I’d like to create a calculated field that should count the total amount of “checked” checkboxes on a record. Is it possible?

I am looking for some help calculating a graduated sales commission in Airtable. The sales commission is calculated at a rate of twenty-five percent (25%) on the part of the sale price up to and including $25,000; plus twenty percent (20%) on the part of the sale price over $25,000 and up to and including $100,000; plus fifteen percent (15%) on the part of the sale price over $100,000. If the sale price is $150,000, then the commission is 25% of the first $25,000, then 20% on the amount from $25,001-$100,000, then 15% on the amount from $100,001-$150,000. If the sale price is $5,000, then the commission is 25% of $5,000. The commission structure is visualized like this: Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

I have a forecasting sheet pulled from our CRM. The sheet lists various deals underway, each sitting at one of 8 stages: Contract Negotiation Terms Negotiation Proposal - Sent Proposal - In Progress Evaluating and Planning a) Evaluating and Planning b) Proposal Sent c) Contract Negotiations Our CRM applies a probability of closing at each stage, but doesn’t place that in any column that I can export, so I have added a formula field to apply that. (Pic 1) As part of our forecasting process, our BDs will review the deals and if the CRM assigned probability is different than they think it should be, they can enter that. A percentage field called {Probability per BD} Lastly, I have a field column to display the CRM % or overwrite it with the BD’s %. (pic2)

Ok, not sure I wrote the title of this topic clearly so here’s an explanation. I have “duration” data imported into Airtable in an ISO 8601 format (just into a normal long text field, more on that below). An example of this format is PT1H30M15S which is equal to 1 Hour 30 Minutes and 15 Seconds of time. PT stands for “Period of Time” for those curious. Problem: I am trying to get the ISO 8601 formatted data into airtable’s “Duration” field but the formatting does not seem to be 1:1. Using the above example, pasting “PT1H30M15S” into an airtable Duration field gives 3:36:55 instead of the expected 1:30:15. I assume this is partially why I had to import this data into a long text field and couldn’t get it to work out the box with the duration field. Can anyone help me figure out how to properly convert my data into Airtable’s duration field format? I have a feeling it’s going

So we’re about to hit our max capacity for our Base. I wanted to delete some older records from some of the tables, but they all contain dates/formulas/autonumbers, pretty much the staple of most databases/spreadsheets, and according to the error message I get, records containing “computed fields” cannot be deleted. so Airtable’s response of “to free up additional space, simply delete some older records” would never work for anyone in most circumstances. How on earth do we delete records, Airtable??

Hey everyone! this is my first post here, hope that’s the right place, and thanks in advance :slightly_smiling_face: I have a table that is synced to a Google Drive folder, adding new records each time files are added. I want to write a formula that numbers the files in each folder in a new column, so for example if I have 5 records of a folder named “test” I’ll have a column counting 1,2,3,4,5 in the new records created. when a new folder is added, I want the count to begin from 1 again. Is that possible? Again - thank you so much, everyone!

I am trying to create a reminder function in Airtable that will populate a field in a record with a “remind me” time based on a selection from a previous field. Then, when that field is equal to the date and time, I will have a “last modified time” update and run a Zap in Zapier to send a reminder. Here is the formula I am using to try and populate the date/time for the reminder to run. It works for “At due date/time” and “10 minutes before”. However, any intervals beyond those two are not populating the formula field at all. The spelling is correct between the formula and the trigger selection menu. Is there something in my formula making it run wrong? IF({Remind Me When}=“At due date/time”,{Due Date},IF({Remind Me When}=“10 minutes before”,DATEADD({Due Date},-10,‘minutes’,IF({Remind Me When}=“30 minutes before”,DATEADD({Due Date},-30,‘minutes’,IF({Remind Me When}=“1 hour before”,DATEADD({Due Date},-1,‘hours’,IF({Remind Me When}=“2 hours before”,DATEADD({Due Date},-2,‘hours’

Hello! I would like to create groups based on a “contains” value in a text field. Since this is not an available option, I think I am going to need to use a formula to create a field that I can group by. Objective: Create a conditional formula that will select a drop-down based on conditions. Sample Data: What I would like to happen: If Campaign Name contains “PF_MU30_Weekly” Change Email Type to “Weekly” If Campaign Name contains “PF_MU30_ReEngagement” change Email Type to “ReEngagement” If Campaign Name contains “PF_MU30_Engagement” change Email Type to “Engagement” From here then I can group by the Email Type field. Thank you for your help!

Hi, I am fairly new to Airtable and couldn’t find a solution to this here! I have a formula that does a division calulation using the output from a formula field and a linked field value. Here is my setup, I am getting #ERROR! in my calculation field. Here is my formula I have tried various combinations of using the VALUE() function but I can’t get it to work. Thanks in advance. John

Hey guys, Can you please suggest to me a formula that will remove a text after multiple characters ( ‘’,‘’ ‘’/‘’ ‘’ - ‘’ ‘‘and’’ ‘’&‘’ ‘’;‘’ ‘’(‘’. I already found on this Forum the formula that removes a text after one single character, LEFT( {Column name}, FIND( “-”, {Column name} )-1 ) Can you please advise me on how to add to this formula options for other characters, or maybe the new formula that will have a such workflow, thanks in advance :slightly_smiling_face:

i’m looking for a way to creat a formula that takesmy “date created field” date and translates it to the following: January = 1 February = 2 March = 3 April = 4 May = 5 June = 6 July = 7 August = 8 September = 9 October = O November = N December = D and then the Year with just the 2 digits. Examples: October 12th, 2003 = O03 September 3rd, 2014 = 914 January 27th 2018 = 118 February 19th 2021 = 221

Hi all! I have a question about a formula field. In one of my bases, I have time sheets with the following fields : Start (with date) - ‘‘Début affectation’’ End (with date) - ‘‘Fin affectation’’ Lunch break (total time in minutes) - ‘‘Période temps de repas’’ Total time (in minutes) - ‘‘Temps pour feuille’’ The Total time field has the following formula : DATETIME_DIFF({Fin affectation},{Début affectation},‘minute’) I can’t figure out what to put in the formula to substract the lunch time from the overall hours. Can someone help me? :slightly_smiling_face: Thank you!

Hi all, I’m trying to calculate a date based off the launch date that doesn’t exclude weekends (sat/sun) and holidays. I’ve figured out this formula that works but it’s not excluding weekends. Is there a way to exclude weekend dates from this formula below? DATETIME_FORMAT(DATEADD({Go-Live Date}, -8, ‘days’), ‘MM/DD/YY’) Thanks in advance! Bri

I have this formula to pull the time from a date/time column… DATETIME_FORMAT(SET_TIMEZONE({Submitted at}, ‘America/Chicago’),‘h:mm’) Is there a way to have AirTable recognize this as a number?

I’m trying to create an IF statement that would return a different result even if something matches the original criteria. I have Client ABC that doesn’t fit into the regular payment schedule, so I want the value “123” to be put as their payment and the have the rest of the clients calculated based on the formula. The problem is that Client ABC has values in each of the computed fields, so the value of those fields is being returned instead of 123. I’ve tried a variety of things without any luck. Thanks for anyone who can help! If this: IF({Client Name}=“ABC”),123) If not: IF({Payment Schedule}=“Annual”,IF({Contract Length}>=36, 5*{Field 1})) &IF({Payment Schedule}=“Annual”,IF({Contract Length}=24, 4*{Field 1}))

Hi Everyone, I am trying to build a simple PTO tracker for my team. I have my list of employees and I would like to add a column with a formula that create 1 PTO day per month but I dont have clue on how to do it. Any help on this please? Thanks!

Hi, I am trying to work out a way to make 3 tables to reference one another but can’t get it to work. I have 3 tables; People Planner Key Dates The ‘People’ table is a list of key people, each of which are tied into group (numbered 1 - 12). As a side note this is a single select as I want to be able to move the people around into different groups as I need using a Kanban view. The ‘Planner’ table has a Link to ‘People’ and pulls across various fields which are relevant to the planning of my project. At this point all is fine, everything updates accordingly in the planner table e.g. if I move person A to another group within the ‘People’ table that field automatically updates in the ‘Planner’ table. I have done this by having a formula in my primary field in ‘Planner’ which references the linked group field (the 1 - 12 I mention earlier) from ‘People’. The problem I have is Key Dates. Again they are organised by group (1 - 12)

Hi all, Quick one. I’m trying to build out a timeplanner to estimate when tasks are estimated to finish based on a start date/hour, and an estimated number of hours to complete. The formula I have so far distills down to days to make it compatible with the workday() function, but the function doesn’t seem to accept anything after the decimal point. i.e. 1.5 days as an input only increments by 1 day, only the whole integer value is used. Is there something I’m missing here, or is there another way to configure to correct this behaviour? Thanks in advance.

Hello :slightly_smiling_face: I have this formula to calculate Manpower/Days/Hours and a Rate into a dollar amount here: IF({MP/Day} > 0, {MP/Day} * Days * Hours * Rate,“0”) and it works! However it’s not being recognized by Airtable as a ## therefore I cannot get a sum, and it also doesn’t show commas when I’m using the field to generate totals in an interface. I figure I could play around with the formatting to get commas etc. but for the life of me I cannot figure out why it is not being recognized as a number that I can add up a total of? Thank you!

Hey AT Community! Is there a way to remove the tail ends from formulas in bulk? Example- I have 3 urls in 3 different rows: https://google.com/index?test https://yahoo.com/example?test https://apple.com/ending?test Using a formula (or something else) I’d like to get rid of the tails so that I am left with: https://google.com/ https://yahoo.com/ https://apple.com/ I feel like this should be possible? Appreciate any pointers!

Hello, I wonder if someone could perhaps help me with a formula I’m stuck on. I have a single select field with a number of products: Product 1; Product 2; Product 3; Product 4 etc. I also have a Premium (currency) field and a Commission (percentage) field. I’m looking at adding a Commission (currency) field with a formula that shows me the amount. However, some products are subject to tax at 12%, whereas others are not, and i want to get the commission amount after the tax has been deducted. How can I create this? e.g. IF Product = product 1, product 2, product 3, then (Premium * 0.88) * Commission, IF Product = Product 4, product 5, product 6, then Premium * Commission Thanks in advance

Hey folks, need some help with regex… I have the following information and I just need the first telephone number. Is there a way to extract the information from Tel to Tel-Nr? Only need the first phone number of each record

Hi there Is there a way I can tally the occurrences of a record within a column? For example, if I have a column called ‘colours’ and it has five reds, three blues and two yellows, how can I count these and disp[lay within a record (probably on another tab called ‘Calculations’)? Thank you in advance.
