    % in formula issue

    ✭
    in Formulas and Functions

    Good morning,

    I have a column which named "% Complete". The next column, I wrote:

    =IF([% Complete]@row = 100, "Complete", "Not Complete")

    That works if the % complete column is 100. But it doesn't work if I turn the "% Complete" column into a percentage format. How do I tweak my formula to state that if it's "100%", it's complete.

    If I add the % symbol:

    =IF([% Complete]@row = 100%, "Complete", "Not Complete") → unparseable

    Thanks all

      Hello @MBurdman

      I think the following formula will work for you - replacing 100 with 1 when your column is formatted as a percentage.

      =IF([% Complete]@row = 1, "Complete", "Not Complete")

      I hope that is helpful to you in someway,
