I am trying to give a percentage based on how 2 columns read. Column PassFailA and Column PassFailB. If both show Pass 100%, If A is Pass B is Fail or Vise Versa 50% and if both Fail 25%
Hello,
Thanks for the question. If I understand what you're looking to do correctly, this can be accomplished using a nested IF formula including the AND and OR functions. More on all of the available functions can be found here (https://help.smartsheet.com/functions), and we also have a blog post on how to build nested IF formulas which can be found here (https://www.smartsheet.com/blog/support-tip-build-nested-IF). Here's an example of how this could be written:
=IF(AND([Column PassFailA]@row = "Pass", [Column PassFailB]@row = "Pass"), 1, IF(AND(OR([Column PassFailA]@row = "Fail", [Column PassFailB]@row = "Fail"), OR([Column PassFailA]@row = "Pass", [Column PassFailB]@row = "Pass")), 0.5, IF(AND([Column PassFailA]@row = "Fail", [Column PassFailB]@row = "Fail"), 0.25)))
For this example I'm also using @row instead of the row's number within the cell reference. This will help make the formula more efficient as this sheet grows larger. More on @row can be found here (https://help.smartsheet.com/articles/2476491#row).
I've also included a screenshot of the outcomes for every scenario you listed. I'd also like to note that if either column is left blank, this formula will leave the % Column blank until both are set to either "Pass" or "Fail".
Hello, I have a workflow where, when a team member checks a checkbox, Smartsheet automatically sends an email to themselves containing merge fields that are used as a customer email draft. The challenge is that this activity typically happens on a deadline day, and a team member may need to generate 30 or more of these…
Hi all, reaching out to see if of you have ideas; I'm hoping this makes sense: I'm having some trouble getting my formulas to pull data in correctly. I currently have a sheet (primary data) where I have data in rows where each row is a single project, with columns identifying persons, $ values, unique project identifier,…
I have #'s that pull from each project into each sheet's - sheet summary. Those then get pulled into a sheet summary report. They are currently grouped by what channel they are in. Each column gives a total sum. I was asked to see if we can combine the total sum into one number, so it shows how many total SKU's are being…
