IF THEN use for equations/calculations

Caryn 123

Does the IF THEN function work for this scenario?

IF the number in that cell is negative THEN use this calculation, IF the number is positive, THEN use this other calculation

Note: Sorry, due to privacy issues, I cannot share the actual calculations.

Hi @Caryn 123, absolutely you can. There isn't a "THEN" function, instead you'll have to chain multiple "IF" functions. There's a lot of examples in the community that may help you, this page may help you with more information:

Multiple IF Statements

Can we do multiple IF statements? I've tried to use IF and also OR to complete the function I'm trying to do and nothing seems to work. I want my Status column, "Not Started", "In Progress", and "Completed" to be based off of the % indicated in the % Completed column so I don't have to remember to change the status when the % completed changes. I know I've done this before in Excel but not sure Smartsheet can handle an IF statement with multiple conditions.

Here is the logic...

IF % Completed = 0%, then return "Not Started"

IF % Completed = 100%, then return "Completed"

IF % Completed is between 1 - 99, then return "In Progress" OR this could also be IF the first two logics are FALSE then return "In Progress".

 

Thank you,

Kim
