Formulas

Hi! I created a prefilled form link but somehow it’s not populating the field. I created other similar ones and those are working though. Help! Working: Form Not working: Form

Hello Airtable Community,I'm working on a project that involves calculating the Qibla direction using Airtable. I have latitude and longitude data for various locations stored in my Airtable base. I need to create a custom formula that can accurately determine the Qibla direction for each location.I have come across the term "boussole prière en ligne" (online prayer compass) and understand its importance in providing precise Qibla directions. Could someone guide me on how to implement the necessary trigonometric calculations within Airtable’s formula field to achieve this? Specifically, I’m looking for a way to:Input the coordinates of the Kaaba (latitude: 21.4225, longitude: 39.8262).Use the haversine formula or any other relevant trigonometric function to compute the initial bearing from any given point to the Kaaba.Ensure the result is displayed in de

I want to create a summary of my table row, which has linked records to them. Ideally, the entire summary in text, with the linked records expressed in text within the entire summary. An example below:Case TableCase |  Person |  Invoice  1234 |  Michael | XYZPerson TableName | DOB | AddressMichael | 1/1/1990 | 10 Oxley RoadInvoice TableID | ItemsXYZ | Hamburger; Fries; CokeDesired output:1234; Michael;1/1/1990;10 Oxley Road; XYZ; Hamburger; $2; Fries; $2; Coke; $2Ideally what I want to achieve is:Case: 1234Person: MichaelInvoice: XYZLine items1. Hamburger \t\t $22. Fries \t\t $23. Coke \t\t $2Total $6.

Because automations are so limited in formatting options for email messages, I'm stuck having to create a bunch of extra fields solely to copy specifically formatted other fields and change them to flat text so they'll appear correctly when emails are sent.Because of this, I'm currently hung up trying to get currency to format properly. I have a formula field that outputs values as a currency into a field that we'll call "Dollar Total", including thousands and decimal separators. I was able to use a concat formula to get the basic copying done, including adding the $ manually at the start, but it doesn't handle decimals properly which then further complicates trying to get a formula to manually insert the thousands separator commas.For instance, if a value is "$14,500.00" it'll output as "$14,500" but if it's $14,500.80" all I get is "14,500.8". It'll go out as far as I do with numbers after a decimal, but if it's only zeroes it drops them, and then that breaks the man

When the lookup value is a field with multiple records, is there a way to filter the returned linked records and extract one field from it?For simplicity's sake, suppose that I have the following 4 tables1. Products - generic information about products2. Vendors - info about vendors3. vendor_products - products that vendors carry (i.e. vendor pricing), linked fields to products and vendors4. invoice line items - columns to select product, vendor, lookup field with vendor_products from vendorOn the invoice line item, I would like to be able to also filter the vendor_product by the selected product and then extract the price for it.  Is this possible?    

I am looking to take a field that has a total amount of seconds and have it formulate into a duration.E.g. My "seconds" field set as 210 would populate in my formula field as 00:03:30:000.Does anyone have a formula solution for this?

I have a date+time and a duration (days: hours: minutes). I want to add a day:hour:minute duration to the date+time and output a new date+time. Issues I've encountered:1. I can only set a duration field to be day OR hours/minutes/seconds. 2. When attempting to create a formula to add a "Day" duration field to a "Hour" duration field the output is incorrect. For example I have a Day Duration field with "1" and in the Hour duration field I have 00:05. I triedDATEADD({Next Output Days},{Next Output HH:SS},'seconds')   Results in #ERROR!SUM({Next Output Days}+{Next Output HH:SS})   Results in 301?I'd be fine with a result of the total seconds of the day + hours/minutes to use for my final for

Is there any way to display the Button field only if the URL field it references has data? So if {resource link} is null, don't display anything. We have some users who are confused when the button doesn't work (not all the records will have a resource link). These are views which are shared publicly and not Airtable users. Thanks!

When applying this formula "{Pago a realizar}-{Pago efectuado}"  to the selected fields, as you can see in the 4 file, the result is not 0 but 1. How could I fix this error?

Hi everybody.My issue is the following: I have a make.com workflow in which I search for airtable records with which to perform certain actions, but it's not returning the expected result. Here's the formula I added to the airtable module in make.com:AND(DATETIME_FORMAT({var1} , "DD.MM.YYYY") <= DATETIME_FORMAT(NOW(),"DD.MM.YYYY"), {var2}, DATETIME_FORMAT({var2} , "DD.MM.YYYY") <= DATETIME_FORMAT(NOW(),"DD.MM.YYYY"), {var3}, {var3} != "N/A", {var4} != "Text", {var5}, {var6} = 0, {var7} = 0, {var8} = 0, {var9} = 1)I narrowed it down to var2 not returning the result I expect. So if var2 is "31.07.2024" and today is "01.08.2024", I get a 0, meaning Airtable is not the same opinion that yesterday is "smaller" than today. The strangest behavior. Does anyone have some advice?

I am trying to group line items based on the below conditions, but for some reason it's not working for all the "Done" ones. It does work for the 2023 items that are marked Done in the status column, but the one 2024 item that is marked Done in the status column still returns the 2024Q3. I really hope this makes sense. IF(REGEX_MATCH({Labels},"(2024Q4_\\w)"),"Unscheduled",IF(REGEX_MATCH({Labels},"(2024Q4)"),"2024Q4",IF(REGEX_MATCH({Labels},"(2024Q3)"),"2024Q3",IF(REGEX_MATCH

I am building a table that creates a record for monthly billing. The billing happens on the same day each month. I have a Date Paid field and a Next Date Paid formula field, and an automation that triggers after the bill gets paid to create a new record with the Next Date Paid from the old record populating into the Date Paid field of the new record.The problem I'm having is with the DateAdd() function. My current formula is: DATEADD({Date Paid},1,'month')  I thought this would just add one to the month, but it actually just adds 30 days which means that my dates won't match up. I tried adding a field with a static number(MonthDay Paid) and doing something like: DATETIME_FORMAT(DATEADD

My workflow is based on priority levels, so I'm trying to create a "Due date" field based on the last time a record was updated. What am I doing wrong is there a better way to create this date? 

I've created on a base a table template with several formulas that I'd like to duplicated for the various projets that I managed but when I try to copy / sync  the table to another base, all my formulas are not transfered and the columns with the Formula Field Type are changed to a Number Field type.Is there an automatic way to copy the formulas or do I have to manually copy/paste them on each new base ? I've left some some images for reference, as you can see the field type is completely different and dont include my formulas.Thanks,

Hi! I'm new to Airtable, and my company just started using Airtable to build our merchandising assortments. We currently buy products from both US and AU with different duties and transit costs associated with each region. Previously when working in google docs we used IF formalas and vlookups to reference those costs depending on the type of buy. Is there a way to add that data set somewhere in Airtable to reference? I've added a screen shot of the data set of the duty and transit costs and our google doc formula for reference as well! Appreciate any help!

Hi. Thanks in advance for any help.I'd like to take a table with dated records in them, then group them by month-Year.How do I take a date format and make a field that will allow me to show the latest records at the top for a particular month? For example:2024 - 2 (all records follow)2024 - 1 (all records follow)2023 - 12 (all records follow)etceteraThen of course as we add newer records at the top, they'll continue.Thanks!  

I'm creating a script to compare two rollup fields and add the values both share into a third column. The fields roll up linked record fields and return them as just the text in a comma-separated list. Airtable documentation says rollup fields are an array; it looks like this is technically true, but it seems to be an array of a single string. When I log.console the cell value (note, I'm using getCellValue, not getCellValueAsString), I get ["Category 1, Category 2, Category 3"]. I want to get an array of multiple strings: ["Category 1", "Category 2", "Category 3"]. I'm very new to Airtable, so before I try to figure out ways within my script to separate the one string using the commas and all that, I want to make ask:1. Is this single string output the expected behavior, or is my script calling it incorrectly?2. If it's normal, is there way to configure the rollup fields to instead keep them as separate items?

I have a table with two date fields- "date created" and date "completed". I would like to create a formula that calculates the number of dates that passed from the date the record was created to the date it was marked as "completed". What's the right formula for this?

Hi, I have two tables in a Database.One table: called "People". It has list of peoples and their Emails.Second table: called "Mailing" Has email from table one.I would like to set an new field in "People" (table 1) that marks "1" if an email is present in both tables. I called this field "Did_I_found_Email" (1 = yes, 0 = No).How do I do this?    

I have two numerical values, A and B, that I am using to create a range field. Here is my current formula:CONCATENATE({A}, "-", {B}). So far so good. The tricky part is that not all of the entries have a B value, in which cases the result will look like {A}-. Ideally I would like it to just return the single value from A without the hyphen in this scenario. I have tried using an IF to say IF(BLANK({B})) but here is where I get lost.  Any advice is appreciated! I am very new to formulas... 

Hello everyone, In Germany, there is a regulation in the Occupational Health and Safety Act that states workers who work on Sunday or on holidays receive an additional allowance on their salary. This involves a complex formula, which even ChatGPT struggles with. Maybe there is someone here who is smarter than AI.My table includes a date field including time field named {Start} and a date field including time field named {End}. I want:1. Formula field = formula that calculates the hours/minutes that fall within the period of Sunday.Example : Max starts his shift at saturday 8 PM and works until Sunday 4 AM. The formula should now calculate 4 hours.2. Formula field = formula that calculates the hours/minutes that fall within the period of holidays. The holiday dates should be defined in the forumla itselfs = ( 01.01.2024 / 29.03.2024 / 01.04.2024 / 01.05.2024 / 09.05.2024 / 20.05.2024 / 03.10.2024 / 25.12.2

Hi! I created an Airtable to help plan my wedding. I have a table that's for Guests and in this table I have fields for their first and last name and their title (Mr., Mrs., etc.). I created a field that adds all of these fields to create their formal name on the invitation envelope. Right now the formula reads: Title & " " & {First Name} & " " & {Last Name} & " " & "&" & " " & {Guest Name (from Relationship)}  Here's where the problem comes in, for my single guests it puts the "&" after their name, for example, "Mr. John Smith

I am trying to generate a formula where:1. If date in field x is greater than 1953, then 1 is put in field zOR2. If checkbox is checked in field y, then 1 is put in field zI came up with this formulaIF(OR({NO DIGITAL} = 0), ({CODE-DATE} > 1953), "1")However, this is producing a statement that reads 'true' if {CODE-DATE} > 1953, and '1' if {NO DIGITAL} = 0 (that is to say, box in {NO DIGITAL} is checked)Any idea why this is happening or how to get the results I want?

Hello! I have a formula to count how many workdays are left between a data and “today” and when the reference data is “after today”, the output returns a negative number (as it should). I am looking for a way to get my formula to only return “0” when that situation occurs. I haven’t figured out the nested if statement logic to make it work. Does anyone have a solution to this? Thank you!

Hi! I am trying to summarize a range of fields from one record. I know that there is a formula Sum({Column 1}+{Column 2}+{Column 3}…). However, I am looking for a formula to choose all the columns between Column A → Column X. I will have a database with many columns and I need to summarize multiple records quickly. Is there any formula that can help? Or what are the possible solutions for this? This is an example ! Thanks for any help!
