Balls Changing Colors

Hello,

Why is the signal status color column populating a color when I have nothing in the value column? How do I stop this?

My current formula is

=IF(Value@row >= 90, "Green", IF(Value@row <= 84, "Red", IF(Value@row < 90, "Yellow")))

Thanks!!

    The blank cells are likely returning true as being less than or equal to 84… treated as 0. Try this:

    =IF(ISBLANK(Value@row), "", IF(Value@row >= 90, "Green", IF(Value@row <= 84, "Red", IF(Value@row < 90, "Yellow"))))
