Can someone help my brain wrap around this type of formula?

I’m trying to get different amounts to populate based on what is selected in a different field. For example)

Field 1 is State

Trying to get Field 2 to calculate: if Field 1 is Missouri, then Field 2 should equal $2.00, OR If Field 1 is Illinois, then Field 2 should equal $1.00

Hi @Leah_Huelsing,


How manny variables do you have in the State field?


I think a Switch formula would be better since you dont have a “Formula” that needs calculations.


So it would be SWITCH({State}, “Illinois”, 1, “Missouri”, 2)


Since in typing from my phone, the quotation marks are not correct, please change them in your formula to the correct ones)


Hope that helps.
