Formula to count if child row is checked 'active'; if no child rows, then look at current row

Jon Baier

I need a formula that

• Determines if the row has child rows
• If yes, then count the number of child rows that have the 'Active' checkbox checked and show that total in the parent row Active Sites column.
• If no child rows, then look at the Active checkbox in that current row and show a 1 in the Active Sites column if it is checked, 0 if not checked.
• If the row is a child row, I'd still like the Active Site column to show a 1 if the box is checked.

Here is my formula so far:

=IF(COUNT(CHILDREN() >= 1), COUNTIF(CHILDREN(Active@row), 1), IF(Active@row = 1, 1, 0))

It works for the Parent Row, but doesn't do anything in the rows that are either a child, or a row that has no child rows.

Any suggestions?

Try this out...

=IF(COUNT(CHILDREN(Customer@row)) > 0, COUNTIFS(CHILDREN(Active@row), 1), IF(Active@row = 1, 1))

Try this out...

=IF(COUNT(CHILDREN(Customer@row)) > 0, COUNTIFS(CHILDREN(Active@row), 1), IF(Active@row = 1, 1))

Thanks Paul - that did the trick. Much appreciated.
