Multiple IF statements

UrbanNomad · 07/27/21

Hi Team,

I tried to follow the solution mentioned "regarding combining multiple IF statements", I get an Unparseable error.

My formula: =IF([PM Effectiveness]@row=🤩 Strongly Agree,"5",IF([PM Effectiveness]@row=🙂 Agreed,"4",IF([PM Effectiveness]@row=😐 Neutral,"3",IF([PM Effectiveness]@row=😞 Disagree,"2",IF([PM Effectiveness]@row=😡 Strongly Disagree,"1")))))

What Am I missing?

@UrbanNomad

I only corrected your formula structure. I didn't have time to look at it in detail.

Have a look below. Isn't that what you need? Can you describe how you'd want it to work?

Can you describe your process in more detail and maybe share the sheet(s)/copies of the sheet(s) or some screenshots? (Delete/replace any confidential/sensitive information before sharing) That would make it easier to help. (share too, andree@workbold.com)

=IF([PM Effectiveness]@row="🤩 Strongly Agree",5,

IF([PM Effectiveness]@row="🙂 Agreed",4,

IF([PM Effectiveness]@row="😐 Neutral",3,

IF([PM Effectiveness]@row="😞 Disagree",2,

IF([PM Effectiveness]@row="😡 Strongly Disagree",1)

Hi @UrbanNomad

Hope you are fine, i don't know from where you select this set of symbol but i assume you are trying to use the following set so i create this formula for you:

=IFERROR(IF([PM Effectiveness]@row = "No Pain", 5, IF([PM Effectiveness]@row = "Mild", 4, IF([PM Effectiveness]@row = "Moderate", 3, IF([PM Effectiveness]@row = "Severe", 2, IF([PM Effectiveness]@row = "Very Severe", 1, IF([PM Effectiveness]@row = "Extreme", 0)))))), "")

The following screenshots show what symbol set i select and the result of the formula:

Hi @UrbanNomad

I hope you're well and safe!

Try something like this.

=IF([PM Effectiveness]@row="🤩 Strongly Agree",5,IF([PM Effectiveness]@row="🙂 Agreed",4,IF([PM Effectiveness]@row="😐 Neutral",3,IF([PM Effectiveness]@row="😞 Disagree",2,IF([PM Effectiveness]@row="😡 Strongly Disagree",1)))))

Did that work/help?

I hope that helps!

Be safe and have a fantastic week!

Best,

@Andrée Starå This did not help, it gave 5 ratings for all the rows, there are few "Agreed" in my sheet.

@Andrée Starå Never mind, I tried once again, it worked, thanks a lot for the prompt response, I'm curious what was missing in my formula?

@UrbanNomad

Excellent!

You're more than welcome!

Here's the difference. (In each part, you didn't have the "surrounding the text but on the numbers) When you put it around numbers, it's read as text. And when it's not around text, it doesn't work.

=IF([PM Effectiveness]@row=🤩 Strongly Agree,"5"

=IF([PM Effectiveness]@row="🤩 Strongly Agree",5,
