Column Formula IF Parent THEN formula ELSE text

Detrie Zacharias

I'm trying to create a column formula that will run a formula if the row is a Parent but let me add any value if it is a child

This gives me a #CIRCULAR REFERENCE error on the Parent and #BLOCKED on the children

=IF(COUNT(ANCESTORS()) = 0, AVG(CHILDREN()))

Hi @Detrie Zacharias

I hope you're well and safe!

Can you describe your process in more detail and maybe share the sheet(s)/copies of the sheet(s) or some screenshots? (Delete/replace any confidential/sensitive information before sharing) That would make it easier to help. (share too, andree@workbold.com)

I hope that helps!

Be safe and have a fantastic week!

Best,
