How to create a formula to flag at risk events

Tamiko Smith

Hello Community, I am trying to create a formula that will create a flag if the Status of Resolution' is selected as "Unresolved". Is this possible in Smartsheet, and if so, any guidance on the formula to use to generate the flag would be very appreciated.

Hi @Tamiko Smith

Try something like this.

=IF([Status of Resolution]@row = "Unresolved"; 1)

The same version but with the below changes for convenience.

=IF([Status of Resolution]@row = "Unresolved", 1)

Depending on your country/region, you'll need to exchange the comma to a period and the semi-colon to a comma.

Did that work?

I hope that helps!

Be safe and have a fantastic week!

Hi Andrée,

That worked perfectly. I used the =IF([Status of Resolution]@row = "Unresolved", 1) formula since the other formula returned an error.

I am very grateful for your assistance.

Enjoy the rest of your week!
