Formulas

I am currently trying to get by without a dedicated TIME field with no date attached. I am currently trying to convert a text field into a timefield with the following code: DATETIME_FORMAT(DATETIME_PARSE({Start Time}, ‘hh:mm’), ‘hh:mm a’) The focumula is working fine, however when I write in a time, such as 3pm, it still parses it in as 3am. I note that if I put in 1500, it correctly parses the time to 3pm. I have worked in systems where you could put in variations of (3pm, 3p, 300pm, etc) and it would always know that meant PM. Is there a way to make airtable do this, and of course the converse with AM, so that I do not have to use military time?

Hi all! I have two fields, both filled with features. I want to see which features are repeated in both fields. For example, I want a column that would tell me that ‘Feature2’ is in both columns of row 1 (record1), Feature3 and Feature4 are both in the columns of record 2 and 'Feature1 and Feature3 are also both there in record 3. Maybe a formula like: If the text in column A is similar to the text in column B, then insert it in column C? I hope this is clear! Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi All!! So I have 3 groups (A, B, C) and I have features associated with each group. To put you in context, each participant (we had 5 participants in each group) had to associate 4 features to its group. So now I have a record for each group and within that specific record, all the features that were associated to it. I can have the same features multiple times. What I want to do, is count how many times each feature was associated. For example, how many times I have ‘Feature1’ in group A. Please help!! Thank you !!

I have a number for every record in this format P01384. It starts with P00000. There are several records missing and I would like to see if there is a way to write a formula that would give me the numbers of the missing records in the sequence. Is this possible in Airtable?. I have found a way to do it exporting a .csv of the table and then, using a macro I found for Excel, find the missing numbers. A very convoluted way. Would love to just have this info in Airtable. Seems like it should be a simple thing but guess it’s not. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Im a little confused why this isn’t working correctly… I have {Job Date} field and a formula field with this… IF({Job Date}="","-",DATETIME_DIFF({Job Date}, TODAY(),‘minutes’)) This formula field does initially show how many minutes before my {Job Date} but it doesn’t actually count down. I assumed with this formula it would actually count down every minute with the new correct number of minutes before the {Job Date}. Am I missing something? Any ideas how to make this work? Thanks in advance!

This one has me stumped… Please help! I have two tables in my base. Table A has a field called ‘Brand URL’ Table B also has a field called ‘Brand URL’ I would like a formula field to find matches between Table A and B based on their Brand URL values. When a match is found, I would like to automatically link the records together. What’s the best way to do this? Thanks!

Another challenging one… Any advice appreciated! I have a long text field containing multiple customer reviews from Amazon, separated by strings of special characters. For example: " //Lorem ipsum lorem ipsum// //Lorem ipsum fake ipsum// //Lorem counterfeit lorem ipsum// //Lorem ipsum lorem ipsum// " I want to write a formula that will search this field for specific keywords such as “fake” and “counterfeit”. When the formula finds a match to these keywords, it will grab all the text between the special character markers wherein the keyword was found. So, for example, using the above long text value, my formula would output: " Lorem ipsum fake ipsum Lorem counterfeit lorem ipsum " Thanks for your help!

How can I edit this formula to leave the field blank if the number returned is negative? Thanks! IF({Update Cycle}=‘1’,({Days Since Update}-30), IF({Update Cycle}=‘2’,({Days Since Update}-60), IF({Update Cycle}=‘3’,({Days Since Update}-90), IF({Update Cycle}=‘4’,({Days Since Update}-120), IF({Update Cycle}=‘5’,({Days Since Update}-150), IF({Update Cycle}=‘6’,({Days Since Update}-180), IF({Update Cycle}=‘7’,({Days Since Update}-210), IF({Update Cycle}=‘8’,({Days Since Update}-240), IF({Update Cycle}=‘9’,({Days Since Update}-270), IF({Update Cycle}=‘10’,({Days Since Update}-300), IF({Update Cycle}=‘11’,({Days Since Update}-330), IF({Update Cycle}=‘12’,({Days Since Update}-360), “” ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) )

This is admittedly an aesthetic concern, but I feel like it should be possible. I have a formula that tests a checkbox field, {Guild?}, to see if I owe fees for a given project to a guild I work with. If it is a guild project, then the formula should return a currency value equal to the amount received for the project, {Rec’d}, times the Cut field, which is a percentage. Currently, I have it written like so: IF({Guild?}=1, {Rec’d}*{Cut}, " ") This returns the right numbers for guild projects and leaves non-guild projects blank. Fine and good. However, I cannot use the field formatting options because the values are not all numbers. Is there a way to tell Airtable to return {Rec’d}*{Cut} as currency?

Not sure if this is possible, or if I’m even in the right topic. But essentially, I have set up a table for material cost for wood, but I want to use it mainly as a tool for giving quotes to clients. I have a material field, the dimension, unit cost, tax rate, and total cost after tax. I would like to set up the dimension field so that when I put a specific dimension in, it will automatically populate unit price and all that in the remaining fields. For example: For one project, I want to know how much it will cost me to get 100 board feet of 2x6 American Yellow Cedar. I want to put in 2x6 in my dimensions field, and have it’s unit cost appear in it’s appropriate field, and let the formula calculate the cost. Then for another project, I need to figure out how much 150 board feet of 2x4 walnut will be. So I’d select my material as walnut, put in the dimension, and then have the rest of the fields auto populate with data I’ve already put into the system. I hope this make

Hi guys, I have a problem with my base. On my base, I have 3 differents tables, bénévole = volunteer, événement = events and inscription événements = events registration. On the first, I have the list of the volunteer. For each volunters, I want that they have the first event that they have participated in Evénement A, the second in Evenement B… The Events are from the second table. On the second table, I have the list of the events with all the information about the event. On the third table, I have two view, the Grid one and the form one. With the form, the volunteer could registrate to the event (column Evenement). They can choose multiple Events. On the Grid view, I have the detail of the volunteers registrations.

Hi! I would like to use Airtable to do my accounting, but I need a formula that is way above my paygrade, maybe someone here can help? I have a (single select) column 'deposit/withdrawals" and an amount column where all amounts are positive. I’d like to have the withdrawal amounts show as negative. So I made a third column where I’d like to say “if column 1 says withdrawal, then please give me column 2 amount as -amount, if it says deposit, then please give me column 2 as +amount”. Maybe that’s not the right way to go (?) but in any case, I’d love some help if possible! Thank you!

Hello! I am trying to write a formula for tracking what month something was checked as billed. I want to be able to group by month billed to show income by month. Currently I use this Formula for date billed when checked. IF(Billed=1,TODAY()) This shows me the date it was billed. But for grouping purposes I would like a formula that would say when billed has been checked it will show month checked. I tried this formula IF(Billed=1,MONTH()) But it does not work, it shows #ERROR!. Is there a formula I can use to state only the month when billed is checked?

Hi Community, Appreciate if someone can help comment about this statement as its not working. Thanks. IF( {Event Type} = ‘Partner Tech Talk’, CONCATENATE(“URL/YYYYYYYYYY”,"?prefill_id=",ENCODE_URL_COMPONENT({Feedback Key}), CONCATENATE(“URL/XXXXXXXXXX”,"?prefill_id=",ENCODE_URL_COMPONENT({Feedback Key}) ) NOTE: I concealed actual URLs - assuming URL/YYYYYY works. In other words CONCATENATE statement works by itself. However, when trying to create IF statement picking the right URL based on Event Type field this doesn’t work.

I saw a post with the following formula: IF(IS_BEFORE({Due Date}, TODAY()), “ :boom: ”, " ") This formula puts the emoji in a column if the due date for something is past. I’m not really good with formulas. Is there a way to make it have that emoji if it is ON the due date AND after?

New to Airtable and loving it so far! I am creating a Table for calculating costs and processing invoices for a logistics company. I am looking for a formula that will give me the result below: If the number in column A is greater than the number in Column B, then it should be inserted into column C. BUT if the number in Column A is less than that in Column B, the Column B number should be inserted into Column C. In other words, the greater of the numbers in Columns A and B should be inserted into column C. Any help would be appreciated.

Hello, I have a formula for UTM and its pulling from the other columns in the sheet, but for some reason, it is not hyperlinking the entire URL. I not sure why, But I have doubled checked the formula to make sure there are no spaces. I am new to Airtable formulas so I am not sure what I am doing wrong. Thanks!

Hello, I’m writing a formula to tell me the DMA region of a client based on a list of zip codes.
