Hello, I’m Phil

And I’m working for a video production company.

We create video for others companies, all the production follow up is made with airtable.


I’m working on a formula that can increment a cell (0,1,2,3)

if specific date cells are filled


let’s illustrate my use case

I need to log the delivery date of video production (SLA are calculated using those dates)



  • if {v1} is empty = work in progress = 0

  • if {v1} contains a date = done = 1

  • if {v2} contains a date = correction done = 2

  • if {v3} contains a date = re-correction done = 3

    then I’d like to use that “increment calculation” to calculate my production costs using another formula

    {unit_cost}*{increment_calculation}

    something like that.


Tell me what’s your advices 🙂

thanks

Hi @Phil_Ravier


This can all be done in a single formula, unless you have some other compelling reason to keep them separate.


IF({v3}, 3, IF({v2}, 2, IF({v1}, 1, 0))) * {unit_cost}

By ordering the conditions in reverse like this, you ensure that the highest possible multiplier is applied.
