Why is my formula not working?
Hi all , looking for some help on this formula. I have done 2 example below of what i have tried but doesn't seem to be working. The Column i need to show dates if certain criteria meet. If you can help that will be great
=IF([Remedial Status]@row = "Remedial Required", IF([Remedial Status]@row = "Overdue Remedial", [Date Of Last Inspection]@row + 5, ""))
=IF([Remedial Status]@row = "Remedial Required", [Date Of Last Inspection]@row + 5, "") = IF([Remedial Status]@row = "Overdue Remedial", [Date Of Last Inspection]@row + 5, "")

Hi @Charlie H ,
You formula should be a nested IF along the lines of this:
=IF([Remedial Status]@row = "Remedial Required", [Date of Last Inspection]@row + 5, IF([Remedial Status]@row = "Overdue Remedial", [Date of Last Inspection]@row + 5, ""))
Sample output:
Hope this helps, but if I've misunderstood anything or you still have any problems/questions then just let us know!
