Formulas

Hi, I’m trying to lock in a timestamp when a status changes to one particular status. I would like that timestamp to be locked in and not change once the status changes to the next stage. Here’s a formula that would work except that once the status is changed off of the desired status it wouls go back to blank. IF({Status}=“Shop Floor”,NOW(),"") I could do it the following way, but the circular reference isn’t allowed. =IF({Status}="",(if({Status}=“Shop Floor”,NOW(),{Plan to CNC}))) Anyone have a workaround? Thanks in advance!

I have a column called “Visit” that’s all the client’s visit dates/times and am trying to add a “Last Visit” column that displays the last date/time of their appointment. I did a Rollup of Max(values) on the “Visits” column to display in the “Last Visit” column, but it is only returning the date of the last visit and not the time. How do I modify this Max(values) Rollup so it has the last date AND time of their visit: e.g. 4/10/20 2:00 PM ?

Hello. I have 2 tables in one base. One is called “leads” and one is called “Inputs.” (I’d like to add screenshots of them, but it says images are not allowed in posts) “Inputs” has 2 columns: Column A: “UTM” - 43 rows of different UTM strings Column B: “Source” - 43 referral source names, each corresponding to a UTM string “Leads” has 3 columns: Column A: “Name” - contact name Column B: “URL” - the website URL where the user contacted us Column C: “Source” (The formula will be used for this column) Zapier will enter a customers Name, and URL where they contacted us, in “Leads.” I am using “Inputs” as my lookup table to interpret website URLs in “Leads.” I need a formula that will do this: If “Leads” URL contains any of the UTMs listed in “Inputs”, then fill in the “Leads” source with the corresponding source listed in “Inputs” next to that UTM. If “Leads” UR

I’ve created a form that I’ve asked employees to fill out daily to help us track COVID-19 systems in our work force. I have a second table in my base that has the entire employee list with emails. I would like to create a formula/view where I can see who hasn’t filled out the form on a particular day so that I can send an email reminder to ping them. It’s not as simple as a date match, because I don’t want to see previous dates, only a particular date to see who is missing if that makes sense. New to doing this and any help is greatly appreciated!

Hello everyone, Due to Covid 19, my company decided to find an inexpensive way to create a Lead Management system for our Telemarketing and Telefund campaigns. Airtable seems to work great so far with the actual calling (even though it is a bit more hands on) but I am running into a small issue with our calling calendar. To give you some details, the calendar needs to work as a working document, showing (by month) which segments are called by Telemarketing and which by Telefund. The way I have set is by: a) Creating 3 tables in order to create groups for the segments (e.g Series A, Series B etc = Renewals, Tickets to X performance = 2021 Fall tickets etc.) One for Telemarketing, and one for Telefund as well as one table to group our suppressions. b) Under the original table, starting with the months as the initial column I added a date for when each extraction needs to be completed, a completed/not completed indicator, expected revenue (sep

I can’t find the way to format properly to date a rollup field. The formatting tab return that it’s not a date field. I have that : 2020-10-05T00:00:00.000Z and I want just that : 2020-10-05 Yet, the field rolled up is a date and the aggragation formula is ARRAYUNIQUE(values) Thanks in advance

I’m trying to create a template for a source bibliography that would include punctuation in the formula. I have multiple fields that will eventually be combined. Can someone tell me why I’m getting an X in Column 1, Row 3, when Column 3, Row 3 is blank? I would have expected that field to be blank. Here’s my records Here’s my formula Thank you, Stacey

Hi all. Sure this is super simple and I’m no doubt being super simple myself in not getting the solution… I have a sheet where I am keeping track on recurring charges. I’m dealing with 3 specific columns in this sheet Col 1 [$ Charge] Col 2 [currency selection…eg AUD, USD, GBP etc) Col 3 [$AUD Charge] Ultimately for each line item I add, I want all charges to be converted to AUD (this would be COL3) and from there I can run further calculation based on this number. So I’m assuming the formulas for column 3 would be: If “Currency” is “AUD” then display the value already entered in “$ Charge”. And… If “Currency” is “USD” then multiply by “<FX rate that I’ll input>” then display the calculation as a “$ value” I’m just not sure how I would write those formulas in Airtable? Possible? Thanks so much Ian

I use Integromat to automatically get the records, and I’m trying to create a search formula to get the list of records that have a birthday a week from now. Here’s the filter: Where {{Birthday}} is within the next number of days '7' How can I make a search formula based out of this filter? I like something from the FROMNOW([date]) which Birthday is the column, but there’s no integer to mark the days. Hope to hear back soon.

I have a couple fields that are all multiple selects, that I want to consolidate to one field that tells me what wasn’t chosen. For Example, I have 3 fields called VIDEO, AUDIO, GRAPHICS all with multiple options to select. I want to create a field that combines them all with the unselected options. If VIDEO has the options: Master, Web, DCP and I select only Master and DCP If AUDIO has: Stereo, 5.1, Stems and I select only Stereo, 5.1 If GRAPHICS has: poster, stills and I select only poster Then I want one field Called Missing that outputs the missing options: Web, Stems, stills Thank you.

I’ve got a datetime field called Start time (UTC) I want to take the time component and reformat the minutes into a fraction. For example: Source Desired output 14:00 14 14:15 14.25 14:30 14.5 14:55 14.92 I have tried taking the minute component and conditionally dividing it by 60 to at least get started (before I sort out rounding etc), but I just get #ERROR. Here’s my formula: IF(DATETIME_FORMAT({Start time (UTC)},'m')=0,"",(DATETIME_FORMAT({Start time (UTC)},'m')/60))

is it possible to remove spacing between words using formula

Hi, I would like my first column to be a formula that combines columns A-B-C if a specific value is selected in a single select column and combines different columns if another value is selected in that same single select column. I have a single select column called {Calendar} with 2 value options “Event” or “Series”. If {Calendar} is selected to be “Event” I’d like the formula to combine {Calendar}&"-"&{Date}&"-"&{Client}&"-"&{Street} If {Calendar} is “Series” I’d like the formula to combine {Calendar}&"-"&{Date}&"-"&{Site}&"-"&{Service} I would appreciate any help - I am completely stuck and need this in order to merge my Event and Series bases. Thank you! Alix

Is there any way to use the number of records in a tab in a formula? Eg: tab 1 > column 2 has a number x and in column 3 I want a formula that divides that number x by the number of records in that row Question form a colleague to calculate some Business Continuity Management score…

Hello, forgive my English, I’m Brazilian and I’m having difficulties with the use of the IF command. First, I have 5 different dates, which I will use as a review in the studies, and I needed to compare all these dates at once with the current day, so if date 1 is less than today, date 1 would return to me, if it were bigger i would return date 2, however, if date 2 was smaller, i would return date 3, and so on. Does anyone have any idea how to do this? !

My formula is MONTH({Trial Date})-1 I want that to then return a month name instead of a number. I’ve been trying to figure out the DATETIME_FORMAT to do it, but I cant get it.

Newbie here so be kind :slightly_smiling_face: This might have been asked before, but the only one i found that was a little relevant, the poster was asked a few times why he/she isn’t using the same table for their needs. So lets say i am insisting on using a few tables. It is for inventory. I will create tables for example: Available (featuring a column for manually entered/edited qty) Incoming (featuring a column for manually entered/edited qty) Outgoing (featuring a column for manually entered/edited qty) I will have a main table for an ‘overview’ of the combined above qtys. There wil be a ‘Total’ column in this main table. In this main table, the qtys from tables: Available Stock + Incoming - Outgoing will be calculated if i can work out how to make the tables work together? For example, in Google sheets or excel, a formula between sheets would be like: =‘ORDER LIST’!C116+‘SUPPLIER 1’!C9 So how to make a similar formula for Ai

I’ll preface this with a “Key” that gives context to my field types and field names. [Date #1] = “Start Time” Date Field (set to GMT) [Date #2] = “End Time” Date Field (set to GMT) [Stream URL] = URL Field I’m trying to make an IF() statement in a formula field that would reveal the [Stream URL] if the current point in time (down to minutes or seconds, I don’t care which) is after [Date #1] and before [Date #2]…otherwise, reveal the text “No Stream Available” I have tried things like this and come up short" IF( AND( IS_AFTER( NOW(), {Start Time} ), IS_BEFORE( NOW(), {End Time} ) ), {Stream URL}, "No Stream Available" ) Help would be appreciated :pray:
