What am I missing?

Debbie Petersen · 12/06/21

Need to return a value based on which box is checked. Again - works individually but unparseable when combined.

Thank you again SS wiz people!

I hope you're well and safe!

Try something like this. (you had one "-" too many before the 90-Day part)

=
IF([30-day process begin]@row = 1, "30-Day", 
IF([60-day process begin]@row = 1, "60-Day", 
IF([90-day process begin]@row = 1, "90-Day", "-")))

Did that work/help?

I hope that helps!

Be safe and have a fantastic week!

Hi @Debbie Petersen do you have an example of the formula or screen shot?

Debbie Petersen · 12/07/21

Hi Neil - yes. Here's the scenario. If the box is check in the 30-day Process, I need the Type of Review column to reflect "30--Day", and so on if box is checked for 60 and 90 day columns. I do think I will need automation to clear the value in the prior column once the process is complete (ie - 30-day process is complete, clear value) that will allow the next checkbox to populate with either 60 or 90

Formulas: =IF([30-Day Process Begin]@row, "30-Day", "-")

=IF([60-Day Process Begin]@row, "60-Day", "-")

Hi @Debbie Petersen ,

Looks like you're missing a criteria in your IF statements. Try this:

=IF ([30-day process begin]@row=1,"30-Day",if([60-day process begin]@row=1,"60-day","-"))

Hope this helps! Let me know if it works.

Best,

Heather

Hi Heather - it works great for the 2 you've shown. As soon as I add the next one for 90-Days, I get #incorrect argument:

=IF([30-Day Process Begin]@row = 1, "30-Day", IF([60-Day Process Begin]@row = 1, "60-Day", "-", IF([90-Day Process Begin]@row = 1, "90-Day", "-")))

Well there you go! I knew it would be something blindingly obvious! Thanks Andree! Works like a charm! Happy Holidays to you and hope you're well, too.
