Trying to connect checkboxes to colors

Taylor-Pittman

Hi there-

I am trying to make a "status" column turn green or yellow based on a check box in the spreadsheet.

Basically when the "checkbox a" is checked ("true") I want it to turn my status to "Yellow". When the other box "checkbox b" is checked ("true") I want the status to turn "Green". 

Here is what I have so far- =IF(FIND("true", [SOs Created]5), "Yellow", FIND("true", [Job Completed]5), "Green")

Any help would be greatly appreciated! 

Thanks!

=if([SOs Created]@row = 1, "Yellow", if([Job Completed]@row = true, "Green"))

This is working! However, I need the green to happen when both checkboxes are marked true.

So if I check the first box it turns yellow, YAY! But, in order for the other one to make the status green you have to uncheck the first box. 

Thanks!

Hi Taylor,

Try something like this.

=IF(AND([SOs Created]@row = 1; [Job Completed]@row = 1); "Green"; IF([SOs Created]@row = 1; "Yellow"))

The same version but with the below changes for your and others convenience.

=IF(AND([SOs Created]@row = 1, [Job Completed]@row = 1), "Green", IF([SOs Created]@row = 1, "Yellow"))

Depending on your country you’ll need to exchange the comma to a period and the semi-colon to a comma.

Did it work?

Hope that helps!

Have a fantastic week!
