Invalid Operation

Ellie M

I am trying to have stoplights populate based off of the data entered in certain columns. I have double checked that the column is set up with the spotlight formatting, but for some reason I am getting the below error still. It is working for Green, but all the other colors are giving me an error. See below.

Hi @Ellie M

I hope you're well and safe!

Not sure I follow! What error are you getting? Can you elaborate?

Be safe and have a fantastic week!

I am getting an #INVALID OPERATION error when the value is lower than 7.

I believe you're using the AND() function incorrectly. You have the specify the column/row for each value being checked.

Try this...

=IF(Appearance@row >= 7, "Green",

IF(AND(Appearance@row >= 6, Appearance@row < 7), "Blue",

IF(AND(Appearance@row >= 5, Appearance@row < 6), "Yellow", "Red")))
