Formulas

I’m brand new to Airtable and getting to grips with it all so forgive me if this is a simple and stupid question. I’ve got a table logging expenses by two people. I’m using a currency field to add the amounts spent by each person. Now I want a second table that shows the overall funds both people start out with and then a field that shows the current funds available which updates according to the expenses logged in the expenses table. Can someone explain to me how to do that? I don’t even know what sort of keywords to look for in the help sections. Thank you so much for any help! Anna

Hello all,I currently am trying to create a formula in which I calculate days since last contact, with some of the source cells either being blank or having "N/A" as a value. I plan to make cells either all blank or "N/A" if the person hasnt been contacted. what I am trying to do is have a tonow(date of last contact) formula in which if the cell is blank or N/A it states "N/A" instead of "invalid date".Thanks!

Hi there!I'm wondering if there's a way I can add a distinction for fields that have the same data. For example, there's two entries that are on the same date (09-22-2023). I have been trying to find out a way to somehow, say, put 09-22-2023a and then 09-22-2023b so I know which one is entered first and so on.I'd appreciate any insights. Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone! 🙂In one table, i got Name + Surname + Email AddressIn another table, i only got Email Address, but i need to fill in the Name + Surname that i have in the other table.How could i do this?Thanks a lotMarco

I cannot decide if I'm better off with an automation or else I'm just not meant to do if else formulas. I need to first check if a date field is not blank. If it is not blank, then I want to compare it with another date field. If it's later than other date field I want to show 'launch date moved out'. I know this formula is not comparing but it's what I ended up with (and it's not working)IF({Original Launch Date} & "-"THEN {Launch Date}>{Original Launch Date},'Launch Delayed') 

Using the "created_at" field, I need a new date field (due_date) that takes created_at and adds x number of days. It's easy to do this with a formula field, and I have that set up already.However, I also need the flexibility of being able to manually overwrite the due_date if necessary. Forumla fields can not be edited. How can I benefit from the efficiency of auto-calculating a due date + the flexibility of manually adjusting if necessary?Thanks!

Hi, I'm trying to make a formula that combines different records to a readable title.I'd like to add the Product field to the formula, but only if it has not more than one value and only if the value is not 'Algemeen'. The last part I can fix, but I need some help with the check for the amount of values. The current formula combines 5 fields, with only a check for the Product field. Any help for the extra check is appreciated. {Team} & "-" & {ID} & " | " & IF({Product} != 'Algemeen', {Product} & " | ", "") & {Section} & " | " & {Name}

Hi,I am trying to create a simple IF Statement to produce the result PASS or FAIL if the value in another column is >= 80%:  In Column 1 ('% germination rate on second check') are % figures with values ranging from 0% to 100%. The purpose of the Column 2 ('PASS/FAIL'), is to produce the word 'PASS' if the value of Column 1 is >= 80%, or 'FAIL' if otherwise. Currently all cells in Column 2 are showing 'FAIL', irrespective of the % figure showing in Column 1. Is this some kind of syntax or formatting error on my end? Here is my formula: IF({% germination rate on second check} >= 80, "PASS", "FAIL")Thanks for the help! 🙂

Hi,To explain a bit : We have workshops that happen on different dates and people can register to those in a form.So I created a formula with the name of the workshop + the date of the workshop. I want that, in the form, people can only chose on date at the time. Now they can register for multiple dates and it creates complicate data for confirmation emails and reminders.So I was thinking that if the formula (Name + date) was a single select, they could only register at one but if there is another way, I take any advices 🙂Can anyone help me? 

I am using a mid formula to extract a string of text. The string appears as expected in the cell, but when Make (Integromat) runs the search it is adding an extra space before the string. " <string>" If the empty space is present, wouldn't I see it in the cell?I have checked over an over again to verify there is no extra space in the formula in Make. I have also changed my formula to +2, +2.Variations of this MID formula works with other use cases, this is the only one inserting an extra space. Is there a better way to do this? MID( {Summary}, FIND( ':', {Summary} )+1, FIND( ',', {Summary}, FIND( ':', {Summary} ) )-(FIND( ':', {Summary} )+1) )  

Requesting some guidance here. I'm new to Airtable and have read some documentation but have not fund any examples similar to my use case. I have a single select data field that I need to convert each selection items to a numeric value that can then be leveraged in a calculated field that will score an item in the table.How can this be done in Airtable?

I have 5 fields (WBS1, WBS2, WBS3, WBS4, WBS5) which are all different levels of WBS and I have a formula that combines it all into 1 number: WBS1& IF(WBS2="","","."&WBS2 & IF(WBS3="","", "."&WBS3 &IF(WBS4="","","."&WBS4 &IF(WBS5="","","."&

Hello, all.I'm new to Airtable and I need to create a form that tracks how many hours my coaching team is meeting with individuals each month. Each entry would be a new meeting, and I meet with individuals only once each month. Ideally, it would all exist on a single table. Each row would need to have the following information: Individual's name, date, duration, coach, Notes. Ideally, I would have another column that sums the month's hours as I go, call it "Hours this month".I assume there should be a formula that can do that for me, but I haven't for the life of me been able to utilize my Excel knowledge to create a working formula for AT.Any recommendations or alternatives to how I can approach this?

Hi folks,I'm have a dataset of events in Airtable with each event as a row, and each row has a different number of sessions that can make up the complete event. This means I have 8 end date & time columns to capture the finish time of each session. I need a column that will dynamically show the end date & time of the whole event, regardless of the number of sessions so that I can use this in various calendar/timeline views in Airtable.I've attempted to pull them all into an IF statement, like this:IF({Session 8 end time},DATETIME_FORMAT({Session 8 end time},'DD/MM/YY h:mm A'),IF({Session 7 end time},DATETIME_FORMAT({Session 7 end time},'DD/MM/YY h:mm A'),IF({Session 6 end time},DATETIME_FORMAT({Session 6 end time},'DD/MM/YY h:mm A'),IF({Session 5 end&n

Hello everyone.  I am trying to create a formula with the following logic: I have two fields (A and B) and these fields can contain different kind of values. Let's say that field A contains value A and field B contains value B, then I want the formula field to return a specific price. The same goes for an example where field A contains value C and field B still contains value B (then it's a different price). How would a formula like that look like?

I'm trying to improve the content calendar we are using. I have a Content Field, which is the full post that we're going to copy and paste into Facebook. I'd like to have a column that will pull just the first line of the post using a formula. Any ideas on how to do this? For example, here is a post that would be in the content field:🌟 Fun-filled Learning at Ditebogo Daycare in Video Informal Settlement! These awesome educators are all about hands-on learning experiences for their kiddos. Recently, they organized a super-fun day filled with science experiments, face painting, and, wait for it... ice cream! 🍦🎨🔬Speaking of science, do you remember playing with Oobleck as a child? It's that magical goo that can be both a liquid and a solid depending on how you touch it. Now, here's the best part - Ditebogo Daycare isn't

Hi 🙂I have a formula field "TASK" that checks if there is value in fields or not.  It looks like this;IF({Fuel L}=BLANK(),CONCATENATE("• Add fuel tank", '\n')) Now, I want to have another multiple-select "CLEAR" field that clears the TASK value if the corresponding value is included in multiple select fields. For example {Fuel L} is blank, but in the CLEAR field "Fuel L" is selected. This setting should not show   "• Add fuel tank" in TASK field. I tried with FIND(), but I should use something as not FIND()... I would appreciate help to accomplish this. Thank you,Pjero
