Apply filters within a formula / IF statements?

Andrea Walters

Hello!

I am trying to apply some filters within a formula but I'm not quite sure which ones to use. I've tried using if, minimum, and a few others but it comes back as unparseable.

Column A = Person Name (values = Ann, Dan, Stan)

Column B = Event Type (values = Internal, External)

Column C = Cost (values = any amount in US dollars)

I am trying to return the minimum cost (column C) IF Column A = Ann AND Column B = Internal.

And once that works, would also want to calculate the average cost using the same filters (Column A / Person Name = Ann AND Column B / Event Type = Internal).

Minimum cost would be something like this...

=MIN(COLLECT([Column C]:[Column C], [Column A]:[Column A], @cell = "Ann", [Column B]:[Column B], @cell = "Internal"))

The average would look pretty much the same except for the main function:

=AVG(COLLECT([Column C]:[Column C], [Column A]:[Column A], @cell = "Ann", [Column B]:[Column B], @cell = "Internal"))
