Formulas

I’ve got an opportunity tracker base that’s logging potential project opportunities from five different countries. I’m trying to set up a column that takes those individual budgets and converts them all to USD so that I can see our global pipeline in one currency. To do this, I’m assuming I need to set up a formula that cross references each project budget against the city of origin for that project and only does currency conversion if necessary. Basically I want to do something along the lines of If {City of Origin} = “New York” or “Los Angeles”, then just reprint {Budget} If {City of Origin} = “London”, then just multiply {Budget} * 1.3 If {City of Origin} = “Paris”, then just multiply {Budget} * 1.4 etc etc But I can’t figure out the syntax. Would anyone be willing to help? Also, can anyone recommend best practice for referring to currency conversion multipliers in Airtable that might be simpler than hard-coding the num

Hi. I have a database with veg and flowers in. For the flowers I have fields for colours, scented and evergreen. I don’t want these to appear in the veg details. Same as I don’t want ‘hungry gap’ fields with flowers (for example)… Is this possible or should I split the data? If is is, please could you give me a forumula example I could use.

Hello All, I’m implementing a base that will be used to manage a process. As any process it has multiple steps and I want to identify which of them are bottlenecks. In order to do that, I created a Single Select field (Process_Step) that represents the current step of the process and other n fields that will hold the time that the process reached each step. For instance, S1 will hold the date and time when the process moved to step 1, S2 to step 2, and so on. I implemented it as follows: Field Last Updated Time = LAST_MODIFIED_TIME({Funnel}) Field S1 = IF({Process_Step} = "Step_1", IF({Origem} = "Maping", {Last Updated Time}, BLANK())) The field Last Updated Time contains information about when the process moved one step and S1 will hold that value if it has entered the first step. The problem is, every time t

I have been using this formula: IF({Completed}=1,DATETIME_FORMAT(NOW(),‘M/DD/YYYY h:mm’),0) to record a date when a “Completed” check box is ticked off in another column. This worked flawlessly up until recently. For some reason, all past dates are now changing to whatever the current days date is. I have jobs months old that now say they were only completed today. Any help is appreciated. I can’t figure out what happened other than it is a new year and maybe that messed something up.

I am a formula newbie and need some help. I am hoping this is even possible. Any help is welcome!! If the Expiration Date field is TODAY then I need to have Executed Agreement On File? field changed to No and the Status field changed to Expired. These values are from picklists. Can this be done and if so, how do I write it out? Thanks much!

Hi everyone, I am trying to auto publish content to my site according to formula in my table. My curl filter is - filterByFormula={diff}=1. The filter is working great but it seems my logic is lacking when it comes to determining what formula to use to get {diff} =1. I have a table that includes a column {publish-date}. {publish-date} is set to US 24hr format. In my {diff} column I tried IS_BEFORE({publish-date},TODAY(HOUR(8))) and IS_AFTER({publish-date},TODAY(HOUR(8))). It worked for one day then went screwy. In the end I want content from my table row to appear on my site once the current time is past it’s {publish-date}, specifically after 8 AM of it’s {publish-date} .

Hi Everyone, I just can’t figure the formula thing out and I’ve spent hours on this, so am hoping that someone can help. Please if you respond - know that I’m not a programmer or formula savvy. I’m struggling with this. I have a column called Follow-Up Date. I create a column called Task Status. I want to do the following, so the Task Status column populates with Planning, Due Soon, Wrap it up, Due Today and Overdue based on date criteria of the Follow-Up date. If Follow-up Date is 2 weeks from the follow-up date based on today’s date, then I want the field to show “Planning” If Follow-Up date is 1 week from the follow-up date based on today’s date, then I want the field to show “Due Soon” If Follow-up date is 3 days from the follow-up date based on today’s date, then I want the field to show “Wrap it up” If Follow-Up date is today, then I want the field to show “Due Today” If Fo

I’ve tried copying and adapting examples from this forum (many thanks all to those who contribute!) and I’ve tried writing formulas from scratch… nothing seems to work! I’m using a very simple base to record my daily step count. I have a field called “Steps” and I want to include a quick visual indication of what my step count is for the day (actually, I’ll be using icons, but it’s simpler to include words in my example). IF( {Steps}>19999, “Yay”, IF( {Steps}>9999, “OK”, IF( {Steps}>1, “No comment” ) ) )

I would like to create a formula to search 1 field and return the search results comma separated. This formula only returns the last item found not all of them. IF(FIND(“text1”,{field}),“text1”,"")&IF(FIND(“text2”,{field}),“text2”,"") Ideally, this would return: text1text2

I am trying to make a formula that will create a status after a certain # of days has passed Scenario Client Makes Appointment Appointment date is added to the record The field called “Client Status” is changed to “Evaluating Proposal” What I need: IF: 7 days later the “Client Status” is still “Evaluating Proposal” then change the formula field to say “Follow Up Email OverDue”

Greeting Airtable Community! I have an existing formula that is returning the correct results: IF(AND({Guest Code}=‘DONOR’,{Status S2}=‘Yes’),First&" "&Last) I now need to modify the formula to include {Status S2}=‘Yes FUP’ and the ‘Yes’ variable. Any assistance on this would be greatly appreciated, as always. John

I am trying to create a formula field result where if the box for “LMI” is not checked, AND someone has “Home Performance” in the multiple select field of things they are interested in, the words “enroll in Comfort Home” appear. Logically I think I know how to do this, having read lots of these help posts… but I keep getting syntax errors. HELP! What am I doing wrong? IF( AND( FIND( “Home Performance”, {Interested in} ), FIND( “0”, {LMI} ) ) "enroll in Comfort Home", " " )

Hi all, I’d appreciate help on this if at all possible? I am trying to write a formula which counts down from a date field called ‘Last Service’ by a number of days as stipulated by a field called ‘Service Days’. Service Days is an integer which describes the number of days between each service activity. i.e. ‘14’ would indicate that there is a service every 14 days. So if the ‘Last service’ was on 01/01/2020 (DD/MM/YY), and the ‘Service Days’ was 14, on 10/01/2020 the new formula would calculate ‘4’ (4 days left until next service). I hope that makes sense and sorry if it is something that has been answered before - I tried to look but couldn’t find the answer! :slightly_smiling_face: Gareth

Hello guys! I’m new here and I’m handling a problem with one of my tables to link with Zapier I have a schedule tab when a person fill the form, a date filter to “exclude” that date from my available tab. It means, when a person schedule that date, in the {Schedule Date} is a linked record that I can’t get on zapier because it show only the ID record… I need to show the real date, cuz I wanna make a Zap to all the forms I’ll pass to a google sheet. Sorry if it’s a simples question, but it’s the last thing to end my project.

Hello, I have a master table with a column linked to subtasks from another table with statuses (launched, in progress, etc). In my master table, I’m trying to roll up all the unique values and if they’re not ALL ‘launched’, it should spit out ‘Incomplete’ otherwise spit out ‘complete’. Is this possible? Thanks!

Hello Airtable! I need some help with scheduling in a project management base I have. I’m trying to configure a column to alert me when I am scheduling a presenter for a conference panel that conflicts with another time slot where they are already scheduled. However, I am VERY new to airtable and the formulas needed to make this work. I tried using the formulas and suggestions from this post (Scheduling Database - Availability using SUBSTITUTE()) but there are some key pieces I’m missing that the posters gloss over (likely I’m not getting it cuz I’m new and am not as familiar with how linking and rollups and the formulas work - that’s actually me asking for clarification at the bottom). I have a table of presenters, and a table of panels. The presenters column in the panels table is linked to the presenters table. The panels column also has a column for start time and

Hello everyone, I’m a beginner with airtable. I imported a csv in airtable (i used to work with googlesheet), a database of people for a recruitment activity. I have several columns : name, email, etc… and 3 sectors in 3 different columns. I defined the content of my sectors columns as “multiple select” (because i would like after to make people fill through forms with multiple choices). I would like to have only one column centralizing all the 3 sectors of one person with different tag (which is called “options” in airtable, because the column nature is “multiple select”). If someone has “bank” in the first column, “insurance” in the second one and “energy” in the third one, I would like only one column with 3 “options” (like tags) : “bank” / “insurance” / “energy”. I have 3000 lines so I don’t want to do it manually. I already tried to use different formula but the result is not good , I have the 3 words in my target column , I don’t want the 3 words but I want 3 “options”

Hey guys, – What am I doing wrong on this? My goal is to: IF (OrderStatus contains “ :blue_square: Completed”, “ :brown_square: Closed”, or both-- it should be 1(true)

Greetings Airtable Community! I am hoping a more experienced user can provide guidance on a formula. I currently have a formula field: IF(AND({Guest Code}=‘DONOR’,{Status S1}=‘Yes’),First&" "&Last) This is returning the correct data (e.g. Robert Jones); however, I need to expand the formula to also include the guest of First Last (e.g. Robert Jones, Sally Smith). The guest field names are With First and With Last. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. I’m up against a deadline, so it’s time sensitive. Cheers and thanks, John

I have an issue with the formula in the ID field not displaying correctly as it has several decimal places even though the column it’s getting the data from is set to currency integer (2). How do I get it to display correctly? This is how it’s showing: This is my formula for calculating the Amount Outstanding: And the format: And this is my formula for the ID field: Anyone know a way to fix this?

I’ve searched this topic but I’m obviously missing something because it seems too simple … I have a table of parts, each of the parts have a cost so the table has a Total column. I want to have that Total value appear in another table (then I’ll be deducting that value from corresponding columns to generate another figure. How do I simply reflect the value from a column in 1 table, in another table? Like I said, it seems crazy simple…

Hi there – There was a formula field option called “Last Updated By” - that seems to have disappeared? It was there at the beginning of January… is there another way to get this information now? Anyone know? Thanks!

Hola, si alguien me puede ayudar con una diferencia de fechas, donde: Corte: es la fecha final y Fecha: la fecha inicial, cuando Corte esta como tipo de campo Date y Fecha también, la formula abajo me funciona perfectamente, pero cuando Corte, esta vinculado a otra tabla cuyo campo es Date, la formula no funciona, probé anteponiendo a Corte, la fórmula DATETIME_PARSE({Corte}), pero no logro convertir dicho campo a data para que DATETIME_DIFF, lo entienda como fecha y resuelva la operación. Alguien me puede indicar cómo convierto ese campo vinculado a tipo data para que funcione la fórmula DATATIME_DIFF? (El campo que se diligencia es tipo Date y diligencia automáticamente el campo tipo vínculo, con una supuesta fecha, en la columna Corte) ROUND(IF({Fac Dep}>0, 0,IF(DATETIME_DIFF({Corte}, Fecha ,‘days’)+1>={Vida Útil}*365,{Vida Útil}360, (DATETIME_DIFF({Corte}, Fecha ,‘days’)+1)/365360)),0)

Is it possible to recreate the RATE() function from Excel and Google Sheets inside Airtable?

Hi, I would like to calculate how long a project will take based on the number of components * various pre-determined times. Here, for example, I’m saying that it takes 5 minutes to work on one Table. I would like to replace the 5 with 00:05:00, if possible. As this is an average time, I would like it to be part of the formula and not taken from another column. Thanks! (Datasets+{Time series}+{Supporting articles or methodologies}+2)*2 + ((Words*4)/500) + ((Charts+Interactives)*3) + Tables*5 + ((Datasets+{Time series})*1)
