% Complete Based on Child Conditions Met

Smartsheet Community:

I Need to Add to The Formula Below to Calculate % Complete Only if it is a Pass, Fail, or Not Applicable.

=ROUND(IF(COUNTIF(DESCENDANTS(), 1) / COUNT(DESCENDANTS()) > 0, COUNTIF(DESCENDANTS(), 1) / COUNT(DESCENDANTS()), 0) * 100, 0) + "%"

Below is a Screen Shot of what I am Trying to Accomplish.

Thanks

You would use an IF statement like so:

=IF(OR(............................), run_%_formula)

=IF(OR([Test Status]@row = "Pass", [Test Status]@row = "Fail", [Test Status]@row = "Not Applicable"), ROUND(IF(COUNTIF(DESCENDANTS(), 1) / COUNT(DESCENDANTS()) > 0, COUNTIF(DESCENDANTS(), 1) / COUNT(DESCENDANTS()), 0) * 100, 0) + "%")

I am Receiving Circular Reference

I Removed the 1 and Change the Count if to Count because the Original Formula was Looking for a Checkbox. However, I am Still Receiving Circular Reference.

Modified Formula to Look For & Calculate For Only For Pass, Fail, and Not Applicable:

=IF(OR([Test Status]@row = "Pass", [Test Status]@row = "Fail", [Test Status]@row = "Not Applicable"), ROUND(COUNTIF(DESCENDANTS() / COUNT(DESCENDANTS()), COUNT(DESCENDANTS()) / COUNT(DESCENDANTS())) * 100, 0) + "%")

Where exactly are you putting the formula, and do you mean that the COUNTIF portions should only take into account those different Statuses?

The Formula will Be in the Test Status Column Row 1 (Parent Cell). It Should Count All The Status and Calculate The Total %. Therefore if Any of Those Statuses (Pass, Fail, Not Applicable) Appear, The Formula Should Count it and Display The %

The Question I am Answering is What % of Test have Been Executed and the Those 3 Status is The Criteria for Completion.

@Paul Newcome I have Been trying to Adjust this Formula to Look at the Child Statuses to Calculate the % Complete, but Unsuccessful. Any idea what I am doing wrong?

@Paul Newcome I Think I am Close. I am Counting All Children or Descendants that are Not Blank and it Should Calculate % Complete for Pass, Fail, & Not Applicable Statuses Only. Can you Take a look at my Formula and See why I am Still Getting Circular Reference Below?

=IF(OR([Test Status]@row = "Pass", [Test Status]@row = "Fail", [Test Status]@row = "Not Applicable"), ROUND(IF(COUNTIF(DESCENDANTS(), @cell = "Pass", @cell = "Fail", @cell = "Not Applicable") / COUNT(DESCENDANTS()) <> "", COUNTIF(DESCENDANTS(), <>"") / COUNT(DESCENDANTS()), 0) * 100, 0) + "%")

As Reference My Original Formula is Calculating Based on the Child or Descendant Checkbox:

=ROUND(IF(COUNTIF(DESCENDANTS(), 1) / COUNT(DESCENDANTS()) > 0, COUNTIF(DESCENDANTS(), 1) / COUNT(DESCENDANTS()), 0) * 100, 0) + "%"

If you are putting the formula in the [Test Status] column then you cannot reference [Test Status]@row.

You Are Right! I Should Change it to Children and @row to @ cell, correct?

Paul Newcome

You don't need the @cell reference with hierarchy based functions. You should be able to just use CHILDREN and DESCENDANTS.

OK, like this?

ROUND(IF(COUNTIF(DESCENDANTS(), "Pass", "Fail", "Not Applicable")) / COUNT(DESCENDANTS()) <> "", COUNTIF(DESCENDANTS(), "Pass", "Fail", "Not Applicable") / COUNT(DESCENDANTS()), <>"") * 100, 0) + "%")

Paul Newcome

Yes, but the criteria that you are wanting to count for needs to be nested in an OR statement.

OR(@cell = "Pass", @cell = "Fail", @cell = "Not Applicable")

Received Incorrect Argument:

=ROUND(IF(COUNTIF(DESCENDANTS(), OR(@cell = "Pass", @cell = "Fail", @cell = "Not Applicable") / COUNT(DESCENDANTS()) <> "", COUNTIF(DESCENDANTS(), OR(@cell = "Pass", @cell = "Fail", @cell = "Not Applicable") / COUNT(DESCENDANTS()), <>"") * 100, 0) + "%"))

Paul Newcome

You will need to adjust your closing parenthesis. You are closing out the OR function but not the COUNTIF.
