IF AND AND OR

I have question in a grid asking

Is the Risk Assessment up-to-date? which is [Q6] with three drop down option being

Yes

No

We do not have Lone Worker Risk Assessments in place


To auto generate the next cell - need the responses activated as below

Yes - You have indicated that your Lone Working Risk Assessments are up-to-date, please ensure this is monitored on a regular basis.

No - You have indicated that your Lone Working Risk Assessments are not up-to-date, please ensure this action is completed immediately.

We do not have Lone Worker Risk Assessments in place -

You have indicated that you do not have Lone Worker Risk Assessments in place, a risk assessment must be carried out in all areas of work where working alone poses an actual or potential risk to staff.


I am struggling with the formula though, this doesn't work - =IF(AND([Q6]@row = "Yes", "You have indicated that your Lone Working Risk Assessments are up-to-date, please ensure this is monitored on a regular basis.", OR [Q6]@row = "No", "You have indicated that your Lone Working Risk Assessments are not up-to-date, please ensure this action is completed immediately.", "You have indicated that you do not have Lone Worker Risk Assessments in place, a risk assessment must be carried out in all areas of work where working alone poses an actual or potential risk to staff."))


Can anyone give any advice?

    Hi @Debbie Priest 

    Hope you are fine, please try the following formula:

    =IF([Q6]@row = "Yes", "You have indicated that your Lone Working Risk Assessments are up-to-date, please ensure this is monitored on a regular basis.", IF([Q6]@row = "No", "You have indicated that your Lone Working Risk Assessments are not up-to-date, please ensure this action is completed immediately", IF([Q6]@row = "We do not have Lone Worker Risk Assessments in place", "You have indicated that you do not have Lone Worker Risk Assessments in place, a risk assessment must be carried out in all areas of work where working alone poses an actual or potential risk to staff")))
