Help: Formula Creation Request Please

Can someone help me by typing out what I hope is a simple formula? End result, when I update my "Status" column, I want it to enter the following amounts in my "% complete" column. FYI, Status is a drop down single choice column type. I will be so appreciative! I just don't time to figure it out by trial & error. Example below:


Pending PO Creation - 10%

Pending Shipment - 25%

Partially Received - 50%

Received Site - 100%

    Hello Collin

    1. Status Column in dropdown with your status
    2. % Complete use the format in your tool bars to set the format to percentage.
    3. Use nested IF Functions, using decimals for each status



    I hope it helps

    Thank you very much and I'm in business now. How exciting!! It worked this time and even better, the logic behind creating it makes sense now as well. It would be incredible if Smartsheet would make these (seemingly) simple tasks easier w/o the requirement for formulas. We have conditional formatting and to me, this is very similar. Thank you Rodolfo!
