Hello,
I am trying to put together a sheet that reflects as a holistic "Status Update" depending on whether or not something has been "Approved", is "Pending", or has been "Denied".
I attached a photo that shows what I am trying to get my sheet to reflect and what is happening with returned values.
Here are the examples of what I want my formula to do:
IF: SR. Site Superintendent Approval? = YES & Sr. Project Manager Approval? = YES then Final Status will be "APPROVED"
IF one of these columns say "NO" at all I need to Final Status column to reflect "Denied"
If both of the columns say "Pending" I need it to reflect "Pending"
If one of the statuses reads "Pending" and one says "Yes" I still need it to reflect "Pending"
This is what I have been trying to get to work, but it keeps returning "0" in some of my columns, and also placing a "0" at the beginning of my "Denied" return.
Help?
=IF(AND([Sr. Site Superintendent Approval?]16 = "PENDING", [Sr. Project Manager Approval?]16 = "PENDING"), "PENDING") + IF(AND([Sr. Site Superintendent Approval?]16 = "YES", [Sr. Project Manager Approval?]16 = "YES"), "APPROVED") + IF(OR([Sr. Site Superintendent Approval?]16 = "NO", [Sr. Project Manager Approval?]16 = "NO"), "DENIED")
Also Note: I was trying to add rules about "Pending If one said "Pending" and one said "Yes" = "Pending" but the formula kept returning strange.
