Assistance writing formullae

Vinton Douglas

Good day, I am in need of help writing the following formulae:

1. Status to display 'red' bubble in a column if a project is between 0-50% completed. 'Blue' bubble if between 51%-75% completed. 'Amber' bubble if between 76%-99% completed and 'green' bubble if 100% completed.
2. How do I calculate the percentage in a third column if one column contains the total # Obs and the other column has the # Obs completed (see attached).

Grateful for any help.

Strange, but it's working now, right?

Hi @Vinton Douglas

I hope you're well and safe!

Try something like this.

1.

=IF([% Obs Completed]@row = "", "", IF([% Obs Completed]@row = 1, "Green", 
IF([% Obs Completed]@row <= 0.5, "Red", IF([% Obs Completed]@row <= 0.75, "Blue", 
IF([% Obs Completed]@row <= 0.99, "Yellow")))))

2.

=IF([Total # Obs]@row = "", "", [# Obs Completed]@row / [Total # Obs]@row)

Did that work/help?

I hope that helps!

Be safe and have a fantastic week!

Best,

Hi Andree,

Thank you very much. The formulla works well. I converted it to % completed by multiplying by 100, i.e*100. The only issue I am having is that the columns are displaying INVALID wherever its not populated (see attached).

The modified formulla used are:

1. Under Status: =IF([% Obs Completed]@row = "", "", IF([% Obs Completed]@row = 100, "Green", IF([% Obs Completed]@row <= 50, "Red", IF([% Obs Completed]@row <= 75, "Blue", IF([% Obs Completed]@row <= 99, "Yellow")))))
2. Under % Obs completed =IF([Total # Obs]@row = "", "", [# Obs Completed]@row / [Total # Obs]@row) * 100

Grateful for assistance to remover INVALID when the cells are blanked,

Excellent!

You're more than welcome!

I'd be happy to take a quick look.

Can you maybe share the sheet(s)/copies of the sheet(s)? (Delete/replace any confidential/sensitive information before sharing) That would make it easier to help. (share too, andree@workbold.com)

I've updated the formula.

Did it work?

Vinton Douglas

Hi Andree,

Thanks much. it worked on the one you edited. But instead of getting 80% , the % completed reflects 0.8 even when i copy the formulla you created. How do I get this to represent % instead of a fraction?
