Conditional Statements

Divya Purnima

Hi Everyone, 

 

I would like to as add formula to the start date and finish date of the task/project like, if the duration is less than 3days, the result will "rush fee applies" like a note.

 

And, another formula is for language services or any other; language checks box yes or no if I click on yes those languages will appear and other will hide.

 

Final one is for Budget I want to add a formula if the budget value is less than $5000.00 then It should send us alert. 

 

Can you please help us how to add formulas for the above 3 statements?

Hi Divya,

 

For the first formula, make a new column and enter =if(([end date]x - [start date]x)<3, "Rush fee applies") equation

 

For the second formula, make a new column and enter =if([language check box]x = 1, "Lauguage Service", "Any Other")

If there are multiple language check boxes, try to nest the if equation e.g. =if([language 1 check  box]x = 1, "Language 1 service", if([language 2 check box]x = 1, "Language 2 Service", ...)

 

And for the last one,

First, set up a flag symbol column and enter this equation in it "=if([budget value]x < 5000, 1, 0), this will result in getting a red flag when a budget is lower than $5,000.

And set up an alert with conditions "send *person(s)*" + "send immediately" + "when *flag column* changes".

 

x = row number

 

Hopefully that works.
