Formulas

I have a base with information about students in a music program, including their birthdates (MM/DD/YYYY). I have a formula that calculates their age as of today:DATETIME_DIFF(TODAY(), {Birthdate}, 'years') and a formula that calculates the number of days to their next birthday:IF({Days from today} < 0, {Days from today} + 365, {Days from today}) I want to create a field that will tell me how old they will be on their next birthday. Is it as simple as adding 1 to the formula that calculates their age as of today? Thanks-Jen&nb

I'm working with a relatively simple table with columns for room number, name, and dietary restrictions. Dietary restrictions will be a dropdown multi-select column.RoomNameRestrictions1JohnHalal, Diabetic2SallyHalal3JaneHalal, Diabetic4

I have a simple base that shows transactions each month and allows me to track date of the transaction.I want to add a formula field that will compare Entered date (year & month) to the current year and month: IF(  AND(    IS_SAME({Entered},TODAY(),'year'),    IS_SAME({Entered},TODAY(),'month'),1,0      )  )   This isn't returning any values in the formula fie

Currently, formula fields support numeric, date and text output only. Are there any plans to extend formula field to work with other types of output (such as the single select field)? A bit of context: I have 3 single select fields (let’s call them A, B, and C) which represent the status of a task. Statuses may have one of the following options: Todo, Doing, Paused, and Done. For example, given some task, it could have the A field as Doing, B as Paused, and C as Todo. With that in mind, I’d like to have a field D that automatically selects its value based on fields A, B, and C. Let’s say D is a formula field that does some least common denominator logic to figure its value out. The problem I’m facing is that the output type of D is text, and I’d like it to be a single select field’s value type. Also, is there a dedicated place to ask Ai

Hey, there! 🤗I have a column named "Time" that has the time a test was taken based on military time.  I'm trying to get the the column "Time of Day" to be able to populate automatically either "morning," "afternoon," or "evening."I believe I need an IF statement.If score time is:0-11:59: morning12-16:59: afternoon16:59-24:00: eveningMy formatting is probably way off 🤣 I am very new at formulas.  This was based off my research in other forums.Thanks! Here's what I tried: IF( {Risk Score} < 0, "error, value too low", IF( {Time} < 12:00, "morning", IF( {Time} < 17:00, "afternoon", IF( {Time} <= 24:00, "evening", IF( {Time} > 24:00, "error, value too high" ) ) ) ) )

Hello:New to Airtable and new to the forum here...Looking for a solution to combine records in my field {Component], for every change in records in my fields {Location ID} and {Room}.  For example, in the attached image I would want to combine WF218, W361824, RF9624 3/4, W3330, and so on to B18, in a new field.  This is to correspond with {Location ID} 1-3-302 and with {Room} A Acc Kitchen.  For the next combined field, the result would be ADA SB30, for location 1-3-302 and room A Acc Bathroom.  I would like to accomplish with a formula, but I understand I may need to create a new linked table.  I am attaching 2 views; one is grouped and one is a straight view, for clarity.  Thanks so much!!  

Hello! I found the "Splitting text to alternate columns separated by ;" thread and was hopeful that it was exactly what I needed, but after trying to implement this formula I am not getting the expected outcome. I'm not sure if it has to do with the format of my data including a mix of hyphens and underscores or if there is something else I'm missing.I have anywhere between 1 to 5 lines of text that I need to break out into their own columns instead of being combined. Ideally I would have five new formula columns that allow me to break these out based on them being separated by "\n" or if that it not possible, I can also add a ";" at the end of each line to simplify the formula if it helps!Example Data:abc_def-gh_ij-x-kl_mno-pqu-first-msg-x-240101abc_def-gh_ij-x-kl_mno-pqu-second-msg-x-240102abc_de

Hello,I am trying to make the process of time tracking more user-friendly. Instead of using the duration field and writing manually each time record, I would like to use two single select fields as StartTime and EndTime pickers, each containing values 00:00, 00:15, 00:30, 15:30, 15:45, 16:00, etc.But I am stuck with a formula that makes a magic difference between these two times.Is it even possible with a formula, or does it need to be done with some sort of script?Thank you

Hello Everyone,I am wondering if there is a formula to replace these characters "<"  and ">" that take the place of the "<"  and ">" when I import a CSV from Webflow into Airtable. Mailchimp is not able to read it as is. Thanks very much! 

HelloIs there a way to include hyperlinks in a base? I am importing data from Excel, where I collected the profile of n individuals and for each profile I have general information (name, education, job title etc) and a link to their LinkedIn page. When I paste or import the data into Airtable, however, the links turn into plain text. Does Airtable support hyperlink functionality? Thanks in advance!

I am struggling to figure out an IF/THEN statement that includes an OR. Here is what I'm needing it to do.I want to say "If there is anything populated in Column A, I want it to pull it into Column C. And if there is anything populated in Column B, I want it to pull into Column C, as well." Here is my current formula       IF(OR({DMSID Formula},{EG DMSID Formula}),{DMSID Formula},{EG DMSID Formula}) This is pulling in "Column A" (DMSID Formula) into "Column C", but it is not pulling in "Column B" (EG DMSID Formula).  Any suggestions??? I appreciate any help that anyone can provide!

Hi,I cant for the life of me find a formula to I have 3 date columns in each record, only one of these will be populated per record, i want to create an additional single column which would auto populate with the date from either of these 3 fields so i can format it to a week number (and YY of possible).Is this possible to do and if so can anyone help with the formulae for this please?Thank you so much, Sarah 🙂

Hello everyone! I'm a new member in the airtable community and wanted help on my airtable problems. I currently have a base table that receives emails, the problem currently is that it saves the whole email chain instead of just the email itself. I wanted to ask if there's a way (scripting/formula) to automatically remove  lines of texts after the word "From:" for every new entry that comes in.  Thank you!  

Hello Everybody, I am new to Airtable, would like to ask for a formula that shows me all records coming next month depending on a start date. in other words, I am sending this for operations people, and they want to see all their projects a month ahead. Can you guys help me with that?

Can someone please help - I’m not sure if a formula, rollup, lookup or another option is best for this scenario. In order to job cost correctly, I do not need the duplicates of the payment amount, as it will show more was paid. I see a way around this by adjusting the amount due, however, with multiple people entering data, and checks being cut differently, based on 3rd party financing department details of payment are not known until the check is cut, typically 30-days after the invoice is received. When a contractor submits an invoice and it is paid as a partial payment - I am currently entering the information twice to keep up with the accounting end, however, as you can see from the example below it looks as if there is still a balance due, when in fact the invoice is closed out with no balance. Thank you.

I need to re-establish a formula all ready created for our Content Title field?  I changed this to a Single line text and it changed the whole field, how do I change it back?

Hi,Somehow Airtable doesn't understand my dates as dates so grouping goes wrong. In an interface I have a list of booked events that I want to be grouped by their date. That way, I can easily see day by day how many events are booked. The grouping column is based on a formula picking out only the date from another column where the full date/time is stored.As a European I prefer 'DD.MM.YYYY' as the format, so my formula to give only the date is:DATETIME_FORMAT({date/time},'DD.MM.YYYY')This gives me visually 27.5.2024 for May 27, 2024, which is what I want. The grouping result, however, becomes like this:02.06.202414.06.202422.05.202428.5.202431.5.2024Grouping is apparently performed on the first digits, not as dates.Why doesn't Airtable understand a date that is only formatted into DD.MM.YYYY as a date?Rgds,Björn

Working with birthdays where I only know the client's Month/Day and not their Year of birth.  So text field is 5/12 for example but I'd like to have an actual date of 5/12 so I can set up reminders 5 days before the actual birthday.  I used the following formula but it's not working correctly.  DATETIME_PARSE(Birthday, 'MM/DD')Thank you in advance

So let's say I have a table that is going to have different numbers in rows listed in a single column, like below.2331618And in another table, I have some ranges filled into two columns, with a min column and max column, and a third column with a name, like so below.0-10 Sally 11-20 Joe21-30 Bob31-40 JaneNow how do I have the first table use the second table to evaluate a number to determine which range it fits into so that it can show me the name in the first table?23 Bob31 Jane6 Sally18 JoeI'm OK with formulas prior to this need, but now I am totally lost. I don't know if I am supposed to use rollups, lookups, linked tables or what. I've never linked tables before and I need a guru to translate my need into something that gives me a clue on what to try. 1st time here on this forum.It's like I want to say "see which range my number fits into and display the name for
