Formulas

Hi! Is it possible to compare single and multi-select fields across columns in one table? Would a formula be able to do this? I have a single select field listing the launch month for content. Then there are 2 lookup fields with the launch months for connected content (each with multiple months selected). Ideally, I want to compare the single select field to the 2 lookup fields and output anything that is after the single select field month. Would these fields need to be dates rather than single or multi-select fields for this to work? If so, is there a way for multiple dates to exist in one field? Or is there another way to do this? Thank you!

Hi All, I’m in the process of creating a catalog of related books that I can hopefully email out to customers, and, so far, that’s involved creating an Entries rollup field in my Catalogs table that pulls from my Books table using the ARRAYUNIQUE(values) aggregation formula. I did as much formatting as possible in the Books table, adding caps with UPPER() and spaces with \n, but I can’t figure out how to eliminate the comma after each rollup field item. I tried this: SUBSTITUTE (ARRAYUNIQUE (values), “,”, " + ") But I kept getting “Sorry, there was a problem saving this field. Please check your formula text.” I’ll add a screenshot here so you can see what I’m talking about and why I’d want to eliminate the comma . . . Thanks in advance for your suggestions!

Hey Guys, first time here. Airtable support forwarded me here. I need your help. I have a such formula: IF( {routine type}=‘daily’, DATEADD({task date}, 1, ‘days’), IF( {routine type}=‘weekly’, DATEADD({task date}, 7, ‘days’), IF( {routine type}=‘bi-weekly’, DATEADD({task date}, 14, ‘days’), IF( {routine type}=‘monthly’, DATEADD({task date}, 30, ‘days’) ) ) ) ) and I would like to combine it with something like this: IF( WEEKDAY({next date})=0, DATEADD({next date}, 1, ‘days’), IF( WEEKDAY({next date})=6, DATEADD({next date}, 2, ‘days’), {next date} ) ) Can you help me, please? The first formula creates new task depending on the routine type. Weekly routine, monthly routine, etc. The second formula should move the task to the Monday if the first formula lands task on the Saturday or Sunday. Appreciate your help. Jack

Hello community I was wondering if you could help me. I want to make a formula that shows me the emoji “ :white_check_mark: ” if the names and emails are in the contact fields, otherwise it shows me “ :x: ” but I don’t know what I’m doing wrong in my formula. Could you help me?

Hello- Any help on not showing negative days here, just show if the number is negative, it says zero? IF({DESIGN DUE DATE}=“”,‘’, CONCATENATE(DATETIME_DIFF({DESIGN DUE DATE}, {TODAY’S DATE},‘days’), ’ Days ')) Thank you!

Hi everyone! This is my first post in the Airtable community, and I have quite the ask. I need to create a formula that is able to look across four different fields in the same table, and check if those fields have one of two particular values (Let’s say the possible values are ‘Complete’ and ‘None’). If all four fields have either ‘Complete’ or ‘None’ at the same time in the same row, I want the formula to print ‘Yes’. If any of the four fields have a value other than ‘Complete’ or ‘None’, then the formula should NOT print ‘Yes’. I have tried using a combination of IF, OR, & AND statements, but this has proven to be quite the formula, and I am not the most experienced coder. My reason for this request is that I want to be able to filter off the value this formula creates, that way I can see all of the tasks in my base that are in progress. I hope this makes sense, any input is appreciated!!!

Hello all! I am trying to compile a formula that dynamically spits out a value based on the values in 2 other static data fields, the first being an Additional Authors Count that counts the number of authors that exist on a record and the second field being a deliverable field. The end goal of this formula is to compute a number amount that a freelancer should get paid based on completely specific deliverables and taking into account the number of authors on said project they worked on. For example: If a freelancer works on a project deliverable of content calls and they do so on a project with an author count of 2 additional authors, I want the formula to be able to spit out a number based on those two external values and the static values that live in said formula. I’ve been able to get this far, but now need to somehow add in the deliverable field condition so that if the deliverable is Content Calls and Additional Author is 1 then add 1000 to the existing multi aut

Hi! This one seems quite easy, but having a tough time to loop LEFT and RIGHT to make it work … I have the following examples 5-DBR_4.JPG 5-GD-WHI_1.jpg In both instances, I want to extract the text between the “_” and the “.JPG”, so “4” and “1” respectively. This is to populate an {Position} field. What is the right formula to use for this?

I have tried the solution suggested here but cannot seem to get it to function, as it returns a -1. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Hey people, please help me here. I am building a new house and I need to understand pricing for all items we need to buy. To clarify, here is an example: Here I need the fiels "M2 from Walls"to show a sum of the size of all walls on the multiple select column. My objective is for example: When I add a new price for wall painting’s square meter I can multiply this price to all walls on my multiple select field. So, If a square meter of wallpaper is $10 And I have a room with 20 sqm and another with 30 sqm It would give me 50sqm * $10 So the sum of that room’s cost would be $50 Makes sense? Can you guys help me please? Thanks a lot

Hey, everyone! I’m having a really tough time tracking down the issue here. I have two forms, both of which have a field that I’d like prefilled. The facts are: 2 tables: (Companies, Vehicles). Entries in Vehicles are linked to a Company. Each company has a gallery view, filtered to only show vehicles in that company. The primary unique field in Vehicles is the VIN. 2 forms, 1 for each of 2 unique companies, and the field names are the same on each form. The VIN field on the form is linked to the gallery of the respective company, thereby constraining to only those company’s vehicle’s VINs to be selectable. When I fire up form 1 for company 1, no problem! The VIN is pre-selected without issue and works exactly as described in link_records_form_demo - airtable. No issues whatsoever. When I

After through the documentation on DATETIME_PARSE() I’m not seeing the timezone respected when used in conjunction with either SET_LOCALE() or SET_TIMEZONE() for conversion of a string field containing date and time information. What am I missing here:

I am analyzing data from an evaluation form where all field are mandatory. When reporting them using Page Designer I want to omit any entries where the person has typed n/a (with any combination of capital or lowercase letters). My first thought was that there needs to be an IF statement in there some where, but where? Currently I have: ARRAYJOIN(ARRAYCOMPACT(value), “/n/n”)

I have the following phone number +33661291700, do you know a formula that converts it to a US phone number? (e.g: (415) 555-2671) Thank you

Hello All, I am trying to convert a concatenated text cell into various records, split by the semi-column. Ideally, an automation would somehow split the cell contents so I can return the linked lookup value for both Optimisers, and Double Storey and their relevant costs in another lookup column. Is there a way I can split the contents into separate records for the pricing data column?

Quick question, I need the Item Description to not be blank at all times (I need to see it in the primary field regardless), the way this is set up - the task needs to be selected to make the Item Description appear, thoughts? IF( AND( {ITEM DESCRIPTION}, {TASK TYPE}, NOT( {TASK NAME} ) ), {ITEM DESCRIPTION} & " - " & {TASK TYPE}, IF( AND( {ITEM DESCRIPTION}, {TASK TYPE}, {TASK NAME} ), {ITEM DESCRIPTION} & " - " & {TASK TYPE} & ": " & {TASK NAME} ) )

I have a “Lookup” field that shows me many values ​​in the same field according to the tab relationship. For example: It is related to a field called orders, the lookup shows a field with the number of orders, and the next lookup shows the month in which they were made, but it shows me the same repeated many times, (July, July, July, August, July , August). What I need is a formula that breaks me down and shows me only the months (July, August).

Hey all. I’m following this tutorial on auto calculating the end date based on the start date. I got it all working, but would like to include Saturday as a working day (so only exclude Sundays). I’m sure this is simple but keep getting errors in my formula. Here is the formula I’m working with which is based on the standard workday schedule: IF(AND({Start date},{Duration (days)}),WORKDAY({Start date},{Duration (days)})){Duration (days)} Thank you!

Hello everybody! I hope everyone is doing well. I was trying to create a system where we have a due date for a item (in this case a bill), and then have a single select field with options to say how often we have to pay it. I then thought it would be great if I didn’t have to change the due date and that is done automatically. However the formula I created isn’t correctly adding the days based on what I have in the single select field. It defaults to the first if statement. My formula: IF(Frequency,“weekly”,DATETIME_FORMAT(DATEADD({Due Date},7,‘Day’),‘MM/DD/YYYY’),IF(Frequency,“bi-weekly”,DATETIME_FORMAT(DATEADD({Due Date},2,‘week’),‘MM/DD/YYYY’))) Note: This is not all the option but I figured it was a problem with the structure and not the options. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

In the Client table I have the Meetings field, linked to Meeting table. A client can have multiple meetings. I need to know, if a client has any two meetings closer to each other, then 1 month. If the difference between any two dates is less then a month – formula must return “often”. Help me please! I can’t figure out…

Hi all, Having an issue using the WORKDAY function. Here’s what I’m trying to do: I’m trying to create training schedule that automatically calculates the date of each training day, based on the start date and the day of training. EG If start date is Monday Aug 1, 2022 and we’re on training day 5, then the training date should be Aug 5, 2022. I’ve set the start date for each record to Aug 1, 2022 and the formula works beautifully until I get to training day 5, which should return as Aug 5, 2022. Instead Aug 7, 2022 is returned (a Sunday). This pattern continues, skipping Friday’s and including Sundays. Any advice?

Hi, I have designed an email in Sendgrid that I want to send to a filtered list of jobseekers in a table. This HTML references fields from a linked field and its associated lookup fields. E.g. I need it to display information from another table called ‘Open projects’. When I paste the HTML into the Sendgrid editor (Send as HTML is turned on) the first field from the linked field displays, but the other fields don’t, even though I have checked that the field is in the table and being referenced correctly. This is displayed in the screenshot above, whereby the ‘Name of opportunity’ is pulling through, but the other fields are not. Here is a link to the HTML file: Sendgrid Email Template HTML.txt - Google
