I am looking for a simple formula to multiply [Quantity] times [Cost] only if there is data in the quantity cell. Currently the [total] column fills with $0.00 if there is no data in these columns. The "HELP" page is not clear to me on how to do the ISN'T Blank formula.
Thank you

Try,
=IF(Quantity@row = "", "", Quantity@row * Cost@row)
Hi Al,
Try this.
=IF(Quantity@row = ""; ""; Quantity@row * Cost@row)
The same version but with the below changes for your and others convenience.
Depending on your country you’ll need to exchange the comma to a period and the semi-colon to a comma.
Did it work?
Have a fantastic week!

Alternately, you could use ISBLANK.
=IF(ISBLANK(Quantity@row), "", Quantity@row * Cost@row)
Or even
=IF(ISNUMBER(Quantity@row), Quantity@row * Cost@row)
Thank you everyone for the quick response. Really a big help!
You're welcome.
Here what I entered on this one for row 10. I got an error. Perhaps I misunderstood your answer.
=IF(ISNUMBER([Quantity]10), [Quantity]10 * [Material Cost Each]10
Happy to help!

What error did you get? Other than the last parenthesis missing (which Smartsheet should have autopopulated anyway), everything looks fine.
I got the #UNPARSEABLE error. I did add the last parenthesis because it did not do it automatically.
I will also try some of the other ideas presented.
=IF(ISNUMBER([Quantity]10), [Quantity]10 * [Material Cost Each]10) for line 10
Thanks
I must not be doing something right here.
=IF(([Quantity]12) = ""; ""; ([Quantity]12 * [Material Cost Each]12))
Thanks,
=IF(ISNUMBER(Quantity10), Quantity10 * [Material Cost Each]10)
This SHOULD work...
Ok.
Try and copy my formula and then update the column names.
Hi-
I tried copying the formula =IF(Qty@row = "", "", Qty@row * Unit Cost@row) and I am still getting an #Unparseable error. Can someone please assist. I am trying to get the Total amount to fill in with the above formula.
Is there a way to revert to the old dashboard look and feel. The new dashboards do not look good at all. There is no way of knowing if there are additional items in the widgets until you scroll over one to learn there is more to it since the vertical bar doesn't show. We have hundreds of dashboards and they will all need…
When i try to send or print the timeline view instead of showing the progression bars like they do on the screen it only send the data entered and not a graph type view to print. Is there a way to do this. I am using a mac platform if that helps.
