Can someone please take a look at this formula to see what I'm doing incorrectly?
=IF(NOT(Approver@row = "#NO MATCH"), "Action Complete", "Outstanding Action")
The result of the above equation is that if the data check is not "#NO MATCH", the result properly lists "Action Complete". However, if it is #NO MATCH I would like it to say "Outstanding Action" and that is not happening with this formula.
Thanks in advance!

Give this a try (make sure parenthesis are all in place):
=IF(ISERROR(Approver@row), "Outstanding Action", "Action Complete")

@asimcock, try this,
=IF(NOT(iserror(Approver@row), "Action Complete", "Outstanding Action")

Hi @Samuel Mueller thanks for the formula, the hiccup I'm running into is that the text in the column I'm searching for must have the text "#NO MATCH" in order for me to determine if the action was taken. The above formula unfortunately didn't work. I then tried adding the not equal section in as well and that didn't work either
=if(isnot(Approver@row="#No Match", "Action Completed, "Outstanding Action")
the end result I'm hoping for is that if the reference cell is #NO MATCH the Status will be "Outstanding Action" and if the reference cell has a person's name in it, it will say "Action Completed".
Thanks for taking a look!
