Formulas

Hi everyone :slightly_smiling_face: I’m very new here and I’m still trying to learn this immense platform. I just attached the image of what I am working on. I would love Airtable to pick up the duration of each topic and update the start and end For example “hosting introduction” is 3 mins, starts at 12:00pm and finish at 12:03pm The next topic is “industry updates” and it will last 7 mins starting from 12:03 til 12:10. Does anyone know a formula that will calculate the time? Thank you so much to everyone who will read this :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Hello All! Not sure I should ask this question in Formulas. On a list of multiple versions of a same item I’d like to only display the last one. Here is what I have: Here what I wish to obtain: Thanks in advance!

Hello community, I have a problem that is when I scan a barcode with my tablet the following characters are displayed like this: 0096 UNIT0855 121F21 I would like it to be displayed like this: 0096UNIT0855121F21 So I would like a formula that allows me to do this task automatically. Could someone please help me?

Hi Everyone, I’ve come across an issue where I can’t seem to get the date to print the correct time within a formula. Please see example, I’ve stripped it down ot its bare bones. On the left is a date (and the time is correct). On the right is that date reprinted as a function. It appears to be an hour off. This is the formula for the function (simply reprinting the date): It also gives the same result (incorrect) if I set the time to my time zone, which is GMT. Any help appreciated

Hello, Trying to populate a single select based on text in another field. Sometimes I want it automatic, sometimes it needs to be manual, so a formula field alone isn’t appropriate. Currently running a nested IF formula, but I just need help with the syntax to make it choose X, Y, or Z from a single select field instead of printing it in the fomula field. Any help greatly appreciated. Thanks! The formula (which is working great for printing XYZ in the formula field): IF( SEARCH("x", {Column A}), "X", IF( SEARCH("y", {Column A}), "Y", IF( SEARCH("z", {Column A}), "Z" ) ) )

I am looking to create a formula where if my date field is between certain dates then my quarter field would tag appropriately. So if the date is between 10/01/21 - 12/31/21 then the field “Quarter” would say Quarter 4. If the date is between 1/1/22 - 4/1/22 then the field “Quarter” would say Quarter 1. I don’t if this can be done with formulas or if there is a better way to do this but would love any help/suggestions to automate the process of manually updating my quarter field.

Hi! I’m trying to display ‘Yes’ on records that fall between Monday and Sunday of the Previous week, no matter what day of the week it currently is. My code works, but only if it you’re looking at it on the Monday of this week, otherwise it’s off. IF( AND( IS_AFTER( {Completed Date}, DATEADD(TODAY(),-8,'days')), IS_BEFORE( {Completed Date}, DATEADD(TODAY(),-0,'days') ) ), 'Yes','No' ) I’ve also tried this, but again it has to be run on the Monday of the current week to be accurate… IF( AND( IS_AFTER( {Completed Date}, DATEADD(TODAY(), -8*(WEEKDAY(TODAY(), 'Monday')+1),'day') ), IS_BEFORE( {Completed Date}, DATEADD(TODAY(), 0-WEEKDAY(TODAY(), 'Monday'),'day') ) ), 'Yes','No' ) I Hope someone can help me out :slightly_smiling_face:

Hi all, The review process for our Creative team typically consists of two reviews prior to the final asset being uploaded to Airtable. Because of our review process, the Project Manager is responsible for assigning three due dates to each line item (asset) within the Creative table: V1 Due Date, V2 Due Date, Final Due Date. I would like to have the option to hide all three of the fields listed above and have a formula field that will display only the Next Due Date in a user friendly format. Please see below for the set up of the date columns mentioned with examples. The “Next Due Date” column is currently blank as I try to come up with this formula. A nested IF statement should do the trick, just haven’t yet figured it out! Any help is greatly appreciated!

Hi, i’m using Airtable to help my customers for refund. so the form on my website is working fine but i need to improve it. Customers enter their bank details. I would like to make sure that the key is correct. i have a huge formula in Excel and i want to know if it’s possible in airtable. thanks

I am using the switch formula to have Airtable populate a numerical value into a cell based upon the input chosen from a multiple select option. Prior to this I was typing the amounts in and it was working properly. Now I have set up the switch to populate the cell and it works and puts the correct number into the cell that the formula was pulling data from, But now I receive an error message in the end cells. Why is this? The cell the formula was pulling from previous has the same numerical values showing in the cells, it is just being generated by the switch formula instead of me inputting it into the cell. Thank you for any guidance.

Now I have got 2 tabs, the first one has a list of events, including the company name, event date and event notes (Each company could correspond to several events). In the second tab, I created a field called the most recent event, which filters all events for each company in tab 1 , and only show the most recent event of each company in tab 2(the name of this tab is Deal). Now I want to link the most recent event field back to tab 1, and only show the event note of the most recent event. My current formula is: IF({Date}={Most Recent Event (from Deal)}, Event Note) this formula seems right but doesn’t work, and the notification says that “most recent event (from deal)” cannot be found. How can I fix my formula to make it work?

Hey folks, I’m trying to calculate the number of days someone has worked in a job. I’m familiar with the DATETIME_DIFF() function, which works great when you have a Start Date and an End Date, but what if you don’t have an end date? In other words, imagine that someone is currently in their position, therefore the field registering their end date is empty. The theoretical solution I came up with is creating another field with the formula TODAY(), and then, if the field for end date is empty, use the field for today to calculate the difference between today and the start date, and calculate the time that the person has worked. I’m having trouble with the syntax! Any thoughts be greatly appreciated.

Hi all - need help! I have a Multiselection of “profiles” linked to a store. I then have items which may relate to one of those profiles. I need a formula to look at the “item profile” and see if it exists within the “store profile” multiselection - returning a simple true or false will work. I am hoping the below helps explain further

Hi there! I’m trying to do a fairly simple formula but it has quite a lot of conditions. I’m a beginner and not sure where I’m going wrong, could someone help? The board is a basic project overview. I’m trying to set a column to display “on track” or “overdue” depending on what the due date and status of the item is. My current formula is written like so: IF( AND(IS_BEFORE(Due,TODAY(), IF( OR( Status = “In Progress”, Status = “With Client”, Status = “Not yet started”, ), “Overdue!”, “On track” ))) Any help would be greatly appreciated! Meri

So I’ve gathered that I can’t use both AND and OR filters, but the workaround is to use formulas. Problem is, I can’t find a formula to solve my problem. I currently have two columns that I want to be able to filter, a “status” column and a “release date” column. This is the filter I want to set up: WHERE “release date” is on or after 14 days ago OR “release date” is empty AND “status” is not archived. Is this possible using formulas? Or are there too many layers? Thanks in advance for everyone’s help!

Hi there! There are a few formulas out here for similar-ish issues but I can’t find on that matches exactly what I need. I’m trying to create a formula that shows “Done” if the date is in the past, “Upcoming” if in the future or “In progress” if it’s on the day. The first two are working fine, but I can’t get it to show “In Progress”. It’s driving me insane as I can’t figure out why :frowning: IF( IS_AFTER({Live Date}, TODAY()), "✅Done✅", IF( {Live Date} = BLANK(), "🛑DATE NEEDED🛑", IF( IS_BEFORE({Live Date}, TODAY() ), "⏰Upcoming⏰", "🏃‍♂️In progress🏃‍♂️" ) ) )
