Score Formulas

Marilu

I need help with a score formula. We are having a sales contest, 20 teams (Houses) to compete for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place.

I was able to use the MAX function to determine the highest score [ =MAX({total score}, {house}, [House Name]@row) ] and JOIN function for the name of the team with the highest score [ =JOIN(COLLECT([House Name]:[House Name], [Oct Team Score]:[Oct Team Score], MAX([Oct Team Score]:[Oct Team Score], " ")))) ].

I just can't get to identify the 2nd and 3rd place Houses score results.

Please help me!

Thanks!

Hi @Score

I hope you're well and safe!

Try something like this.

• Add a so-called helper column. You can name it Rank, and add the following formula to it, and fill it down the column.

=RANKEQ([Oct Team Score]@row, [Oct Team Score]:[Oct Team Score])

• The use this formula in the Top Team and modify for 2 place and so on.

=INDEX([House Name]:[House Name], MATCH(1, Ranking:Ranking, 0))

• Use the following formula to collect the scores.

=INDEX([Oct Team Score]:[Oct Team Score], MATCH(1, Ranking:Ranking, 0))

Did that work/help?

I hope that helps!

Be safe and have a fantastic day!

Hi Andre,

I am doing well and thank you for your help!

I added the helper column, that works fine, but the function to find the Top Team does not. Index function has this error "Unparseable", I believed that the Ranking:Ranking portion of the formula was the issue. So, I changed it to look at the Oct Team Score column but it gives me a #NO MATCH error.

Thoughts?

Thank you!! Hope you are well.
