Hey there, I’m looking to capture: Total Number of Vendors (1st column) that are in each Lifecycle Stage (Ex: 2 in PO Launched, 1 in PO Placed) and The % of vendors relative to the total (Ex: 40% of all vendors have a Lifecycle Stage of PO Launched) Questions: Does Lifecycle stage need to be a linked record? For my case it doesn’t (although that’s how it’s shown in the screenshot) Can that live in this table, or will it need to live in a separate, linked table? Thank you!

Hi, I need to calculate the evolution between two records. Row 1 = Week 1 ; 50 followers Row 2 = Week 2 ; 75 followers etc… In a column: (75-50)/50= 50% (progression of follower) How to do it in Airtable? Thanks

Hey everyone! I’m creating a column in a table where I’m concatenating a date field (formula driven), client name and default text. The result of the concatenate is adding an extra day to the formula driven date. Below is the formula and I uploaded an image of the dates reflecting the additional day. Any insight on what’s causing this? It’s so weird! Formula in the concatenate field: CONCATENATE(DATETIME_FORMAT({Monthly Rental Fee Renewal Date},‘MM-DD-YY’)," | “,{Client Name},” | ",“Rental Fee Renewal Date”)

Hey all! I’m stumped. I have a “Link to” column compiling every testing date, then a “Most Recent Test Date” rollup column using MAX (VALUES) to list back what the most recent date is. However, sometimes we schedule testing dates in advance. HOW do I get a column to determine what the most recent testing date is before TODAY? Thanks so much!!!

Hi there, I’m using airtable to compare an actual quantity with a goal quantity, then using an If, Then statement to tell me whether I’m at my goal, need to increase, or need to decrease my actual. Here’s my current formula: IF({% of total}={Goal % of total}, "OK", IF({% of total}>{Goal % of total}, "Trim", "Expand")) This is working fine, but what I would really like is if I were able to specify a range for values that are “close enough” to the goal. For example if {% of total} is plus or minus 0.5 of the goal, I want it to return OK. Anyone have any thoughts on how to do this? Thanks in advance!

I’m trying to get a formula to run only when the cell has a value. I work with hotels, so we send out weekly summaries of the entertainment scheduled for that week. I am creating a column that will automatically pull out the specific location (Venue) within that hotel where the performance is taking place. This is the formula I am currently using (which works): CONCATENATE("| ", {Venue (from Venue)}) Not all hotels have a specific venue name for the performance location. If the “Venue (from Venue)” field is blank, I would like to make it so this formula doesn’t even run. I did some reading in the forums and tried the below formula (amongst others), but it isn’t working. IF({Venue (from Venue)} = BLANK(), BLANK(), CONCATENATE("| ", {Venue (from Venue)}) Can someone help me? Thanks!

I am having trouble with the second IF part of this formula, it doesn’t return any results. I also tried it on it’s own and it still doesn’t return a result. IF({Writer Owned (adds up to 100%)}=.33330, VALUE(“16.66”), IF({Writer Owned (adds up to 100%)}=.33340, VALUE(“16.68”)))

hi! I have a strange issue. My formula (nested conditionals based on fields you can see in the image) provides different results for the same values! It turned out that the reason lies in the ID Roadmap link field. The first record has only one linked record while the second one has two - one of which is has empty values. When I delete that link, the Result formula changes to “ID excl from denominator”. However, I’m not able to delete those links one by one (it’s a long story). The question is: how do I create a formula that will be based only on values I can see?

Hi team, Building a similar clone as to the Producthunt upvote feature. I would like to know how I can use the counter in airtable fields.

I have a projects table where I link multiple records from a resources table. The linked records (resources) have different attributes (e.g. aaa, bbb, ccc, ddd) that come from a “single-select” field. My challenge now is to find projects where resources of a special attribute (e.g. bbb) are linked. Is there a function/formula field I could use to color records in my view? I’m not the full Expert on automation or formulas, but I think of a formula that goes to the link of the record, looks for the attribute, and then makes it possible to color or maybe write a “true/false” to another field and I color/filter/group for that. Currently the only solution I could find is to separate the resource-link field into a "link “bbb” resources here (links based on a filtered view) and all other resources on another field. Thus I see in a coulum quickly if a resource with the attribute “bbb” is linked. I don’t like this approach as I want to have all resources linked to

Hello. I have the same question as here - Display multi-select items not selected But it seems as though there is no answer in that thread. Does anybody know the solution to this? What formula can show only unselected in some field items?

Hi, I’m trying to copy Airtable cells into the whiteboarding tool called Mural. I have a formula that removes line breaks in the text field it’s calling and I want to take those cells and copy them into Mural to generate sticky notes for each individual cell. Now, if I copy a few cells at a time, it works fine, but this is tedious. So if I copy all the cells, then Mural seems to combine some of the cells for some reason into one sticky note. If I created a formula that aggregates all the cells into one in a different table (separated by a line break in the cell), when pasting it into Mural it adds quotation marks around the entire thing so Mural treats it as one giant sticky note. Any ideas on how to mass copy and paste from Airtable cells into Mural?

Hello, In airtable how can i add the formula to send me a notification that is linked to the overdue of the Due date field? To send me an email notification that i need to follow up

Hello! I’m looking to create a calculated field that shows me the number of days it takes to complete a record. The start date should be when the record is created, and the end date will be based on a dropdown field’s value (e.g. when the status field is set to “complete”). My thinking is that I need to create three formula fields: The date when a record is created (I’ve managed to achieve this part). The date when the status dropdown field is set to “complete”. The difference between the two dates in days (I’ve managed to achieve this part). So basically I’m missing how to create the 2nd field. Am I approaching this the wrong way? Is there a better way to show this report that doesn’t involve using an app add-on? Thank you!

Hi! I’m making a database for me to keep track of my train delays and the compensations I need to request, have requested and are approved or declined. I like to have an overview of the route I took. For this, I have two fields: Departure train station Arrival train station Both have these two options in a single select: Antwerpen-Centraal Noorderkempen Basically I want to only select the departure train station, and the formula should put the other option in the arrival train station. For example if I select “Noorderkempen”, the arrival train station should be set to “Antwerpen centraal”. How would I achieve that? Thanks in advance!

Hi, As you can see in the image, formula (price - discount + shipping charges) is returning 1 in first field as I have two values separated by commas that is 399,1076. Is there any way to write this formula, so it takes into account units separated by commas and return the correct result.

Hello! Can anyone advise on the IF formula to state if a date has passed a number of days? So if the date in “DATE” column is more than 60 days ago, then :white_check_mark: or :no_entry: . I’ve been looking through date and time functions in the Formula Field Reference, plus lots of posts in this community, but haven’t been able to find an answer that works. I’ve got a formula to display the number of days since, and looked into creating a view filtering for those above 60 days (that didn’t work anyway), but I would prefer it to just display :white_check_mark: (60 days or more) or :no_entry: (less than 60 days). Thank you for your help. Ian

I have a table where I am tracking employee trainings. I have this formula to output whether the staff member is up to date on a certain training: IF({Days} = BLANK(), “Overdue”, IF({Days} > {Max # of Days (from Training)}, “Overdue”, “Up to Date”)) I am trying to add another option. I have another formula that determines whether the staff member is almost due for training: IF(AND({Days} < {Max # of Days (from Training)}, {Days} > {Overdue Threshold (from Training)}), “Soon to be overdue”) I was wondering if I could get help with the syntax to combine the two formulas into one?
