Formula to copy one cell unless it is empty then copy another cell

I've used the formula =IF(IFBLANK, {Source Cell}, {Fallback Cell}) but I'm getting #unparseable.

Any suggestions please? (The cells it's copying are index-matched to another sheet but they both populate with "N/A" until the original source sheet is populated but it's still not copying over the "N/A".

Formula:

Source cells:

Many thanks

  • I resolved it, thank you. I wasn't putting the original cell to check. It now works now I've added this.
