Need Help! RYG to update if Status = Completed OR % Complete = 100%

aajanee

Not sure what i'm doing wrong here. I want the RYG column to show green if the status is "completed" OR if the % complete is 1. Please assist. 

 

=IF(OR(Status@row = "Completed", [% Complete]@row = 1), "Green", IF([End Date]@row - [Baseline Estimated Finish]@row > 2, "Red", IF([End Date]@row - [Baseline Estimated Finish]@row > -2, "Yellow", "Green"))))

Hi Andree, 

 

Yes, it's #UNPARSEABLE

L_123

You have to many ending parenthesis. Smartsheet, unlike excel, will automatically generate all of the ending parenthesis for you provided they are at the end of the statement. I recommend never typing them in and let smartsheet just autocalculate them. That can be its' own form of error checking.

 

There might be something else wrong as well, i'll wait for your reply to see if that fixes it before I dive into it.

L@123 that fixed it. I should have caught that.

 

Thank you!

You and me both!

Easy to miss!

When trouble shooting a nested IF, the first thing I generally do is look at how many IF's I have and whether or not I have the same amount of closing parenthesis at the end. They should be the same.
