If Formula

Lisa_Doris

I need a formula that if a checkbox is checked, it populates the data of another cell.

Example, I am tracking the # of approved delays in days.

I need the formula that when the [Approved Bonus Delay] is checked the [# of Days Delay] is copied into the [#of Approved Bonus Delays] cell

The formula I currently use is populating a 1 and not 55 (or 555)

=IF([Approved Bonus Delay]5, 1, [# of Days Delay]5)

Thanks

Your true and false are reversed. Try this.

=IF([Approved Bonus Delay]@row, [# of Days Delay]@row, 1)

Cheers,

@Ramzi Thank you Ramzi, this works almost perfectly, however if the

checkbox is NOT checked it returns the # 1 instead of 0.

Just change the last part of the IF. The IF function works as:

IF ( {Whatever condition you want to check}, {What do you want to happen if that condition is true}, {what do you want to happen if the condition is false} )

So where your function has a 1 at the end in the "what happens if the condition is false", just replace that with a 0.
