simply remain blank. How many “Star” orders are there?
Philip Treacy
Hi Sumit,
Without your data it makes it difficult to write the formulae for you. You can post a topic on our forum and attach your file.
However, you could try
=IF(A1>1000,”Star”,””)
You should consider using Conditional Formatting to visually indicate your Star orders by, for example, filling the cell with a colour.
In order to count how many Star orders you have, you can use COUNTA e.g.
=COUNTA(A1:A5)

Phil

how to make formula in this condition after 8:30 and before 16:30, fill the cell color with red
Catalin Bombea
You should use:
=AND($B2>=8.5/24, $B2<=16.5/24) Adjust the starting cell range for conditional formatting as needed. I assume you have time values in the range.

Hello
Can you please help me, I don’t understand more about AND and OR. can you please explain and justify this for me: =AND(E2=”Married”,F2=1)*1
Mynda Treacy
The AND part of this formula: =AND(E2=”Married”,F2=1) returns a TRUE or FALSE. When you perform a math operation on TRUE or FALSE, like in your example, *1, it converts TRUE and FALSE to their numeric equivalents of 1 and 0 respectively, so the result of the formula will always be 0 or 1, depending on whether both logical tests are TRUE or not. I hope that helps.

Hi, i know could you help me understand what this says? also, direct me a page that may explain max & mins? this page was very helpful for the If statements.
MAX(0,MIN((B9-IF(B10=”Y”,B5,0))*B13,B7))
thank you!
Catalin Bombea
Hi Jennifer,
Without context and real practical use, they mean nothing.
There are 2 parts, MIN is used here to put a limitation, the result should not be higher than the limit set in B7, BUT can be lower : MIN( (B9-IF(B10=”Y”,B5,0))*B13, B7)
Then, the result has another condition applied: the result of the MIN function should not be negative, in this case MAX(0,negative number) will always be 0. If MIN returns a positive value, it will obviously be the value returns by MAX calculation.
=MAX(0, resultFrom MIN function )

Ok, so for the first 150 miles your get 25 cents, if you have 190 miles, you get 25 cents for the first 150 and 40 cents for the rest of 40 miles?

basically i want

I just need answer to be one “Yes” or “No”. At the movement I am getting 2 answers like “YesYes” or YesNo” etc because of the & symbol I used in the formula and I am not sure what to use instead of & or if I can use a different formula.

Hi Bharath,
I think this is what you need

if a date is greater than or equal to 15 March 2020 then Yes if not No
Philip Treacy
Hi Bharath,
Without seeing your data and examples of the values in the cells, along with the expected results you want for those values, it’s too easy to misunderstand the the problem when explained merely in words.
For example, what exactly do you mean by ‘I also need to add a formula’? How exactly? How does the 2nd formula interact with the first one?
Please start a topic on our forum and attach your workbook with sample data and expected results from that data.

Is there a different formula to do the same. So I want to check cell D19 what ever the number in that cell return the same value in that numbers column.
Catalin Bombea
Hi Corr,
Try:
=INDEX(Inverter!$C3:$J3,MATCH(Inverter!D$19,Inverter!$C2:$J2,0))
The formula will search the D19 value into Inverter!$C2:$J2 range and will return the values from Inverter!$C3:$J3 range, you will have to organize your data this way.

Good day.
I have a start date and a estimated end date. (normally 3 years plus from actual start date). I have an additional cell that needs to have 1st, 2nd and 3rd which is supposed to update automatically linked to a today date.
=IFS(TODAY()>=EDATE(L2;24);”3rd”;TODAY()=EDATE(L2;12);”2nd”;TRUE;”1st”)
Actual Starting Date Estimated Completion Date (Trade Test) Progression (1st / 2nd / 3rd)
2019/01/07 2021/01/07 1st
The problem is that the formula does not calculate the 2nd.
Actual Starting Date Estimated Completion Date (Trade Test) Progression (1st / 2nd / 3rd)
2019/01/07 2021/01/07 1st should have been a 2nd year based on formula. Anniversary date2020/02/07 = 2nd and 2021/02/07 = 3rd
Catalin Bombea
Hi Gerhard,
The order of the arguments is important. Also, EDATE returns a date that is exactly 12 or 24 months after start date, so EDATE(DATEVALUE(“2019/01/07”),12) returns 2020/01/07, if you compare it with TODAY(), only in a very specific start day-today combination the logical test will be true, I guess you have to review the logical test as well.

Hi,
Please help me to correct my farmula for incentive sheet
=IF(F5105%,H10, )
The formula shown Result is #Value!
Philip Treacy
Hi Faisal,
I don’t know what you want to do with the formula so I’m guessing to give you an answer.
It looks like you are testing the value if F5 to see if it is 105% of something.
If this is true then you’ve written that the answer will be the value in H10. You then have a comma but haven’t specified an answer if F5 is not 105% of something.
Really, everything you need to fix this is already in this article.
But, if you have a value in A1 then you could write this
=IF(F5=A1*1.05,H10)
which omits a value if the test is false, in which case the answer will be the Boolean value False.
You could also explicitly specify a value for the false result like this
=IF(F5=A1*1.05,H10,A2)

I don’t understand you reply only in indirect way that pretend you cannot give answer
Mynda Treacy
Without seeing your data it is too hard to write an answer that will be accurate. You will then reply asking for modifications so if we can see your data all of that can be avoided.
So, if you can start a topic on the forum and attach your workbook that will help us help you.
We also need a clear explanation of what the inputs are and what the expected outputs are. As it is what you have already stated is not clear enough.

Try a simple index match version:

A. B. C. D. E.
1. 20. 30. 40 50. 60.
2. 59. 62. 79. 80. 81
3. 78. 98. 108. 118. 128
If someone has a salary let’s say 30(B1) and our promotion process is 2 steps front {50}and the move one grade down to closest number 59(a2).

garry edmunds
Found the problem and it works great! Thanks Mynda you are the best!!
I realized I need a new step in the formula and wonder if it may be possible to do.
with the same formula and if A1 was cat could I add the number in E1, and if A1 was dog could I subtract the number in E1?
Mynda Treacy
Yes, just modify the formula in the ‘value if true’ argument.
Garry
thanks for the quick reply
so would the formula would be =if(A1=”cat”,C1-D1+E1,if(A1=”dog”,D1-C1-E1,0))
or would it be different?
Mynda Treacy
Probably. If it doesn’t give you the result you want, then modify the formula. You can always create the formula in another cell and when it’s working as desired, copy that formula into the value_if_true argument of the IF formula.
Garry
I have been racking my brain on how to write a formula for this.
in cell F:1 if A:1 = “cat” then sum C:1- D:1, or if A:1 = “dog” then sum D:1-C:1
This is probably a simple formula but I am having a hard time figuring it out.
Thanks
Mynda Treacy
Hi Garry,
Mynda
Garry
Thanks for responding, but when I use that formula I get an error that says I have entered too many arguments for this function and doesn’t give me the results I need.
Garry
also I don’t want a value of 0 returned if false, i wanted the sum of if first statement is met to be c1-d1, or if second statement is met the sum d1-c1, i don’t need the word “false” to show up in the cell
Mynda Treacy
Sorry, Garry. Parenthesis in the wrong place. Try this:
=IF(A1=”Cat”,C1-D1,IF(A1=”Dog”,D1-C1,0))
Replace the zero with whatever you want to show up in the case that cell A1 doesn’t contain Cat or Dog.
Mynda
Garry
Thanks for the correction, it got rid of the error but it still isn’t giving me what I need. f1 just gives me a 0 no matter what is in A1.
I am probably not explaining it clearly so I will try to explain it one more time. In the cell f1 I would like a calculated numerical value if A1 has the word cat in the cell I would like the sum for c1-d1 but if A1 has the word dog in the cell I would like the sum for d1-c1.
Example: A1 will either have the word cat or dog in it and nothing else, so if c1 has the number 50 and d1 has the number 45 I would need: if cat then subtract 50 – 45 = 5 or if dog subtract 45 – 50 = -5
The formula as written, regardless if it has cat or dog in A1 always comes back 0 which isn’t correct.
I hope this makes sense. Thanks
Mynda Treacy
I tested the formula using the criteria you provided and it works for me. I wonder if cell A1 doesn’t just contain the word ‘Dog’ or ‘Cat’ but perhaps this word is one of many text characters in the cell. Have you checked to make sure there isn’t a space after Dog or Cat e.g. ‘Dog ‘ These spaces are not visible on the face of the cell. You need to edit it and see where the cursor stops. If that’s not it, please post your question on our Excel forum where you can upload a sample Excel file and we can troubleshoot further.

How do I enter an IF,OR function to find out if D2 is greater than or less than 2 or G2 is “yes” or “no”
Philip Treacy
Hi Hailey,
Did you give t a try yourself?
Here’s the formula
=IF(OR(D2<>2,G2=”yes”,G2=”no”),TRUE,FALSE)
So if D2 is not equal to 2 or G2 contains either yes or no, you’ll get the result TRUE, otherwise the result is FALSE.

Sol Wize
Hi,
I’m trying to fill a cell value based on whether another cell has any value whatsoever. So if value of Cell A2 is ABC, Cell E2 should have value 1.
I use the value in E2 to sum up the total.
Now the problem I face is that although I’m getting the Value 1 in E2 using IF function. The data is not considered numeric & the sum is always zero.
But if I manually enter 1 in each cell, it is ok. Kindly help.
I’m using the below formula:
=IF(([@BARCODE]>1),”1″)
Here barcode is the name of the field.

Hi Sol,
Whatever you put between double quotes will be text.

Regards,
Waseem.Nm
Mynda Treacy
Hi Waseem,
In English your formula says:
If the contents of cell E3 is “above” then F3 equals D3 otherwise blank.
In other words, if E3 contains “above” then Excel tests to see if F3 equals D3, if it does then it returns TRUE, if it doesn’t then it returns FALSE. I suspect you want something else in this argument.

Formulas can’t delete values from cells. Only VBA can do that. The best you can do is have the formula return a blank e.g.

I have a workbook with Sheet 1 and Sheet 2. In Sheet 1 colume B, each cell (going down the colume) has a number in it from 1.0-9.23. Each number has a matching statement of meaning. The numbers and their matching meaning are listed in Sheet 2 in columes A and B (A has the number, B has the definitions).
In sheet 1 colume B, when every a number is entered from 1.0-9.23, I want it to pull the matching defintion in the cell from Sheet 2 colume B. Can I do that?

Sure, you can try a simple INDEX-MATCH combination in cell C2 of Sheet1:

Mynda Treacy
Hi Kay,
It looks like you’re testing numbers, but returning text because all of your ‘value_if_true’ arguments are surrounded in double quotes. If you want numbers returned then you don’t need double quotes. Double quotes are only for text.
That said, you should use this VLOOKUP on a sorted list technique for formulas like that.

I am in need of a nested formula that would allow for the following in one cell:

A Low Low Low Moderate High
B Low Low Moderate High Unacceptable
C Low Moderate Moderate High Unacceptable

Catalin Bombea
You can try an INDEX MATCH formula:
Assuming that you have that table f values in a sheet named Sheet2, with I,II,III,IV, V in cells B1:F1, and A,B,C,D,E in cells A2:A6, try:
=INDEX(Sheet2!A1:F6,MATCH(A2,Sheet2!A1:A6,0),MATCH(B2,Sheet2!A1:F1,0))

Please help. how can I get Cell A1 to auto update with values from the information in the cells below the dates, on a daily basis?
Eg. Cell A1 = -1,26% (currently ties up with 02-Oct)
01-Oct / 02-Oct / 03-Oct / 04-Oct
6,56% /-1,26% /-1,63% / 0,00%
Cell A1 should now have -1.63% (should tie up with 03-Oct) and update daily thereafter with the value for that day.
Catalin Bombea
in A1 you should have:
=INDEX(A3:AA3,MATCH(TODAY(),A2:AA2,0))
In row 2 you should have dates, not dates in text format.

Total Days Income Expenses Remained Days remaining per day exp Days can spend
31 2000 200 1800 20 500
i want formula for how many days i can spend by per day 500 in remaining cash
Philip Treacy
Hi,
This isn’t clear to me.
If you have 200 income and 200 expenses then your remaining cash is 1800.
Where did you get 500 from?
Is 20 the number of days you want to split the 500 over? If so you just need 500/20?
You can get a whole number of days by using
=ROUNDDOWN(500/20,0)

Hi Val,
I’m assuming there is only one salary listed per person, so you can’t find the average of a single salary therefore it must be the average of ‘everyone’s salary’, as stated in the question.

I am getting FALSE on .89, .90, 1.09 and 1.10 but everything else is assigned the correct 1,2 or 3. Example: .88 is coming back with 1 but not .89 is coming back as false and should be 1.

Without knowing what your desired result is I can’t be sure how to fix the function, but this is valid syntax, although logically it will always be False as you have two tests for A2 to be equal to a value.

Please note that if A2 is empty, 0 or negative, this will return a result of 2. This shouldn’t be the default answer but the AND condition makes it that way.
Either make sure A2 has a value inside your ranges, or include another IF to prevent erroneous output:
=IF(OR(A2<0,A2=0,A2=""),"",IF(AND(A2>0,A2<=0.89),1,IF(A2<=0.9,2,3)))
This will return an empty string “” if A2 is negative, 0 or empty.

Hi Sanchez again,
Thank you but the COUNT will just work for one department. I have multiple departments so would essentially need a formula to look at department and whether FTE or PT then grab number of positions and sum them.
Department FTE/PT # of Positions Available
HR FTE 1
HR FTE 1
HR FTE 1
HR PT 1
HR PT 1
IT FTE 2
IT PT 1
IT PT 1
Finance FTE 20
Finance FTE 3
Finance PT 2
Finance PT 1
Customer Support FTE 10
Customer Support PT 1
Customer SUpport PF 1
Catalin Bombea
Try:
=SUMPRODUCT((A$1:A$10=A1)*(B$1:B$10=B1)*(C$1:C$10))
Nora
IF CELL A1 =Jennifer then value will be 2000 please help me generate a formular for this
Catalin Bombea
Hi Nora,
=IF(A1=”Jennifer”,2000,0)
Sanchez
Department FTE/PT # of Positions Available
HR FTE 1
HR FTE 1
HR FTE 1
HR PT 1
HR PT 1
Jan
FTE
PT
Can you please help me with a formula to group and sum FTE and PT? Please use example above. The formula should be something like IF department is “FTE” = 3 and IF department is “PT”=2. Thank you!
Catalin Bombea
Hi Sanchez,
The easiest way is to add a pivot table: select the data range, from ribbon-Insert-Pivot Table-New Worksheet, then from the list of headers add the department to the row section, and the same department to the values section.
Or use: =COUNTIF(A1:A10,”FTE”)

Hello, i am running some assessments with various criteria to be met by candidates who are scored. Is there a way i can show their total score against a pre-populated “maximum possible”? So:
A B C D E Total
1. John 3 3 2 3 2 13/20 (or 13 out of 20)
2. Sue /20
3. Paul Out of 20
4. Chris
5. Abby
So the words “out of ‘total'” (or number equivalent) are already in col. F, but column F would also have a formula that calculates the candidates score and then puts the 2 together. I know we could simply write the words out of 20 in the column F header, but there are reasons (long, boring ones) why it has to be done this way
Thanks in advance
Marc
Catalin Bombea
Just use:
=SUM(B2:F2)&”/20″
A percentage will be relevant too, 100% means 20/20:
=SUM(B2:F2)/20 (format the cell as percentage)
Crispin
You guys are good
Mynda Treacy
🙂 thanks, Crispin! Glad we can help.
Robert
HI!
I am making a calculator which multiplies a value by a percentage. in some cases, we need to enter the word “Special” instead of the calculation.
Obviously I am getting the #Value! error.
I am not sure if this is correct:
=IF(OR(D4*I8), “SPECIAL”)
so I want it to enter the total of the multipliaction from D4*I18 in cell D13, or if the cell has the word “Special” in it, I want it to show Special in D13 instead.
Mynda Treacy
Hi Robert,
Assuming D13 is the cell that you want to test to see if it contains the word ‘Special’:
In English the formula reads:
IF D13 contains the word ‘special’, then return ‘special’, otherwise C4*I8.

I need help with this formula, I have a multi worksheet workbook, in the summary worksheet I need the cell to just return a yes if there is text or a number in the other worksheet cell and a no if there if the cell is a blank on the other worksheet. I tired this. =IF(ISTEXT(vlookup(A7,’csa’!$A:$AC,14,False),”YES”, IF(ISNUMBER(vlookup(A7,’csa’!$A:$AC,14,FALSE)), “YES”, IF(ISBLANK(vlookup(A7,’csa’!$A:$AC,14,FALSE), “NO”, “”))) but it is too many arguments
Catalin Bombea
Hi Sabrina,
You are missing some paranthesis(after FALSE, there should be 2 closing paranthesis):
=IF(ISTEXT(vlookup(A7,'csa'!$A:$AC,14,False) ) ,"YES", IF(ISNUMBER(vlookup(A7,'csa'!$A:$AC,14,FALSE)), "YES", IF(ISBLANK(vlookup(A7,'csa'!$A:$AC,14,FALSE) ) , "NO", "")))

How do I write a formula IF cell A1= <4 then value will be a defined number…say 69?
Mynda Treacy
Hi Sha,
The formula above reads; if cell A1 is less than or equal to 4 then return 69, otherwise return 0.
Mynda
sha
Perfect.
What if there are more than one criteria? If cell A1 is less than 4 then return 69 or if cell A1 is between 5-9 then the return is 79?
Thank you
Mynda Treacy
Then you should use VLOOKUP on a sorted list like this.

Hi, what would be the formular to access the first 1000 from 20000, second 1000 from the 20000 and so on
Catalin Bombea
Hi,
Try this one:
OFFSET($K$1:$K$1000000, (ROW(A1)-1)*1000,0,1000)
In the first cell, this formula will return a range with first 1000 cells. If you copy this down, the second cell will have the second 1000 items, and so on. Use SUM, COUNT or your desired function with this range.

I am wanting to group employees into 3 categories (good, better,best) based off of their yearly averages but I was wanting that to auto populate. So if there yearly average false into a range (10-15%) they are good is there a formula for that. It’s seems as thought the if and works but would be very complicated seeing that it’s 3 categores
Philip Treacy
Hi Shae,
Yes this can be done. You haven’t specified the ranges for each of the 3 categories so it’s hard to give you a solution without all the information.
Can you please open a topic on our forum and supply a workbook with the data needed to provide you an answer.

In a measured audit the auditor can give a 1,2,3,4 or 5 score. I want to transfer these to 0,25%,50%,75% and 100% respectively in the final sheet. Is there a formulae for this?
Mynda Treacy
Hi Harry,
If you have Office 365 you can use the SWITCH function. Otherwise, you’d have to write an IF function for each score.
Mynda
Catalin Bombea
Hi Harry,
You can try this:
=INDEX({0,0.25,0.5,0.75,1},Score)
Replace Score with a cell reference where you have that value.

I would like to highlight a row of cells if 3 or more cells in the row meet the criteria – is there a way to do this please? Alternatively, if a rule could be created to put a word in a cell if three or cells in a row meet the criteria then I could use auto formatting to highlight those rows. The difficulty I am having is trying to identify those with 3 or more (out of a maximum of 9) meet the criteria. Any help would be much appreciated.
Mynda Treacy
Hi Elizabeth,
You can use conditional formatting to highlight the row, as explained here. If you get stuck please post your question and sample Excel file on our forum where we can give you a specific answer.

Rachel Vickers
Hiya. I have a list of cost types. If the cost type is Staff Costs, I need to be able to take the value of that staff cost (appears in another cell), find 15 percent of it, and detail what that is in another cell. I’ve got to that point, but it’s taking the value of costs from rows detailing other cost types, which means when I total it in ANOTHER column, it’s adding double.
I don’t know if that makes sense!
But this is what i have so far:
=IF(C4=”Staff costs (direct and external)”,M4 *0.15,M4)
But when I then sum this, as I said, the cells that dont have staff costs as the type are still pulling through, so any total is including this. How do I negate anything BUT staff costs (direct and external) in this formula.
ANY HELP much appreciated! Thank you

Hi Phil,
I’d need your advice on the following:
I currently have 2 columns of value – Column A and Column B. However, there are some “0” value and or “*KEY_ERR” in Column A.
I’m hoping for Column C to pick values in Column A as priority. However, if Column A has “0” or “*KEY_ERR” value, I’d then want Column C to pick the values in Column B. I was able to get the formula to work in Column C if Column A value is “0” but I’m not able to get the formula to work to reflect Column B’s value if Column A value is “*KEY_ERR” at the same time.
Could you advise? Thanks in advance!

Hi Elly,
In Col C you want this
=IF(OR(A1=0,A1=”KEY_ERR”),B1,A1)

I tried to post a comment, but not sure if it went through.
I am trying to use an if then statement to get a date in column A to show up in COlumn B as just the month (but i am using it in a pivot table so it has to not be a date that is just formatted to show up as a month).
so i need if A2 contains or starts with January or 1, then return January in B2. eg. A2 is 1/2/19 and i want B2 to say Jan but as text.
dont know if you can help or not!

Hi there,
I need help with a simple formula in excel.
I’m creating a table for Debts.
So the actual sheet are consists of cells namely –Amount I owe– then several cells for –Payment– then a cell for the –Remaining Balance–.
The scenario is, if I owe 2000 then I wasn’t able to pay full but I only pay it for like 1000 then next time 500 then lastly 500.
So what could be the right formula for this matter.
Can you please help me if how the formula should be?
Hoping for your kind answers.

Im doing a computation of tax. Here’s the scenario, for the Tax Exempt, the limit is 90,000.00.
What formula will I use if the total tax exempt not exceed 90,000 then there should be an excess amount, but if the total tax exempt exceeds 90,000 it should be zero.
Please correct this formula
=IF(D3>1,”Copy the number in D3″, “0”

I am really new to excel and not too sure what formula to use.
Basically what I am trying to do is, if the value in B5 = 5 units, then for every 5 units that must equal to 15 points.
E.g. For every 5 units sold, that will then equal to 15 points
Not sure if this makes sense
Philip Treacy
Hi Jason,
I’m not entirely clear. Is what you are trying to say that for every 5 units sold, you get 15 points? So 10 units = 30 points etc?
If so you can use this =FLOOR(A1,5)/5*15
You can read up on FLOOR and CEILING

Steve Loveland
Hi all,
I am looking for a variation of what is proposed here. I am looking to autopopulate a list that goes something like this…
IF Cell A1 = x AND Cell B1 = y THEN C1 = z
where x is a service; y is a supplier and z is a shortcode.
While the formula is quite simple, I have 190 conditions! I am not sure if there is a better approach to this. I’m not sure if reading an array is the right approach.
Ideally, I will ‘teach’ the worksheet the codes for each service and supplier and run a macro or piece of VBA code over the list for the first two columns.
Is this the most useful approach? Should I be using VBA for this?

Hi Steve,

CAN YOU USE AN IF STATMENT AND ALLOW FOR USER INPUT IN THE SAME CELL? I WANT TO USE AN IF STATMENT TO REFERENCE ANOTHER CELL; IF IT IS TRUE IT WILL ALLOW THE USER TO ENTER A NUMBER IN THE ACTIVE CELL AND IF FALSE IT WILL RETURN A STRING.
E.G. =IF(B5=”FIG #2″, USER INPUT, “N/A”) THIS WOULD BE TYPED INTO CELL C5 FOR EXAMPLE

Philip Treacy
Hi Fabio,
You’ve specified ranges of values where you have a specific result, but not specified what happens if the value is in between those ranges.
For example, what is the result if the value in G32 is 13.5? Or 17.5, 18.5 etc?
You can use this formula and adjust as needed
=IF(AND(G32>=6,G32<=13),"ATHLETIC",IF(AND(G32>=14,G32<=17),"FIT",IF(AND(G32>=18,G32<=24),"AVERAGE",IF(G32>=25,”OBESE”,””))))

If one sales man sales more than 75% of his target than 1% of sales amount and if sales was more than 100% than 2% or if sales was less than 75% than incentive will be “0”
Example
Sales Amount Target Achievement Incentive Amount
1130 1500 75% 1% ? (Need formula)

I have two sheets in an excel workbook. I need Sheet 2 to show the whole row 3 of Sheet 1 if the value in column 1 of Sheet 1 is 56
Philip Treacy
Hi Michael,
Do you really need to copy the entire row or can you limit it to certain cells? It would be better to limit it.
You also don’t say which cell in Col1 is 56, so I am working with A1
Try this on Sheet2 in A1 which will copy A3:Z3 from Sheet1. =IF(Sheet1!A1=56,Sheet1!A3:Z3,””) and you will need to enter this as an array formula by using CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER

Sheet 1 has rows of data on individuals. One cell value in the row determines if the entire row is copied from sheet 1 to sheet 2. Example: if K2 = 1 in sheet 1, all of row 2 (A through M) needs to transfer to sheet 2 automatically.
Philip Treacy
Hi Ron,
On Sheet2 in A1 you can enter =IF(Sheet1!K2=1,Sheet1!A2:M2,””) but you will need to enter this as an array formula by using CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER

Hello,
I am in need of a formula to find duplicates in 2 columns.
For e.g.
cell A1: 123 & cell B1: 1
cell A2: 345 & cell B2: 0
cell A3: 123 & cell B3: 1
cell A4: 123 & cell B4: 2
I need to identify that A1,B1 & A3,B3 are a duplicate.
Meanwhile A2,B2 & A4,B4 are not duplicate.

Hi Rena,
Add a helper column with those 2 columns joined: =A1&B1
Then, in another column, just count how many times the current row values appear in the helper column:
=Countif(C1:C10,A1&B1)

Thank you so much for explaining all this. But i’m still a bit lost with this. I’m trying to add in a lunch break time in the formula below – if the total hours are over 6.
IF(OR(ISBLANK(C2),ISBLANK(D2)),DURATION(0),D2−C2)
Employee Date In Out Break Hours
Benji 12/18/18 12:00 PM 6:00 PM :30 6
Catalin Bombea
Hi Benjamin,
You are mixing time and decimal values. Keep in mind that the numeric value of 1 day is.. 1, that means 6 hours cannot be used as is, the unit of measure should be consistent. Therefore, 6 hours will be correctly represented by =6/24, because hours are just fractions of a day (6 hours=6/24=1/4=0.25= 1 quarter of a day).
On the other side, whenever you see a time format in a cell, 12:00 PM for example, keep in mind that it’s just a formatted value, the number in that cell cannot be over 1 unit, in this case 12:00 PM will be 0.5 decimal units. Just change the format of that cell to Number, and you will see the real value excel is using in calculations.
In your example, 6:00 PM – 12:00 PM will be 0.75-0.5=0.25. A lunch break of 30 minutes will be expressed as: 0.5/24, this is the value you need to add to your calculations.

I am trying to get my formula to return a certain dollar amount based on the number entered and where it falls related to the goal. There are 3 levels, therefor 3 tier payouts possible.

Mynda Treacy
Hi Deb,
The formula looks ok except it has two too many closing parentheses.
I suspect that one of the first two conditions is being met and so the third condition E5=C5 isn’t getting an opportunity to evaluate. It’s difficult to say much more without seeing your file.

I am trying to find a formula and am looking for some help. I have a spreadsheet of different grants that were put into a home. For some of the overall project dollars, the acquisition price of the home is counted and for others it is not. For example
House 1= grant $25000, owner contribution $25,000, acquisition $10,000, we are NOT counting acquisition.
House 2= grant $25,000, owner contribution $30,000, acquisition $40,000, we ARE counting acquisition.
Right now I have a Yes or No under column G for whether we are counting or not. How do I get a formula to automatically count the E column (acquisition cost), if G is Yes and not count it if G is No.
Philip Treacy
Hi Danielle,
When you say you want to ‘count’ the value in the E column, it’s not clear what you are doing with that value. But I can still write something that you can start with.
If your formula is in H1 then you could use something like
=IF(G1=”Yes”,E1+YourCalc,YourCalc)
Where I have written YourCalc is where you need to insert your calculation for whatever you are trying to calculate. Please note I have just added the value in E1 to YourCalc if G1 is “Yes”. You’ll need to incorporate E1 into your calculation in the way that is correct for you.

Hi Catalin
I am not very good with Excel and formulas and I presume what I want to do can be done, I am just not sure how and what the formula might be.
In the first line I have headers There are 20 in total, but only 11 of these are colour coded. I was able to search how to add a “check box” and put these into the 10 spaces to show a different stage of progress, and when one of these boxes are checked there is the 11 cell that I would like to show as the “Status, so for each line in the status column and be the same colour as the checked tab. If I were to write the code it might look like this (remember I suck at code writing)
=D(COUNTSIF($E:$N)BOX MARKED IS CHECKED), COLOUR FILL WOULD = D
I am hoping to capture multiple lines, based on a line by line series
Catalin Bombea
Hi Phil,

I need help to try and figure out a formula for a template I am working on. I am going to insert 10 “check Boxes” each with a colour code, when any of these boxes is checked, I want another cell in the line to change to the same colour as the checked box. It is meant for production and to signify each stage of that production so at a quick glance I can see what the “status” is and for argument sake let’s say column D is the status cell, and from E to N are the progress steps each with its own colour code. When one of these 10 columns is checked, I want the D cell to change to that colour, for every row item (and there could be hundreds), in any line there should be only two colours highlighted, The D and one of the E-N both with the same colour code. Does this make sense? It would be easier to show a chart I think
Catalin Bombea
hi Phil,
Each check box can be linked to a cell at your choice, right click the check box and select Format Control, in Control tab select a linked cell. In your formulas, you can refer to the linked cell to display colours as needed.

How do I do a calculation example. my answer is 49 then the IF statement says less than 50 and if my answer is 51 it says greater than 50 but now i also want a statement to say if it is between lets say 50 and 70 i want it to say between 50 and 70.
Catalin Bombea
Hi,
Try this formula:
=INDEX({“Less than 50″,”between 50 and 70″,”greater than 70”},MATCH(A1,{0,50,70},1))
In cell A1 (change as needed), you should have those values: 49, or 51 that must be evaluated by the formula.

If Cell A is >= 9 AND Cell B is => 9 then Cell C = YES and both Cell A and B must have a number 9 or more. i am trying and it is allowing a blank cell B to still but a Yes in cell C
=IF(AND(a>=9,b>=9), “Yes”,” “)
Philip Treacy
Hi Beth,
You need to specify specific cells, not just ‘a’ or ‘b’
=IF(AND(A1>=9,B1>=9),”Yes”,””)

Hi,
I am trying to calculate P=P1XP2 (Column K4) but I am finding errors.
P1=Improbable (Column G4), P2=Unlikely (Column J4)
I want P= Improbable
Thanks,
Philip Treacy
Sorry Wisk without seeing your data it isn’t clear how to calculate what you want. If you are trying to calculate P1 * P2 then isn’t it just P1 * P2?
Please open a post on the forum and attach your workbook.

Lea
Hi, may i asked you what is the meaning of this formula?
=IF(F3-5>0,(F3-5)*30+5*15,F3*15)
Philip Treacy
Hi Lea,
If you break it down into its parts it’s quite straightforward.
The syntax for IF is
=IF( TEST, Value if True, Value if False)
TEST = F3-5 > 0 in other words is F3-5 > 0 ?
Value if TEST is True = (F3-5) * 30 + 5 * 15
Value if TEST is False = F3 * 15
So if we have the number 10 in cell F3 and the formula evaluates to
=IF (10-5>0 , (10-5)*30+5*15, 10*15)
well 10-5 = 5 which is greater than 0 so this test result is TRUE which means the IF formula gives you the answer
(10-5)*30+5*15 = 225

Dear.
First for sorry.I can not explain to you. for Example 20,25,33,40,42,45,48,50 under fifty 10%
and 60,62,65……..100.105…..150 more of 5%
10=10%
20=10%
30=10%
35=10%
50=10%
51=5%
55=5%
58=5%
60=5%
70=5%
100=5%
150=5% etc.
condition of under 50 all sales of customer commission
for sales man 10% amount ,and up to 51 ,55,60,70,78,95,100,110 more,more
of 5% .
Philip Treacy
Hi Masum,
So what I think you are trying to do is calculate commission. 10% for values < 50 and 5% for values greater than fifty. Assuming values can't be less than 0, and the sales amount is in A1 =IF(A1<50,A1*0.1,A1*0.05) Regards Phil
Sanjay Gundlavkar
Can Anyone rectify my below formula.
Instead of Result, it shows me as #VALUE!
=IF(K3=0,”Nil”,TODAY()-C3)*AND(IF(K3>0,”Excess”,TODAY()-C3))*AND(IF(K3<0,TODAY()-C3,"Bal"))
Philip Treacy
Hi Sanjay,
With 0 in all the specified cells, you are multiplying a string (from the IF) with a Boolean result (from the AND) and you get #VALUE!
The use of IF inside AND isn’t correct either.
If you specify what you are trying to do and the expected result it’ll be easier to help you.
It looks like you are trying to say
IF K3 = 0 then the result is “Nil”
IF K3 > 0 then the result is “Excess”
IF K3 < 0 then the result is "Bal" I'm not sure where the TODAY() fits in. When asking questions like this please ALWAYS provide the source data otherwise we are guessing. You can start a post on the forum and attach your workbook to that. Regards Phil

I am trying to copy a row of data from “PP Part 1” Tab (worksheet) to “SharePoint” Tab (worksheet) if AJ# <= 2. I want the formula to skip the copy if AJ# is not <= 2 and then evaluate the next row to see if it should copy without leaving blank lines on the "SharePoint" Tab (worksheet). # is equal to row number.
Basically "SharePoint" Tab (worksheet) should just be a list of all rows where AJ# <= 2.

If you want to extract a set of values that match a criteria then I’d use a PivotTable with a filter for values AJ# <=2. If you need help setting it up, please post your question and sample Excel file on our forum where we can help you further.

Hi there,
I am trying to have a cell automatically fill in a choice of two phrases depending on what the value is in another field.
So, here is what I am trying to achieve:
if P10 = Yes, then I want S10 to say “Required” as well as
if P10 = No or Unsure, then I want S10 to say “check requirements with provider”
Catalin Bombea
Try this formula:
=If(P10=”Yes”,”Required”,”check requirements with provider”)
For any value other than Yes, the formula will return “check requirements”
If you want those strict cases -No,Unsure, try this:
=If(P10=”Yes”,”Required”,If(OR(P10=”No”,P10=”Unsure”),”check requirements with provider”),”Other case”)

to put it simply what is the total number of occurrences in the last 90 days

I have to calculate who is L1 from three columns also if any duplicate values are there then the result should show FALSE
e.g.
Column A Column B Column C Result: FALSE
1 2 2
Column A Column B Column C Result: Column A
1 2 3
Catalin Bombea
Hi Kamlesh,
Question is: what L1 means for you? The smallest value?
Try this formula:
=IF(SUMPRODUCT(COUNTIF(A1:C1,A1:C1)*1)>3,FALSE,SUMPRODUCT((A1:C1=MIN(A1:C1))*COLUMN(A1:C1)))
It will return the column number of the smallest value.

Hi Shelley,
It’s not really clear what you want. I don’t know what formula you want in other cells. What $10 difference? Are you adding/subtracting 10 from a total somewhere? In which case wouldn’t you just use -10 or + 10?
Maybe if you open a forum post and supply some sample data in a workbook it will be clearer.

One thing I don’t get is that you say the value in C2 changes various other cells, but how do you want it to change these cells? Where does IF fit into this situation? Haven’t you already written the formulae that determine the value of C7:C20, C23:C30 etc?

Im in this situation when i need to know when someone made a modification in the spreadsheet, meaning i need the date when the cell containment has been change.
I was trying with =IF(D2=”yes”, today()) … but is not working as in refreshing the date every time i open the spreadsheet.
And once i find the working formula, i would love to block it so no one could delete it or anything like that.
its for having control of the picking dates for specific parts.
Thank you so much!

I need help again. I’m stuck again it seems so easy. If and And formula. If sales are greater than 20,000 and have submitted a report (columns say yes or no) than they get 5000 dollars bonus if not 0.
Philip Treacy
Hi Toni,
Try understanding each function on its own before combining them.
So if Sales > 20000 then a bonus of 5000 is awarded. Otherwise 0 bonus. Assuming the value for Sales is in A1, the IF for this is
=IF(A1>20000,5000,0)
Looking at AND, it returns True or False. It returns True if the conditions you give it are both True, otherwise you get False. So, with either a yes or no in B1 you would write your AND like this
=AND(A1>20000, B1=”yes”)
This will give you True if both A1 is greater than 20000 AND B1 contains the text “yes”
Now all you have to do is insert that AND into the IF we wrote earlier
=IF(A1>20000,5000,0)
becomes
=IF(AND(A1>20000, B1=”yes”),5000,0)
Please note that checking for text like this is not case sensitive. “yes” is the same as “Yes” or “YES”.

I’d use another cell to store the threshold value of 30000 though, so it’s easier to adjust as needed. Assuming you store the value 30000 in D1 this would give you

Hello I need help making a formula for an Date Tracker. Essentially what I want to do is this:
Say:

C= Color Red, Green, or Yellow.
Then I want a formula for multiple days that says, B is 365 days (or a year) passed A, then C will be red. Then if B is within 60 Days of 365 Days of B, then C will be yellow. Then if B is not passed 365 or within 60 days of 365 for A then C will be Green.
I wanted if the date is overdue a year to go red, within 60 days of that year to be yellow, and if they are not meeting those two then they are green

Hi AJ,
Assuming that column C will contain the number of days between column B and column A, select the range from column C and insert a conditional formatting rule (Home tab, Styles section, Conditional Formatting – choose Icon Sets, any icon set you like.). In the next window, you will need to press the button Reverse Icon Order, they usually start with green, in your case must start with red.
The rules should be set as follows:
Red: when value is >= 365, type Number
Yellow: when < 365 and >= 60, type Number
Green: when <60

Hi, i have a sheet with a column (Q) thats adding with the basic sum formula. =Sum(K3+Q2) and it goes down in same column with same formula no more than 110 rows per sheet.
i made another column (R) and i want to use the =if(or formula. and im stuck.. i made another Column (Y) with starting value of 120 going down the column from Row2 down to Row 23. the are in increments of 120. so starts at 120 in Y2 end at 2640 Y23.
this is what i need help with. I would enter the formula in R3. If the value of Q3 is equal or greater than 120 but equal or less than 240, then Subtract Q3 – 120 , Or if its equal or greater than 241 but Equal or less than 360, then subtract Q3-240. or if its none add Q2+k3
and i would continue the formula until i reach 2640. Column Y signifies Hours and column Q as well

I am data in having 6 columns and many rows. I want to check if the date (column B) is less than today, then highlight the row. Rows will be getting updating.
I am using conditional formatting with formula =$B2<TODAY() to highlight the rows (A2:F2000). This is working but this is highlighting empty rows also. How to avoid highlighting the empty rows?
Catalin Bombea
Just add another condition, B2 should not be empty:
=AND($B2<>“”,$B2

This one doing my head in. I am sure its simple
For 1 – 50 widgets you buy you get 20 wingdings for free.
however for every additional widgets above 50 (to next 50) , you get an additional 5 wingdings and so on
so buy 49 widgets get 20 wingdings
buy between 51 and 100 widgets you get 25 windings
buy between 101 and 150 you get 30 wingdings, 151 – 200 widgets, 35 wingdings and so on.
Catalin Bombea
Hi Andy,
Yes, it’s simple, try this one:
=IF(A1<=0,0,20)+INT(A1/50)*5
Andrew McIntosh
Slight modification on the above;
Less than or equal to 600 widgets you get 0 wingdings
= to and above 651 you get 30 wingdings
than for every additional 50 widgets you get 2 wingdings
eg 651 widgets get 30 wingdings
704 widgets get 32 wingdings
810 widget get 36 windings
Thanks
Philip Treacy
Hi Andrew,
You don’t say what to do if the number is between 600 and 651?
Otherwise, you can use this
=IF(A1>=651,30+(INT((A1-650)/50)*2),0)

Pulitzer Photography pays young people to approach people in major department stores and offer them a free photograph if they come in to have their portrait taken.
They are paid $50, plus a commission of 2% of any sales of additional photos to the client up to $100, 5% of additional sales above $100 to $200, and 10% of additional sales above $200.

I have an issue.
I am setting up a chart based on units of run time for when it is due for a service and the cost. The example I have is:
0-2000 – cost $600 to maintenance
2001-4000 Cost $1750 maintenance and service
4001-6000 Cost $600 maintenance
I have the data as
C D E
1 0 2000 600
2 2001 4000 1750
3 4001 6000 600
Entry is:
A1 = 689 B1 =vlookup( A1,C1:E3,3,True) This displays the 600 total – all good
A2= 1378 B2 =vlookup( A2,C1:E3,3,True) This displays the 600 total – all good
A3= 2067 B3 =vlookup( A3,C1:E3,3,True) This displays the 1750 total – all good
A4= 2755 B4 =vlookup( A4,C1:E3,3,True) This displays the 1750 total – here is where I need help. How can I get it reconize that it had service at the 2067 mark and cost would go back to 600?
Can this be done or do I need to set it up differently?
Catalin Bombea
Hi Mark,
A4-2755 fits in the 4000-6000 range, with 600 cost, same as A3-2067, why are you saying that one should be 1750 and the other 600?
=INDEX({0,600,1750,600},MATCH(A1,{0,2001,4001,6001},1)) should give you the correct values.
Mark
Thank you!
I am saying that when the run time for the machine hits say 2001, there will be additional maintenance needed, but there isn’t additional maintenance needed until 6001 so the cost would go down to 600 for routine upkeep. I wanted a way that once it used the 1750 value it could go to the next cost which would be 600… if that makes sense.
Catalin Bombea
So between 2001 and 6001 there is no additional cost? What’s the 4001 limit for then?
I think you should provide a sample file with manual results, to clarify the problem, at this point it’s not very clear.

Hi,
Great article. I have a question. I have =A5-B5 cell to get C5 Value. But if I have no value in say B5, in C5 cell, I get 1. E.g A5=1, B5=0 , i get 1 in C5.
How do I write an IF statement to Say “none” in C5. If A5 has value and B5 has no value. say 1 – 0 = none.
Thanks

Hi Tonia,
Try this in C5: =IF(B5=0,”none”,A5-B5)

Hiya, I am currently doing a savings tracker based on countdown weeks to our wedding and how much money has been put into savings. Eg currently H32 has 21 weeks till our wedding written as 21 and H 33 has our goal left to save in those 21 weeks currently at 10,500. Each week we save $500. What I would like is that whenever I subtract a week so 21 to 20, i would like the savings box to move from $10,500 to $10,000 (subtract $500). Could you please help me with a code for this? There is not text in the grid, just the numbers 🙂

Mynda Treacy
Hi Vaibhav,
If you want to add values then they need to be entered as values/numbers for the formula in the third row. Without the = sign they are text and you cannot add text in your third row and return a value/number. In other words, it’s not possible. Perhaps you can put the text as desired in the column beside the proper values and then reference the correct values/numbers for your formula result in the third row.

Hi,
I need help to all of you
actually i am creating a incentive calculator for my Sales team
according to our incentive policy
if a sales person achive his monthly target then the total unit multiply with the rate,
here is 2 different situation apply
1st situation
if a person achive his monthly target >100%
for example
a person sale a product 110unit
100 unit is a monthly target
the 100 unit multiply with 100% slab and rest of the 10 unit multiply with >100% or 110% slab.
the slab are also mention here
<80% <89% <99% 100% 110%
56 62.3 69.3 70 87.5 105
kindly suggest me some better option for the calculating of these incentive

Hello everyone,
Desperate need of help as it is driving me insane. I am sure to myself that my formula is correct but not working for me at all so not so sure anymore.
I want cell F5 to have the value of 15 if Cell D5 and E5 have greater value than 1. The formula I am using is: =IF(AND(D5>=1,E5>=1),”15″,0)
Philip Treacy
Hi Joanna,
This formula works fine for me. You haven’t said what error you are getting and I don’t know what data you have in D5 and E5, is it text or numbers?
In your formula you have 15 in quotes “15” which means it is text, not a number. Nothing necessarily wrong with that if you want F5 to contain text though, but best not to store numbers as text.
Also, you have written ‘I want cell F5 to have the value of 15 if Cell D5 and E5 have greater value than 1’ but your formula is testing if the values in D5 and E5 are greater than or equal to 1.
If you can’t figure it out please post on our forum with your workbook so we can see the data.

I need some help with a simple formula I have to create. The description is the next one:
“If Stephanie has sales less than 600 in October, less than 750 in November, or less than 750 in December, the text No Bonus is shown, and if not, the text Bonus is shown.”
The table is this one:
” A B C D E
1. bonus entitlement___________________________________
2. sales person Oct.Sales ¦ Nov.Sales ¦ Dec.Sales¦ Bonus
3. Stephanie 637 829 726
4. Paul 819 939 826
5. Adam 512 721 637
6. Kaylee 728 843 945
7. Thomas 478 526 456
8.
I would really appreciate if you could help me cause I am really stock and I have no idea about excel formulas.
As far as I could get is this: =IF(A3<600
Which I dont even know if I am going well or not.

Hi Faisal,
The data table should look like this, in range A1:F7:
ST\SP 0% 70% 80% 90% 100%
0% 0% 0% 0% 0% 0%
80% 1.10% 1.30% 1.70% 1.90% 2.10%
89% 1.20% 1.40% 1.90% 2.20% 2.40%
99% 1.40% 1.60% 2.20% 2.40% 2.70%
100% 1.50% 1.80% 2.40% 2.70% 3.00%
106% 2.30% 2.70% 3.60% 4.10% 4.50%
Based on this setup, the formula is:
=INDEX($B$2:$F$7,MATCH(86%,$A$2:$A$7,1),MATCH(93%,$B$1:$F$1,1))
you can replace 86% used in the first match with a cell reference to your target sales, and 93% from the second match with your cell containing your average selling price.

Catalin Bombea
Hi Faisal,
I saw your current structure of your lookup table. If you want a formula to work, you will have to reformat your lookup table, like the one I sent, it’s the most simple structure that will need a simple formula. If you’re stuck with your structure, then the formula will be more complex, you will need helper columns to analyze an entry. Not recommended.
Ian
Hi, I’m hoping you can help me with a little problem that should be simple, i’m just missing it.
Basically what i want to return is:
Look up A1 on sheet 1 – Find A1 value on Sheet 2 in column A then return value for Column C in that row IF value from Column B from that row = xyz
ie, if i have a reference number on Sheet 1, i want to find that reference number on Sheet 2, and pull back a date value from Sheet 2 if the status = ‘in progress’.
Let me know if thats not clear?
Catalin Bombea
Hi Ian,
If you don’t want an array formula with multiple conditions, the easiest way is to set in column D a simple formula to merge columns A and B values, then your formula should look into column D:
=Index(Sheet2!C1:C100,Match(A1 & “in progress”,Sheet2!D1:D100,0))
If you want to use an array formula:
=Index(Sheet2!C1:C100,Match(A1 & “in progress”,Sheet2!A1:A100 & Sheet2!B1:B100,0)) (confirmed with CSE).
Ian
Thanks Catalin!! This worked out great (i used the Array formula).
Now, lets say i wanted to use an if statement, where if the value returned was an ‘#N/A’, then it would do a different function (A3-A5) for example.
So, IF (the formula you wrote) returns a number, leave the number, else perform (A3-A5)
Is that possible?
Catalin Bombea
It is possible, but you have to write the formula twice:
=IF(ISNUMBER(formula here), formula again here, A3-A5)
Array formula, of course. I would go for helper columns, if you have lots of formulas, it will be faster than array formulas.
Cheers,
Catalin
Ian
Hi Catalin,
I’m hoping i can call on your super expert help again for one more issue I am running into.
Everything we discussed prior is working as a dream. what i found is that on Sheet 2, there are multiple conditions that match (didn’t expect that initially) and it is only pulling back the first record in the sheet that it matches.
Here is what i’m using:
=INDEX(‘Sheet2’!$H$2:$H$100,MATCH(‘Sheet1′!B4 & “In Progress”,’Sheet2′!$A$2:$A$100 &’Sheet2’!$G$2:$G$100,0))
So this is basically a reference number on Sheet 1, that matches to a reference number on sheet 2, then when it MATCHES the reference number on sheet 2 it looks to match a second field “In Progress”, and if those two match returns a value from a 3rd cell.
What i’m running into is there are multiple rows that meet a condition where the reference number matches and it matches the second field “in Progress”. I need to have all the rows that meet this condition add the 3rd field together (the 3rd field is a numeric / time value)
Example:
match Reference number 001 in column A on sheet 1 to a reference number on sheet 2 in column A. then check that match to column B to see if column B for that same row has the text “in Progress”. then for each row that matches those two conditions, Add all the numbers from Column C and return the added number value.
hope i explained that so it makes sense? Any help you can provide would be super appreciated again!!
Catalin Bombea
Hi Ian,
It’s not an Index-Match any more, use this to sum all matches:
=SUMPRODUCT(Sheet2!$C$2:$C$100*(Sheet2!$A$2:$A$100=Sheet1!B4)*(Sheet2!$G$2:$G$100= “In Progress”))
Cheers,

Hello,
I think what I am trying to do is relatively simple but I cannot get the formula just right or to apply to the whole spreadsheet. I need to take Column B of dates and have them automatically highlight red if they are more than 14 days from the dates in Column A.
For example I found that this formula works for each individual set of dates but I don’t want to have to type it in for each and every column.
=$B2>$A2+14 in the conditional formatting tools this works and but it’s not working for the whole table. I need A1 to coordinate with B1 and A2 to coordinate with B2 etc.
Anyone know how to do this? I know I am so close and it is driving me insane
Mynda Treacy
Hi April,
Your formula looks correct. You need to select the whole range of cells you want formatted before applying the Conditional Format. I explain how Conditional Formatting formulas work in detail here: https://www.myonlinetraininghub.com/excel-conditional-formatting-with-formulas

Hi I have a problem that basically says that if B7=0 and B8>20000 then it’s a ‘yes’. If it’s false then I have to insert a nested if function (using AND) to determine if B7>0 and B8>200000 (when which case it’s a ‘no’ if false)
Basically it’s asking if the goal of 20000 was met if there were no fundraisers for the months of Jan, Feb, and April. But if there were fundraisers in the months of March and May then the goal of 200000 had to be met.
I’m just very lost and would love some help!
Catalin Bombea
Hi Alex,

COLUMN A is a list of names, ROW 1 is a list of dates, intersecting cells have a value such as X: Can I write a formula to search by row 1 for the coordinating information from column A if the X value is present? For example, If A2 contains “Billy Bob”, A3 contains “Phil”, A4 contains “Charles” and B1 contains “April 3”, and B2, B3, B4 (the intersecting coordinates) has “X”, I want to be able to search by the B1 value with the result of all corresponding A values. So search: April 3, Result: Billy Bob, Phil, Charles. ANY HELP IS GREATLY APPRECIATED!
Mynda Treacy
Hi Wil,
I’d use a PivotTable. Put the names in the row labels and drag the date you want the list for into the values area. This will count the Xs against each name, then you can filter out any zero results.
If you get stuck please post your question in our Excel forum where you can upload a sample Excel file that we can put a solution into.

Hi,
I am doing a leave tracker to record all the employees in a year.
There are 4 categories of staff with different leave entitled as well years of services.
Group M
2years is 18days, >5years is 22days
Group E, Group A
2years is 16days, >5years is 20days
Group C
2years is 14days, >5years is 18days
I need the excel will automatically define the correct leave entitled with group data
Is there any good formula to work up?
Seek for help, thank you.
Catalin Bombea
Hi Rachel,
Try this formula:
=INDEX(CHOOSE(INDEX({1,2,3},MATCH(C1,{0,2,5},1)),{0,0,0,0},{14,16,16,18},{18,18,20,22}),MATCH(D1,{“C”,”E”,”A”,”M”},0))
In cell C1, it should be a number representing the number of years, you can use a formula like this: =DATEDIF(A1,B1,”y”)
In D1, you should have the group name: C, E, A or M.

i need a formula for excel sheet. As i have record of fee of school students.

100% fee for first child
75% fee for Second child
50 % for all others & so on

75% will be replaced by 50%
what formula can i use for automatic replacement, pleas help me in this regard
Mynda Treacy
Hi Uzma,
It’s difficult to say without seeing the layout of your Excel file. e.g. do you have rows containing the names of each student and a corresponding column that has the count of family members for that student? If so it would be relatively easy, but if you don’t have that count then you need to calculate that first. Let’s assume you have the count of family members in column B beside each student listed in column A:
If you still have questions please post them in our Excel forum where you can also share the Excel sample file.

Hello,
I have a formula that is giving me a headache. I am trying to do this:
Example:If cell B2=1 then cell C2 equals .043 or if cell B2=2 then cell C2 equals .087.
I am trying to type a number in B2 (1,2,3,4) and then have C2 put in the number that it is tied to or equal to.
Catalin Bombea
Hi Devon,
Try this formula in cell C2 please:
=IF(B2=1,0.043, IF(B2=2,0.087,”Other value in B2″))

Hi selvaraj,
Date and time problems are very sensitive, there are many factors that can affect the calculation.
I think it’s best for you to upload a sample file with your sample data, this way we can analyze the formats you have and provide a functional solution.

whats is formula or program to calculate this ageing in excel
Catalin Bombea
Hi Habeeb,
Not sure what you want to achieve. Are you trying to calculate the difference between nov 2017 and jan 2018? This should be a simple deduction between those 2 cells.
Can you upload a ample file to our forum and clarify what you’re after?
Thanks

Hello,
i am trying to do this formula
=IF(B3=1,AND(C3=5,15,PRODUCT(B3:C3)))
what i want to do is if cell B3 is equal to 1 and cell C3 is equal to 5, then i want it to return 15, Else i want Product of cell B3 and C3
Is this possible, if so What am i doing wrong?
Catalin Bombea
Try this:
=IF(AND(B3=1,C3=15),15,B3*C3)
Steve
That is Awesome, but i have 1 more condition to add in:
=IF(AND(B3=1,C3=5),15,OR(IF(B3=2,C3=5),15,B3*C3))
same thing, but i need to get the same result 15, or product if B3=2
am i doing too many steps?
if B3 is either 1 or 2 and C3 is 5, i need the result to be 15, or the product of the 2 cells
Catalin Bombea
Then it should be:
=IF(AND(OR(B3=1,B3=2),C3=5),15,B3*C3)
There are many ways to write this, here is another version:
=IF(OR(B3*C3=5,B3*C3=10),15,B3*C3)
In this case, it does not matter which cell has the 1 or 2 and which has the 5, so you should know better which one fits to your needs.
Steve
You are Awesome!!!!, have a great day
Catalin Bombea
You too 🙂

Hi,
I’m trying to make a spreadsheet that can automatically assign a time slot to candidates that are successful in a test. For instance, Pass Test A then receive time slot. However, the difficulty comes in doing this for multiple candidates. For instance when the next person is entered as Pass Test A they would receive a timeslot 10 mins after the previous candidate. Is this something that can be automated?
Catalin Bombea
Hi Josh,
There is always a way, sometimes not exactly as your expectations, there may be design changes if something is not possible.
Can you upload on our forum a sample file so we can see your structure? (open a new topic after sign-in). A theoretical answer might not be what you need, we can try to find a personalized solution for you. Don’t forget to add as many detail as possible to clarify things, a fast response usually means that you did a good job explaining what you need 🙂

Try this:
=IF(C5>C3,”local”, IF(AND(C5>=5534,C5<>C3),”local”,IF(C5>E3,”okay”, IF(C5<=E2,"more","other")))) Nested ifs require a specific order of conditions, when the first true condition is met, the rest will not be evaluated.
Kipp Play
=IF(C5>C3,”local”,IF(AND(C5>=5534,C5C3, then place local in the filed. And if C5 is >=E3, then place Okay in the field, but if C5 is <= E2 then place Needs more in the filed.
I just can't seem to get the formula to work the way that I need it.

Hi Mynda,
Thanks for all the pains you and your team take to respond to queries of people visiting your site.
Regarding IF AND function, I am having a problem, kindly assist.
I have Nikhil in A1
in D1 I have put this formula
=IF(AND(A1=”Nikhil”,B1=0),”good”,IF(AND(A1=”Nikhil”,C1=4),” very good”))
even though I do not enter 0 in B1 I am still getting the result “good” in D1 whilst as I should get “very good” as I have put 4 in C1
I know excel treats 0 as some value, which I cannot remember.
Kindly assist as I have a list of 2600 rows to work with. -:)
Best regards,
Subash
Catalin Bombea
Hi Subash,
If B1 is empty, excel will consider it 0, so you need another check:
=IF(AND(A1=”Nikhil”,B1=0, Len(B1)>0),”good”,IF(AND(A1=”Nikhil”,C1=4),” very good”))
Or, put first the other condition, there is a specific behavior with nested IF statements: if a condition is met, the rest of IF statements will not be evaluated.
=IF(AND(A1=”Nikhil”,C1=4),” very good”),IF(AND(A1=”Nikhil”,B1=0),”good”,”other case”))
Subash
Thanks Mynda,
You guys are the greatest.
When I added the LEN function it worked. But it doesn’t work when I shifted the conditions as you suggested.
Thanks and best regards,

Carel van der Merwe
Good day,
I need your assistance please. I have two columns J & K which my information are in. “07/06/2017 05:06 PM” & “11/01/2017 02:08 PM” you can see the information in each cell contains the date as well as the time.. What i want to achieve is a true or false statement based on the time in each cell to calculate whether the difference between the two times are less than four hours of more than four hours difference. Meaning if less than 4 hours difference = true, more than 4 hours difference = false.
I hope and trust that my explanation makes sense. THANK YOU IN ADVANCE!
Catalin Bombea
Hi Carel,
If you want to ignore the dates and work only with times, you can try this:
=ABS(A1-INT(A1)-(B1-INT(B1)))>4/24
A time value will always be less than 1, as a day is an integer, one hour will be 1/24.
A1-INT(A1) will extract only the time fraction, ignoring the days, so it’s just a matter of deducting the time fractions and compare them with 4/24 (4 hours, converted to decimal system).
Catalin
Carel van der Merwe
Hi Catalin,
Thank you very much for you very much for your prompt response. I would like to take the dates into consideration as well seeing the i need to calculate the 4 hour difference =true/false? Is that possible?
So i basically need the calculation to be done on a calendar basis including time running on a 24 hour time format (am & pm) (“,)
Hiya did you get my response?

Hi Carel,
Then simply deduct those 2 cells with dates:
=B1-A1>4/24

I want to put formula in excel like we have some students out of which some only understand english but not able to write and speak.
some understand and write but not able to speak.
some are able to read, write and speak all three.
then we have to categorized if someone is able to speak write and understand then he comes under excellent category.
If he understand and write comes under good category.
if he understand only then comes under average category.
if he is not able to speak write or understand then comes under poor category.
Kindly help in categorizing data as per requirement.
Catalin Bombea
Do you have 3 categories or 4? You mentioned Read, Write, Speak and Understand.
Each student should have 3 columns (or 4, if you have all those 4 attributes mentioned above), with values of 1 and 0. If a simple sum from those 3 columns returns the result 3, it will be “Excellent”, 2 will be “Good”, 1=”Average”, 0=”Poor”.
You can try a simple formula to return those categories:
=Index({“Poor”,”Average”,”Good”,”Excellent”},Match(Sum(B2:D2),{0,1,2,3},0))
This approach will return Good if the student has 1 ability, no matter which one, can be Read, or Write or Speak.
For more restrictive classification, you can use nested IF’s:
=If(And(B2=1,C2=0,D2=0),”Average”,If(And(B2=1,C2=1,D2=0),”Good”,”Other Case”)). You can add more cases until you cover all situations.
I assumed that in column A is the student name, column B is Read, column C is Write, Column D is Speak.

All conditions are met in And If statement which should give True response, but it gives the False response.
‘=IF(AND($D66=”STPC”,$D66=”D-STPC”,I66>=10000),$I66/10000*3,5)
The STPC represents product type in column D, column I represents qty produced. If more than 10,000 are produced, since both logical conditions have been satisfied, should choose true, but it defaults everytime to answer 5.
Example: Row 71 = product type of STPC, and has a qty of 187000 in Column I which should give an answer of 18.70 * 3 = 56.10. But it defaults to 5.
My other And If statements work in other columns, but it is not working in column AN.

It’s a bit more complicated than an IF or even COUNTIF. You want to count data across multiple columns (B:G), as opposed to a single column, which is what COUNTIF is designed to do. You can use SUMPRODUCT like so:

Hi, I have a problem while using IF function.
See.. Am trying to use if function Column B & C with a formula that if column B contains CLOSED than C should be CURRENT date and the formula is ” =IF(B2=”CLOSED”,TODAY(),””) “.
It is working correctly, however, while opening the excel sheet in the next day, it is reflecting the current day and it is not reflecting the date which I actually enter CLOSED in column B on the particular date.
Can someone please help me to fix, what exactly am I doing wrong?
Thanks,
Paddy
Catalin Bombea
Hi Paddy,
Each time excel recalculates, TODAY function will return today’s date.
You have to use a simple macro that will react to column B values, when you type CLOSED, the code will put today’s date in column C.
Should be like this:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim Cell As Range
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("B:B")) Is Nothing Then
Application.EnableEvents = False
For Each Cell In Target
If Cell = "CLOSED" Then Cell.Offset(0, 1) = Date
Next
Application.EnableEvents = True
End If
End Sub
The code should be placed in that worksheet vb module.

Please advise a conditional formatting custom formula to highlight last Thursdays of every month in selected cells.

Hi Jay,
Depends on what you have in those date cells.
In case you have dates, not text, you can try this conditional formatting formula, assuming that data starts from row 2 in column A:
=AND($A2>=EOMONTH($A2,0)-7,WEEKDAY($A2)=5)
Jay
Hi Catalin,
This has been helpful, undoubtedly. I tweaked the function a bit as follows, considering date column is AK and my weekdays start from Monday.
=AND($AK2>=EOMONTH($AK2,0)-7,WEEKDAY($AK2)=4)
Although this is perfect in almost all months, there is some error in few months.
The months ending on Wednesdays’ such as Jan 2018, Feb 2018, Oct 2018, July 2019, Sep 2020, March 2021, etc. shows the first Thursday of the next month i.e. 1st Feb 2018, 1st March 2018, 1 Nov 2018, 1st Aug 2019, 1st Oct 2020, 1st April 2021, etc. respectively, as highlighted.
L.E.:
The months, which are ending with Thursday’s, the formula is considering to highlight the last two Thursday’s of those months. Examples of such months are Aug 2017, November 2017, May 2018, January 2019, February 2019, etc.
Kindly help.
Kindly advise. Thanks..

Simply change the formula from:

Hi Guys,
If I am using the formula: IF(AND(B2=”TRUE”,C2>1),”A”,”B”) where column B’s outputs (True or False) have been calculated with the OR formula (i.e. not hard-typed); I get the wrong output for my IF formula.
Any ideas how you get the right output when relying on information that has got formulas on it?
Thanks
Catalin Bombea
Hi Emma,
Try to use B2=TRUE, without wrapping TRUE between double quotes.

Brilliant!
Thanks 🙂

hi admin,
Pls help to make a formula for, if in a cell (J6) is less then 1 then in cell(J7) populate 100%, If in cell (J6) is in between 1 to 5 then cell (J7) populate 50% and If in a cell(J6) is greater then 5 then populate 0%.
Catalin Bombea
Hi Amit,
Try this formula:
=IF(J6<1,100%,IF(J6<5,50%,0%))
You will have to decide if the limits should be included, use <= instead of <.

What is the three for?
Catalin Bombea
Hi Dale,
is for any other case, not covered by the first 2 evaluations.
Dale H.
In colum E are # 0-15.Im trying to create an equations that says if E is less than 1=40,if greater than 1 but less than 6 =80, if greater than 6 but less than 12 =120, but if greater than 12 =160
This is what created”IF(E3<1,40,IF(16,80,IF(612,120,160)))” anything less than 1 it gives me 40 which is correct but everything greater than 1 its giving me 80 which is semi true.
Catalin Bombea
Instead of nested IF’s, use a more flexible formula:
=INDEX({40,80,120,160},MATCH(E1,{0,1,6,12},1))Catalin

How do I represent the following PAYE info. in an excel:
First 20000 is free (0%), the next 5000 its 15% and the excess is 30%.
E.g
Salary: 40, 000
First 20,000 free
Remaining 20,000
5,000 is 15% = 750
Remaining (excess) 15,000
15,000 is 30% = 4500

Hi,
I am trying to calculate depreciated values of assets based on number of years I have owned them.
the first problem is I am unable to do it all in one cell. moreover, when I split it up, almost all cells were returning values although i have limited my logic to one year. see below:
Price No of yrs depreciated value > 5 yrs 4-5 yrs 3-4 yrs 2-3 yrs 1-2 years
28,500 4.05 8,550.00 FALSE 8,550.00 14,250.00 19,950.00 25,650.00
the correct column for this example should be 4-5 year and this is the formula: =IF(5>H4>=4,G4*0.3,0)
I have created similar formulas for he rest of the columns and as you can see all are returning values although i have stated a value if false.
=IF(4>H4>=3,G4*0.5,0)
=IF(3>H4>=2,G4*0.7,0)
=IF(2>H4>=1,G4*0.9,0)
Catalin Bombea
Hi Natasha,
Use the AND function to combine multiple logical tests:
=IF(AND(4>H4,H4>=3),G4*0.5,0)

Hope someone can help.
In column C, I have text.
In column D, I have account numbers. Their format is for example: 505.1605.130
Another account number will be 505.2450.100
Now the 16 in the first account number example indicates that it is an asset account.
Not if the account in column D is an asset account, I want the cell $H$8 displayed in column H and the row that the account is in.
BUT, in the same formula, I want to look up in column C (which is a text column) for the word Depn between multiple words, and also return $H$8 to the row in column H.
I’ve started with the following formula, but it still need a lot of work.
=IF(AND(LEFT($D$12,5)=1,LEFT($D$12,6)=6),$H$8,””)
Can it be done?
Catalin Bombea
Hi Ludi,
Use MID to find the account:=IF(AND(MID(D8,5,2),ISNUMBER(SEARCH(“depn”,D8)))=”16″,H8,””)

I am trying to track sick time, I want it to be that they earn 1 hour for every week worked, max of 80. once they use some it should subtract that and keep tracking example
week 80 they are at 80
week 81 they are at 80 still
week 82 they use 8 hours so they are now at 72
week 83 they get 1 hour so they are at 73
can you do this?

This is Ahsan. I have created a new logic which is mentioned below.

by this logic any one can set any new target with below mentioned management criteria such as (if existing employee achieve 0 to 0.75 then his new target will be 0.75 but if existing achievement is more then 0.75 then 20% achievement will be add with existing achievement). Hope this logic will help with other.

Hi,
I am trying to have excel look up a cell in the same workbook – but per identity.
In this case cell 21 in each separate identity (represents a date/time entry via a macro.
This is reflected identically in the Summary Sheet in column A per identity =MickyMouse!A21.
When the new date is action via the macro in MickyMouse work sheet inside this same working book, the Summary sheet no longer reflects the current entry but rather changes the cell entry:
=MickyMouse!A22. HO do I automate this to be a true reflection, or a MACRO to check the column and make sure all end in !21.

I am creating a worksheet with a little automation and would like to create an expression that outputs this example; If JANE DOE (name in column 1) will be arriving within the next 30 days (arrival date in column 2 listed as (date formatted) 21 January 2018) show “30 days or less” in column 3
Catalin Bombea
Try this:
=IF(Today()-B1<=30, "30 days or less", ">30 days")Catalin

Thanks for the reply. Its a good start but it doesn’t argue the date in column b, it just says “30 days or less” regardless. I tested it by changing the date in column b to 31 December 2018 and it returned with “30 days or less”
Catalin Bombea
Hi Steven,
For future dates, higher than today’s date, use B1-TODAY() in the logical test argument. If the date is smaller than today’s date, use TODAY()-B1. If you want this to work in both ways, use ABS(TODAY()-B1)
Cheers,
Catalin

Catalin,
Thanks so much that worked. If its not too much to ask, and im only asking because I cant seem to figure it out and you are already familiar with this problem.
I would like to output in the same argument “31-90 days”, “91-180 days”, “More than 181 days”
Thanks again for your time!
Catalin Bombea
Hi Steven,
Use an Index/Match formula with constants, like:
=INDEX({"Less than 30 days","31-90 days","91-180 days","More than 181 days"},MATCH(B1-TODAY(),{0,30,90,180},1))chell

I’ve been struggling to figure out how to type in this IF function for excel. I could really use some help! Thank you!!
In cell G2, create a formula using the IF function and structured references to create a calculated column that determines the value of Weeks Vacation based on the following criteria:
a. If the years employed are less than 3, the Weeks Vacation should be 2
b. If the years employed are 3 or more, the Weeks Vacation should be 3
I keep getting invalid credentials or the outcomes being all FALSE, TRUE and 0, all the cells being 0, or the first 3 cells being 0 and the last 3 coming out as NULL instead of the correct numbers… The correct answers when the formula is entered correctly is:
G2:3
G3:2
G4:3
G5:2
G6:3
G7:3
Thanks again!
Catalin Bombea
Hi Madisen,
If you have an employment date column, the formula should be simple:
=IF(YEAR(Today())-YEAR(EmploymentDate)<3,2,3) (where EmploymentDate refers to that starting date column)
If you already have the employment years calculated, replace YEAR(Today())-YEAR(EmploymentDate) with your cell reference where you have this value.

I need to see if the value in A2 is 10% or higher than the value in B2…should I be using an IF function for this…I can’t figure it out
Mynda Treacy
Hi Paul,
You can do this with a simple logic formula like so:
If it’s bigger then it will return TRUE, otherwise it will return FALSE
You didn’t say what you wanted to return if A2 was 10% greater than B2. If you want to return something other than TRUE or FALSE (that will be returned by the formula above) then you’ll need IF.

It looks like your EDATE function isn’t correct. It only has two arguments; Start Date and Months.

Your description is very confusing, and there is a range not covered: what should happen if the percentage is between 100 and 105% ? You described only 80-10 and above 105%. The formula for this case, which is value 4 argument of the CHOOSE function, must be changed according to this case needs.

Is there anyone who can simplifier this formula for me? Please I need your assistance.

C2 to U2 not blank, the application removed the sign less than and great than after cell numbers.

Hi Edouard,
Try this one:
=IF(AND(W2>=$X$10,W2<=$Y$10,SUMPRODUCT((C2:U2<>"")*1)=COLUMNS(C2:U2)),"NAF","DEL")You can replace COLUMNS(C2:U2) with 19, if the number of cells in that range is not going to change.
You will also have to change the comma separator to your semicolon separator in formula.

I wonder if you could help me. I am trying to set up a spreadsheet of products we sell, however some items have GST (Australian tax at 10%) some do not. My C6 column asks if the product has GST and I have a Y or N answer in this field. Further along my sheet in J6 I have a sale price column. Then K6 is GST (=SUM(J6*1.1-J6))
L6 is sale price plus GST (=SUM(J6+K6))
How could I write in Excel language… If C6 equals N to leave the K6 as Zero, but if C6 = Y to show the equation I already have? Maybe there is a much easier way and I am complicating things too much!
I have Googled myself crazy trying to work this out! Hope anyone could help!!

Hi Alec,
An Index-Match formula should work:
=INDEX({0.10,0.6,0.4},MATCH(A1,{0,41121,42582},1))
Te formula can be inserted in any cell you need, just replace the A1 reference with the cell that holds the date to evaluate.
Those 2 arrays with constants (in curly brackets) contains your indications: 0.10 will be returned if the date is between 0 and 41121, 0.6 will be returne if the date is between 41121 and 42582, 0.4 for dates higher than 42562.
Make sure you have dates in correct format, not text strings. (a date is a number representing the number of days from 01/1/1900, 41121 is 7/31/2012)
The key is the last argument of the Match function; 1 is the Match type: Less Than.

i am typing this formula=IF(AND(C3>=25,D3>=25,E3>=60,F3>=150),”PASS”,”FAIL”) for status but it says formula contains error. Could you please locate my error?
Catalin Bombea
You have to upload a sample file on our forum(create a new topic), the formula is looking good. We have to see the file to understand what happens there.

This didn’t work.
=IF(ISBLANK(M2),””,IF((TODAY()-I2)>45,”Contact Requester”,””))
It showed Contact Requestor even though M2 had a closed date and when I deleted the closed date it didn’t perform IF((TODAY()-I2)>45,”Contact Requester”,””)) part of the formula.

Hi Diane,
I think I’m confused 🙂 Can you please post your question and sample file on our Excel Forum. That is the best place for support as we can actually see your file and what you’re working with.
Thanks,

In reference to my earlier comment….
This almost does what I need
=IF(AND(NOT(ISBLANK(M2))),””,IF((TODAY()-I2)>45,”Contact Requester”,””)), but if the formula is in A1 (such as a template) because I2 is blank A1 Displays “Contact Requester” until I put in an issue date, whereas I want it to be blank.

Hi I am having trouble with my formula., If M2 is blank I want to perform the following **calculation below. This part works great, what I am having trouble with is the cell M2 part of it. If M2 is not blank I don’t need to determine is today is more than 45 days (I2 contains an issue date), however if M2 is blank I need to know if it is overdue (M2 contains closed date)
** =IF((TODAY()-I2)>45,”Contact Requester”,””) works great
How do I write the formula to accomplish if I2 is over 45 days and M2 is blank the cell will populate with Contact Requestor (this part works), but if M2 has a date I want A1 (cell where formula is) to stay blank.

I can’t get my formula correct. What I need to do is say “if G3 is greater than today, then write RED in column D3 which is the RAG status column.
Thanks for your help.

Hi Amanda,

if grossprofit <=15000,then taxes = gross profit * 20 %, rest all cases Gross profit * 30%
Catalin Bombea
Try:
=IF(GrossProfit<=15000,GrossProfit*0.2, GrossProfit*0.3) You already written the formula, in a very close format 🙂 Replace GrossProfit with a cell reference.

Hello Guys,
I have a formula that requires 6 out of 12 conditions to be met randomly. if I try to use the IF with AND and OR, I need to write more conditions than the Excel can provide.
the questions is, how can I tell excel that if 6 conditions are met, then the return value would be “X”?

How can I tell Excel to return s specific value if 6 out of the 12 conditions are met randomly?

Hi Samer,
Please post your question on our Excel Forum with a sample Excel file so we can see your question in context, as I don’t understand the scenario you describe.

=IF(B28=””,””,IF(OR(B28=B29,B28<B29),"MET","UNMET"))
if B28 and B29 are equal, it's supposed to say "MET" but it doesn't. say B28 and B29 are both 10%, it says "UNMET" instead. care to comment? thanks
Catalin Bombea
Check B28 and B29, there may be more decimals than displayed. Increase the number of decimals displayed, this way you will be able to see if the results are different, or round the values: ROUND(B28,4)=ROUND(B29,4)

I need help with this formula.
If column A is “corn” then it’s d5/2.6, but if column A is “soybeans” then it’s d5/.93
also this one:
if column A is “cotton” and column B is “Monsanto” then it’s d5/5.55, but if column A is “cotton” and column B is “Phytogen” then it’s d5/5.11
Any help would be appreciated 🙂
Catalin Bombea
Hi Leslie,
Try this one: =IF(A5=”corn”,D5/0.93,IF(AND(A5=”cotton”,B5=”Monsanto”),D5/5.55,IF(AND(A5=”cotton”,B5=”Phytogen”),D5/5.11,0)))
It will return 0 if no condition is met.

Hi There
Can one do an auto allocation?
If A1 is > than 0 then C1 will always be 4
Thanks
Catalin Bombea
What should be there if A1 is not >0?
Put this in C1:
=IF(A1>0,4,A1)
If you wanted to modify cell C1 from a formula located in another cell, this is not possible, a formula will display a result only in the cell where it’s located. Only through a specific macro you can modify any cell you want.

Hi Tena,
In a separate column insert this formula:
Where 'salary' is the cell containing your salary. You can then replace the values in the existing salary column with the values returned by the formula if you wish.

our employees get vacation time as follows but I cannot seem to come up with the correct formula, either it’s an error or it shows blank – I’ve tried multiple ways, please help
less than 1 year = 0 days
@ 1 year but less than 3 years = 5 days
@ 3 years but less than 10 = 10 days
10 years or more 15 days
Mynda Treacy
Hi Donna,
Try this formula where A2 contains the number of years they’ve been employed:
If that doesn't work then it's best if you can post your question with a sample Excel file on our Excel Forum so we can see what format your years are in.

hi I have an issue. I need my daily total that I have auto summed that if the daily total is less than 94$ fill in 94$ if not less than 94$ then the auto sum of the daily total.

Hi Carla,
Please upload a sample file on our Forum, I don’t understand what you mean by autosum.
The IF condition is simple:
If(DailyTotal<=94, 94, DailyTotal) Catalin

hi I have a problem, simple though, but isn’t getting the required results..
the values in column A are as followings:
A1= 699, A2= 499, A3, 399, A4= 899, A5=799
Now in Column B I want to show the calculation as: If A1>500, then it should calculate 5% of the value in A1; if A1<500, then it should display 0.
Please help.
Thanks in advance!

Try this:
=IF(A1>=500,A1*0.05, 0)
