Hi!
I have two columns. One if the Due Date and the other is the Completed Date. I would like to set-up an equation where it counts the number of times an item was completed late (after the due date). Is this possible? If yes, what is the equation?
Hmmm. I swear I know a better way of doing this, but I am having trouble getting anything to work. To do this quickly, you could create a helper column and use the following IF statement =IF([Completed Date]@row > [Due Date]@row, "late")
That will write the word late in the row... then you could do a simple... =Countifs([Helper Column]:[Helper Column], "late")
You could do this with the followting equation:
=IF([Completed Date]3 > [Due Date]3, 1, "")
This will put a 1 in the column if the Completed Date was after the Due Date. Then sum the column.
Here is an example sheet https://app.smartsheet.com/b/publish?EQBCT=d3c78d81b9424434a84055dfa1e2f28d
Comparing two (or more) columns for a count at the row level without a helper column is possible with an absurd amount of nested COLLECT functions which also happens to be rather inflexible and easily broken.
I have tested and dug through the forums here and tested some more, and the best thing by far I personally have found has been to use a helper column to compare the cells at the row level and then count the helper column.
If you can find a different way, I'm all ears. Adding extra stuff in after a sheet has been in use enough to have a few thousand rows is rather tiresome.
Hello, This might be somewhat of a long/confusing one. I am trying to figure out how to better automate categorization for blood pressure categories when being placed into a sheet. For example, in the image below the column "BP" is where the initial number is input. I then put a LEFT formula in the column "Sys formula" to…
I’m trying to set up an automation rule in Smartsheet where the “Status” column automatically changes to “In Progress” when the “% Complete” column is updated to a value between 1% and 99%. I noticed that there isn’t a “between” function available when setting conditions in the automation workflow. What is the correct way…
Hi all, I need support by set up of a formula. The case is: - If column 'Team' = Security AND column 'T-shirt size hours' = L = 2 days THAN column Days_Sec = 2 - If column 'Team' = Development AND column 'T-shirt size hours' = L = 2 days THAN column Days_DEV = 2 - If column 'Team' = Basis AND column 'T-shirt size hours' =…
