Multiplying Cells in an IF statement

Morning Smartsheeters..

Was hoping someone could shed some light on why this statement isn't working..

=IF(Part75 = "Labour", [Supply Price]75 * [Quantity]75)

I'm trying to multiply two cells based on whether the labour cost is Labour, or Labour O/T.. but I'm getting an INVALID OPERATION FAILURE.

Thank you.

NVM, worked it out :)

the value in the IF statment for the "Supply Price was "£45".. Removing the £ and changing the cell type to a currency fixed it.

Hi @John_CGS

Strange!

It should work.

Make sure that you only have numbers in the Supply Price and Quantity columns.

Also, you can simplify the formula by using the @row function.

=IF(Part@row = "Labour", [Supply Price]@row * Quantity@row)

Can you maybe share some screenshots? (Delete/replace any confidential/sensitive information before sharing) That would make it easier to help. (share too, andree@getdone.se)

I hope that helps!

Be safe and have a fantastic week!

Thank you Andree! I managed to get it working by removing the £ in the cells i was multiplying by as you suggested.

Also thank you for the tip on the @row function!

Excellent!

You're more than welcome!

Also, you can add the currency through the menubar instead if you still want it to show.
