I don’t know if this is possible to do - but if so would be of huge value to me. My Challenge: I have records in Airtable that contain ‘Media Bookings’ for advertising campaigns As an example: Campaign: Launch Site: Youtube booked Impressions: 1000000 Media Cost: $15000 Start Date: 01/10/2022 End Date: 31/12/2022 I need to easily convert this information into ‘Week commencing’ detail so that I can prorata the impressions and cost based on weeks of the campaign e.g. W/C 03rd October, 10th October Value of doing this: this would help significantly with monitoring pacing of campaigns, and suporting accurate invoicing of costs to clients Is there a way of doing this within Airtable… thank you so much for your help!!!

I need to compare two date fields to get a specific result. I am not an expert at Airtable, so my explanation isn’t very good :). My base is for tracking training. I need to mark a month “excused” if a person’s hire date is after the meeting date and then mark the month as completed or missed if their hire date is before the meeting date. The hire date is 9/1/2022, and the meeting date is 10/1/2022. That person is required to complete the monthly program. Any suggestions on a formula? - Wendy in Michigan.

Continuing the discussion from No More Static URLs for Attachments?: No More Static URLs for Attachments? But I’ve now lost hope that this WON’T happen if we complain enough… I head back from the support team who said they would share my concerns with the product team… I do believe in miracles… Ha ha! I guess you got your wish (for a while anyway).

Hi, I am trying to fill in a field with the content of 5 other fields separated by an underscore. I manage to get Field1_Field2_Field3_Field4_Field5 but if one or more of the fields are empty I get a consecutive underscores like this: Field1__Field3_ Is there a way I can tell airtable not to include the underscores that would be followed by empty fields?

I need to be able to check and see if a certain time has passed in a formula field, and I don’t think I’m doing this right. My pseudocode is: If now is past 10:30am today, then 1, otherwise 0 What would be the best way to go about this?

Hello, I’m trying to find a way to get a cumulative sum from the last 30 days that needs to be updated daily. This is all I have at the moment. (PS: The numbers on the left are IDs.)

Hello, I’m trying to write a formula to detect if there is a duplicate record, ignoring a few columns. I’m not very good with formulas, but I imagine it’d be two if statements, which if correct I’d like it to highlight the row red? There’s probably a more intuitive way. I think with the if statements it might not pick up duplicate numbers that are on the same row? Thanks!

Hey there, I’m looking up a duration formatted formula field from multiple records. The result of the lookup looks like this “4:24, 6:00, 6:31”. Is there a way to reference and DATETIME_FORMAT this in a formula field and get a similar output format? I cannot figure it out and get a zero value or the underlying seconds.

Hello, I need some help. I’m not a formula expert but I’m trying to determine the amount of time between 4 dates. In a nutshell, I know how to already determine the time between 2 dates *ONLY but I need to figure out how to get the formula to compute for multiple dates as listed in the formula and pictures below. Any assistance you can provide would be great! This is for managing a team of volunteers who sometimes come in and come out (pause and restart based on their availability). Thanks, James

I think this is pretty simple? I would like to set a formula on a checkbox so that, when the value of another field changes, the checkbox is checked. OR, when field “Money” changes value, a separate field returns a value of “Print”. Then I have an extension set to print records with the “Print” value. Would appreciate help. Thank you!

I have 4 columns in my table, each containing numbers. In the Formula column called ‘Above Threshold’ I’m trying to create a formula that says if any of the values across the 4 columns is >100 output ‘Above’ and if <=100 output ‘Below’. So something like this IF(({Total users (last 30d)},{Total users (prev 30d)},{Total users (last 90d-120d)},{Total users (last 120d-150d)},)>100, "Above", "Below") That formula doesn’t work, so is there a way of doing it without using nested IF statements?

Hello Everyone, I am a gallery assistant and trying to convince my director to move to Airtable! However, I meet some issues, hope anyone can kindly help me. So there will be two groups of product prices, one is (A+B), and the other one will be the amount we type in. Can the formula do something like If(Checkbox=1, “{A+B}”, “manual enter”) or something like this? Sorry really bad at this. Hope anyone can give me some ideas about this

What is the formula I input if i’m looking to create a new field that calculates days since a Record ID was tagged with a specific label in a specific column/field?

I am trying to create and if and statement for one field being empty and the other being filled. My fields Problem Category Closed Date Closed date always needs to be filled for me to provide a return to my field Charge Type. If the problem category is blank then I need to return “Marketable”. If the problem category is filled then I need to return “Problem”. I have tried multiple If And statements always getting an error or undesirable result. The latest one I have gotten is as follows If (And( Problem Category = BLANK(), Closed Date != BLANK()), “Marketable”, “Problem”)

Hi all, I have a sheet of stock data that was too large for excel, so I decided to move it all over to Airtable. But I’m having trouble with one of the formulas I was using. In excel I’m using the FILTER formula that looks across the column headers (dates) to return the price that relates to a date I enter in another cell. For example, you can see in the image below, I entered the date of 10/11/12 in B2, and with my filter formula in K2 =FILTER(L2:O2,L1:O1=B2) it returns the price that is in N2 (as N1 matches the date I entered in B2). I see in Airtable there is a formula field type, but I don’t know how to replicate what I’m trying to do in excel… Any help would be much appreciated!

I have a payroll base that my workers fill out a form and then they submit a role (Main photo, Main video, 2nd shooter) I have a set rate for each role in each wedding that is literally different for each one. How can I structure a IF statement to dynamically pull the right amount to calculate how much they are owed from the job?

Hi, going off of my previous topic about gardening in “How can I use a formula for the below data?” I am wondering if there is a way to mark a row to show that I missed the target date for the plantings. Say like my target date is 11/20/22 but I didn’t get around to it till the 23rd. Is there a way to make it automatically color or trigger that row saying that I went over that date? Thanks.

Hi, so I am trying to make a formula that fits my gardening schedule for the upcoming spring season. I have the pro plan if that makes a difference in what I am limited to do. Here’s an live example of the problem I am having so far. I will plant my cilantro seeds on 3/22/23. It takes 4 weeks till harvest. So I have 4/12/2023 as the ending date. I will need two other harvest date’s after that. The problem is that I need formulas for each plant which is a total of 40. They all have different dates and different weeks till harvest. Would I need different formulas for an auto-fill each time I put seeds into the ground or am I able to create conditions for it to all work? Thanks.

Heyy everyone, I wonder if you can help, I am not the best at Airtable so rely mostly on learning as I go and your threads. I currently have several columns which count the time(days) between Date 1 and Date 2 but now I am looking to make it exclude a list of public holidays, currently, it just measures working days. So this is the formula currently - IF(OR({DATE 1} = BLANK(),{Date 1}<{Date 2}), BLANK(), MAX(WORKDAY_DIFF({Date 2},{Confirmed Date 1})-1,0)) But I can not seem to figure out how to make this formula not count the below, I’d have to implement this into several columns with similar formulas ! 01/01/2021 02/04/2021 05/05/2021 31/05/2021 30/08/2021 27/12/2021 28/12/2021 03/01/2022 15/04/2022 18/04/2022 02/05/2022 02/06/2022 03/06/2022 29/08/2022 19/09/2022 26/12/2022 27/12/2022 02/01/2023 07/04/2023 10/04/2023 01/05/2023 29/05/2023 28/08/2023

Hello everyone. I’m love to use Airtable everymonth to publish invoice and user’s portal. Well, I found a problem with “rounddown” calculate. When I input the date like following, the result was not correct.

And I also checked with calc app, the result was 7385 also. I can’t understand why it doesn’t work the same. And I’d like to fix it ASAP. Please help me…

Hi We would really appreciate some assistance with one of our formula fields. Background - also see screenshot: In our first column, we have a date field called “Lifetime Last Payment”, which we manually complete. In our second column, we have a formula field called “Lifetime Next Payment” with the following formula: IF({Lifetime Last Payment}=BLANK(),BLANK(), DATEADD({Lifetime Last Payment},1,“months”)) Which automatically calculates by taking the date from “Lifetime Last Payment” and adding one month. Our third column has a formula field called ” Lifetime Payment Status” with the following formula: IF({Lifetime Next Payment}<=TODAY(),“ :triangular_flag_on_post: Change Last Payment date”, BLANK()) In our fourth column, we have another formula field called “Final Lifetime Instalment Date”, which calculates the final date of payment for each individual line based on the instalment criteria. Requirement: We need

Good morning, I want to know the current record to use with a button script, so I use “let record = await input.recordAsync(‘’, tableRC);” It works well but the execution (even by the button of course) displays the record content on the dashboard scripting window !!

Hello, I have a formula in an excel sheet that fills a column with a corresponding value based on the drop-down selected in another column. I’ve made this work in Airtable however it will not allow me to format the data as currency since it is saying that the information returned is not a number- which it is. The formula is: IF({Interactive Type}=“”,“$0.00”,IF({Service Provider}=“Other”,“$0.00”,IF({Service Provider}=“Affiliated”,“$6.00”,IF({Service Provider}=“Numera”,“$5.50”,IF({Interactive Type}=“Cameras Only”,“$0.00”,IF({Interactive Type}=“”,“$0.00”,IF({Interactive Type}=“Basic Interactive”,“$1.25”,IF({Interactive Type}=“Basic Automation”,“$2.00”,IF({Interactive Type}=“LTE Interactive”,“$2.75”,IF({Interactive Type}=“LTE Automation”,“$3.50”,IF({Interactive Type}=“Other”,“$0.00”))))))))))) Is there any way to adjust this so that the result returned is identified by Airtable as a number so that I can use it in further calculations down the sheet?
