Hi! I am trying to sum certain values ​​from a specific row and column and I don’t know how to do it. Better to explain it with an example: In this image I am trying to get the following value in the third column: (1 + 2 + 3 + 4) / 4 = 2.5. That is, I am trying to add the 4 items from the second column (1 + 2 + 3 + 4) and divide them by the value from the first column (4). The result will be displayed in the third column. Like this: 4 1 2.5 4 2 2.5 4 3 2.5 4 4 2.5 All this for various groupings, such as the one shown below. Like this: 4 1 2,5 4 2 2,5 4 3 2,5 4 4 2,5 7 1 1 7 1 1 7 1 1 7 1 1 7 1 1 7 1 1 7 1 1 Could someone guide me? Ma

Hi! This is my table: https://airtable.com/shr0FiM4g1quNwnpG. It’s a table of our customers’ active licenses. Each license continue to be active until the customer calls us and terminates it. Then we remove the record from the table. Start day = The date the customer signed the license. Notice period (days) = The amount of days in which the customer need to terminate it’s license in advance. Otherwise the license is continued for another Agreement period. Agreement period (months) = The amount of months the customer is tied to it’s license. Tied until = The date the customer is tied to it’s license, I.e. Start day + Agreement period (months). The problem: I want the last field, Current possible termination date, to calculate a future date, that is the last day the cus

Is there a way for a formula to appear only on certain conditions? For example, I have the following situation: I have a # field and a date field I’d like to create a formula that auto calculates three-weeks out from my date field ONLY when the # field is not empty Here is the formula that I currently have: DATETIME_FORMAT(DATEADD({Clinic Date}, 3, ‘week’),“MM-DD-YYYY”) Is there a way to set up that additional condition so I don’t further clutter up my database? Thanks in advance to anyone who can assist!

Hello! I want to have a Formula as the Secondary Field. Now the Formula is: CONCATENATE(“PR-”,Autonumber,"/",YEAR(TODAY())) The “Autonumber” is a Field as Autonumber.

Hey AirTable brains trust, I’m trying to build a balance tracker in AirTable so that I can not only set up a budget, but also forecast what future account balances might be. I feel like I’m SO CLOSE. But I’ve found 2 flaws: the formula only seems to work if there’s an entry for the day before it. If there are no transactions for a few days, then the formula breaks somehow. the formula can’t cope if there are two transactions on the same day. I suspect the problem is found in the DateAmt column / formula (but that’s mostly an educated guess). I’ve straight copied the formula from the base that I’ve modelled it off (created by @W_Vann_Hall, of course). Here’s the base:

Hi! I want a field to show one of three values (Active, Expires in a week or Expired) depending on if the field “Startdatum” is after today, within a week or before today. How do I solve this? Thanks!

See the attached screenshot for an idea of what I’m trying to accomplish. I’m using a formula to concatenate the names of sellers and buyers. Simple except that if there are two or more names, how can I remove the identical last name, or add an & between names if they are different names?

I could use some assistance with extracting a word from a string. Here is an example of the string. 200 East Broadway #Z001 (Jacob to Seymore) This is the formula that almost has what I need but missing something. MID({Transaction Name}, SEARCH("#",{Transaction Name}), SEARCH("#",{Transaction Name}, SEARCH(" “,{Transaction Name})) - SEARCH(” ",{Transaction Name})) I’m trying to extract the apartment number (#Z001) from the string. Thanks in advance to anyone that tries to help with a solution.

Hello! I already use automations with dates and formulas to set recurring tasks at daily, weekly, and monthly intervals. I have a task that occurs twice a week (ideally on tues/thurs).

I have a list of people and their dates of birth. I’d like to know if that birthday falls in the current month. Right now, I have a column, the formula of which is IS_SAME({55th Birthday},TODAY()), which indicates if that birthday is today, but I’d like to see everyone in the list who turns 55 in the present month. So, in September, the September 55th birthdays are indicated; in October, the October 55th birthdays will be flagged; and so forth.

Hi, I have a base I use to request rooms. Is there a formula I can write to let me know if there is overlap in a request? For example: 1/10/2022: I have a request for 4 large conference rooms for Group 1 from 10-12 1/10/2022: I have a request for 3 medium conference rooms for Group 2 from 1-5 1/10/2022: I have a request for 2 large conference rooms for Group 3 from 9-11 I need a column that will show me that there is overlap with the request for Group 1 and 3, but that Group 2 has no overlap. Knowing which sessions have overlap, I can adjust the schedule, or room types, to ensure rooms are assigned correctly. Any suggestions? Thanks! Jeffrey

Hi there! Trying to create a formula that pulls various hourly rate information from another table and calculates the hours x hourly rates into a grand total field. Additionally, rates vary depending on the employee selected, so once a name is selected, the formula will pull their respective rates from the other table and start the calculation. I believe this may require a roll up field as well, but not sure where that falls in the flow. Here’s a screen shot of the other table with various $$$ rates Here’s my main timesheet table where you’ll see a number of hour totals (Reg., OT, and 2xOT). Again, once I choose a name (People) I want to calculate those totals with their respective rates in the Total Com

Hey all, I’d love a hand with a formula if anyone knows this? I’d like to find what % a number is of another number, if that makes sense… So for example… If I have $500 in an investment account, and that investment is currently sitting at $750, what’s the formula to show the % increase (which equals to 50%)? The formula would of course show the opposite of -50% if the investment fell to $250. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks! Christopher

Hi All, I am trying to figure out if a particular task has an upcming due date by seeing if a particular date field falls within 4 weeks from today. I have written the following formula: IF(AND({Milestone_Current_Due_Date} <= DATEADD(TODAY(), 1, ‘month’)),{Milestone Status}!=‘Completed’, “Upcoming Due Date”) But as you can tell from this screenshot it does not seem to operating correctly, saying some tasks have an upcming due date that is not within 4 weeks.

Hi everyone! I’m working in a pretty big AirTable right now and I have a question regarding searching an array. So if you see the first column I have a Lookup field with a large amount of items, some repeated, and I would like to search for each item and count how many times it was in the record. So for example, we would like to see how many “Mechanic” strings were in the array pulled from “Users (from User Categories)”. I thought the first step would be to convert the lookup field to an array so I have “Archetype Array”. However, I can not figure out how to search “Archetype Array” for specific string insides of it, like “Mechanic”. If you have any ideas to help, please let me know! Thanks!! :slightly_smiling_face:

Hi everybody, I need your help, please! I have a base with an action date, you have sixty days to complete the action. This is the deadline date.

I am trying to check to see if the Date column is empty, then if not, display the date’s weekday in the Day of Week column.

I’ve tried several different versions of the formula above. Any help appreciated.

Hi there, having a difficult time writing a formula, for an employee timesheet. Currently, I am the using DATETIME_DIFF formula to calculate the total amount of hours worked within a 14-day period. I’m using two date/time fields for each day (ex: Day 1 - Start, Day 1 - End), so my formula is embarrassingly long: DATETIME_DIFF({Day 1 - End}, {Day 1 - Start}, ‘hours’)+DATETIME_DIFF({Day 2 - End}, {DAY 2 - Start},‘hours’)+DATETIME_DIFF({Day 3 - End}, {Day 3 - Start},‘hours’)… and so on 11 more times. My issue is, we have some employees that don’t work the full 14 days, so I need a formula that will calculate their total hours, and if some START/END fields are left blank, it will result as a “0” in the overall calculation. I am a novice when it comes to formula writing, and have just started using Airtable this Summer. Any help or guidance is appreciated. Thanks!

Hey there, looking to create a simple slug and for some reason the apostrophe isn’t being removed. Example Title: Zoom Fatigue is real, so let’s deal with it. So make lowercase, remove apostrophes remove commas, remove full stops and replace spaces with dashes (etc) is what I’m after. LOWER( SUBSTITUTE( SUBSTITUTE( SUBSTITUTE( SUBSTITUTE( {Name}, "'","" ), ",", "" ), ".", "" ), " ", "-" ) ) I cannot fathom why the apostrophe is not being removed. I’m missing something easy… ideas?
