Hi,
I have a range of percentages and want to calculate the average. There are some #DIVIDEBYZERO cells within the range that will populate later on in the year. Is there a way to tell Smartsheet to ignore the #DIVEBYZERO? It is possible in Excel using an AverageIF formula. But I can't see how to do it in Smartsheet.
You can use the =ISERROR formula to return whatever you want when there is an error.

or you can use =iferror(formula, "post this if error, usually a 0 or double quotes for blank")
Is there a way I can use this and also tell the formula to display the average of the cells that do not have an error within them?
use the iferror where you are getting the #Divide By Zero issue not in your average formula.
Iferror(Current formula,"")
if there is an error the formula will output a blank. If there isn't an error your original formula will run. Then the average function you currently have will be correct, and you will remove the visible errors on your sheet.
Whatever formula you are using to get your average, put it within the =ISERROR brackets.
=ISERROR(Put your formula here, 0)
That will give you a 0 where there is an error.
I've created a dashboard with multiple graphs using data from the same report. I have added the report to the dashboard as well and set up the filter for use in the dashboard. Is this filter transferable to the graphs as well, given i can filter the report in the dashboard?
Dear Community, Can you please advise? I have a sheet where among other columns I have a column listing contacts "Champions" (multiple per cell) the other columns are for example: Countries (a list of 72) The list of Projects (approx 15) - I can add to that sheet, or I can create in a Helper Sheet. I haven't done that yet…
Looking for assistance again, I want to bring in the % complete from the Production sheet to the Schedule sheet, but once the % complete is 100 the data is moved to another sheet, so I would like to reference to check 1 sheet for percent complete and if it is not there check the second sheet. Schedule sheet: Pick Up Date…
