Add or Remove Text from Cell
I have an import from a system that looks like the below. I need to standardize the data in another row with either all prefix 'Nav-xxx' or all excluding 'Nav-'. Any idea how to do that???
Thanks in advance

Happy to help!
Did you paste my formulas?
Can you paste the formulas you used?
Looking at the sheet again, you should use this one.
- =SUBSTITUTE([Document Number]@row, "NAV-", "")

I hope you're well and safe!
Here are two options.
- =REPLACE([Document Number]@row, 1, 4, "")
- =SUBSTITUTE([Document Number]@row, "NAV-", "")
Would that work/help?
I hope that helps!
Be safe, and have a fantastic week!
