Formulas

Hi all, Im struggling to figure out why a formula in my table produces a blank response vs the intended result... I can provide more context if needed but suspect the error is more obvious to some of you and context is irrelevant. LMK if context is needed.  The formula is: IF({Junction}=1,LEFT({Status},1) & [Product}," ")'Junction' field can have only two possible results 1 or zero. I would like that if a record contains a 1 in this field, that this new field formula produces a text string that combines the status and product, (eg "Ongoing - Product A") It's not doing that though... it's producing just " ") What have I got wrong? 😞

Hi, i would like to ask for help if there's a way to get the count in group view maybe via automation or scripting. (please see screenshot). Though we have a count My goal is to check one of my field when the program is under the same metro schools - cna & other licenses and same provider full name. Most likely, if the highlighted number here is 1 it should automatically be checked. On the other hand, there are instances when the highlighted number is more than 1.  (please see screenshot below). In this case, I will just randomly check anything or base it in the program with Upcoming class.For now, I manually check all the programs which is very time consuming. I hope you can help me. Thank you!

I’m trying to find the correct syntax for a formula that will compare two lookup fields, each with multiple values, to find the common values. I see similar questions posted but don’t seem to find anything that fits what I’m trying to accomplish, so any help would be appreciated. Here’s the scenario: I have three tables: Vendor Database, Product List and States. The Vendor Database has a Lookup Field for the Product List and a Lookup Field for States, and typically has multiple values in each field, since many of my vendors have several items available in a few states in the U.S. I have another table that includes all my incoming requests, and my goal is to see which vendors have service in the specific state requested. Here’s what I have so far: In my Workflow table where I have views for requests, I have a Lookup Field for Vendors with Services and another for Vendors in State and the results are perfect in those two fields. I want to compare the two to find common values that will s

Hi there,I'm experiencing a strange situation with a simple formula. Here's what i'm using:WORKDAY_DIFF({Date-test-1}, {Date-test-2})-1 I set date-test-1 to Today's date (Friday). If I set "Date-test-2" to next Monday, the result is correct: 1(Note that my dates are in european format) If I set it to next Friday, the result is correct: 5 It seems that it does it perfectly whenever Date test is a future date. I also want to calculate the working days between today and a past date, and here's where i'm getting strange results:Setting Date-test-2 to Yesterday, Thursday, the result is: -3, should be -1 Setting it to last Friday, the result is: -7, should be -5 Any explanation on why this is is happening? I could do an easy trick, and add +2 whenever the date is past, but I can't understand why this is happening, so i don't know if this fix would stay consistent. Thanks in advance! Javier

Hi! I just moved over here from Quickbase. On QB, when I did a search, all the matching results appeared, and no other records were showing.In my new Airtable, my search results in a single highlighted instance of the matching search result, and I must keep hitting the down arrow to see the remaining matches.Is there something I can set up, such as a view or whatever, that will behave similarly? My customers are asking for this behavior because they're used to it, and I'd like to help them.Thanks, Eric

I've got an events calendar and an automation set up so that event registrants will get an email 6 hours prior to an event, using a formula field and the TONOW formula:TONOW({Start})The automation sends an email when the formula field reads "6 hours".The trouble is, the field renders "6 hours" twice - once 6 hours before the event and again 6 hours after the event, so it triggers the automation to run again 6 hrs after the event.Can anyone recommend a better formula to get what I'm looking for here?Thanks!!!

I think what I am wanting to do is also possible with a rollup field. However, I can't get it to work.I have a column that I want to add all the values on a different table. Table 1 has all the prices in it.Item 1 > Shoe > $39.95Item 2 > Shoe > $39.95Item 3 > Shirt > $19.95 I want to add all the "Shoes" together in Table 2 and display that total. So I made a rollup field and said if the values in table 1 match "shoes" then "insert formula here"I tried using SUM....but I am not doing something right. Am I overthinking this? XD

I am trying to create a button to make calls and mail using URL "mailto:xyz@abc.com" but I am not able to use that. Can you suggest me something?  The email address and phone number are stored in different columns.

I am trying to design a record keeping system for a market garden. One of the key pieces is recording events that happen to a garden bed - e.g. transplanting, seeding, harvesting, bed preparation events. The record is the date of the event.I am having trouble making a simple system for when there are multiple "parts" to an event. E.g. the "preparation" event has 4 inputs (which come from an "input" record table, which I would like to be able to break down & summarise the costings of. The user would select the name of the input and it would look up the APPLICATION RATE(KG/m3) the BED SIZE receiving the amendment, the COST/KG. This is then summarized in a formula which multiplies APPLICATION RATE (KG/m3)*COST/KG*BED SIZE. This is simplest if I can make the input field link to multiple records - however, my formula for costings won't work if there are multiple records in each of those look up tables.Is there any way to deal with this? I am new to this kind of stuff, so

Hi dear community 🙂I try to build a crowdfunding platform for real estate using Airtable.Users can choose the project to invest in and make a payment.   I am able to see all users and in what project they invested in Here are all transactions users made The struggle is to pay every user based on the amount they invested in each project because each project has a different dividend % and users can invest in 2-3 different projects in different periods. I somehow need to add to their profile what they earn every month. Any ideas on how to make it a reality? 🙂 Thank you 🙂

I do a lot of networking for my job, and many networking groups that I visit have weekly meetings. I can't attend all of them every week, but I like to keep track of their meetings in case I can use them fill a gap in my schedule. To do this, I would like to have a formula that allows me to enter the day of the week (i.e. Wednesdays), and it calculates the next upcoming date (the 12th).I've found a formula that will calculate the next Tuesday from a given date, and I think I can retool it so it will calculate the next Tuesday from today, but I need one that allows for variation in the day of the week, so that it will calculate the next Tuesday for a group that meets Tuesdays and the next Wednesday for groups that meet Wednesdays, etc. 

Hello!I have a formula that calculates commission and I need to add an additional calculation that is tripping me up. I am starting with the following formula.SUM(IF({Commission Based On},{Commission Based On},{Purchase Price (Current/Final)})*{Commission %})+ {Commission Flat Fee}+{Admin/Office Fee}+{Other Fee}-{Concession}-{Referral Flat Fee}I added the following field to my table and need to add it to the formula.{Referral %} The first part of the current formula takes the purchase price and multiplies it by the commission % plus the commission flat fee.SUM(IF({Commission Based On},{Commission Based On},{Purchase Price (Current/Final)})*{Commission %})+ {Commission Flat Fee}But next I need it to take the result of the first part of the formula (which would be the total commission amount), multiply it by {Referral %}, add {Referral Flat Fee}, then subtract those two resulting amounts from the commission amount.Then I will add/subtract the remaining items.Any help would

In the following top portion of my pre-fill code, everything works fine except when there are duplicate records in the Asset Name field.All the other pre-filled items work fine. But when there are duplicate Asset Name values, the form displays nothing in the Asset to Update form item.This duplication is expected and I was thinking I should somehow refer to the Record ID as well so the code will grab to correct record:CONCATENATE(IF("Prefilling [Update Asset] view in [Assets Updates] table in base with id 'appZyoL5fNNYcN6dv'","https://airtable.com/shr7hLXk437tBSfOb"),CONCATENATE("?prefill_" & ENCODE_URL_COMPONENT("Asset to Update"),"=" & ENCODE_URL_COMPONENT({Asset Name } & "")),CONCATENATE("&prefill_" & ENCODE_URL_COMPONENT("Original Module"),"=" & ENCODE_URL_COMPONENT({Module COPY} & "")),What code should I use to clarify the Asset Name to pre-fill when there are duplicate Asset Names?Thanks for any ideas. Charlie

I want to use this mathematical formula to calculate the "average" diameter at breast height (DBH) of a tree with multiple stems:DBHavg = SQRT({DBH1}^2 + {DBH2}^2 + {DBH3}^2 + {DBH4}^2)This is the formula I used:SQRT(POWER({DBH 1 (cm)}, 2) + POWER({DBH 2 (cm)}, 2) + POWER({DBH 3 (cm)}, 2) + POWER({DBH 4 (cm)}, 2)) This formula returns an error for most records because most trees only have one or two stems. Only trees with numbers in all six fields will correctly calculate a value. How can I change the formula so it calculates the square root of however many DBH values are present for a particular record?

Hello all, This is my first time posting here! Apologies if the explanation is not the most succinct. I need help with creating a formula to work within an intricate email and list management system I've set up. I have two tables: Email --> Each record is an email being produced, tracking copy, design, and deploymentE.G. "Women's Board meeting 2 invite email" List management --> Each record corresponds to a named list of contacts from our CRM.E.G.

Hi all,I have created a table that houses outputs from ChatGPT; namely creating assessments. I am currently prompting the output to create an assessment section by section. Each section contains a number of questions, which as per the prompt, are referred to as 'Question 1', 'Question 2', 'Question 3'. I want to extract each question and populate them as new records so that I can create marking guides and model answers for them. What would be the formula I could use or script I could run to extract each question from the string? See an example of a generated section below:-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Total Marks: 15Instructions: Please read each question and select the best possible answer from the options provided.Question 1 (3 marks): Which of the following laws in South Africa is the highest law?A. Labour LawB. Traffic LawC. Medical LawD. Constitution 

I need a formula for the column on the right that writes a number 1 to the first result on the left, a 2 to the second result, etc.I don't need an autonumber, this is because when the left column changes the numbers, the autonumber stays the same. Is there any way? 

I'm trying to set up an automated email to send clients after their first booking with my business. What formula can I use to identify if the record (booking) is the first one for that client (linked record from another table)?I don't want to manually check a box to trigger the automation, as that means first manually checking if it is their first booking, and that defeats the purpose.All I can think of is something like;IF Booking Count = 0 at time of Record Created, then = YESAny ideas on how this can be done? Let me know if you need more information.

This will be a long post, and a intricate task because Airtable somehow in 2023 doesn't have a "date is current month" type of filters.I want to in my interface dashboard to summarize the total sales value within the current month. And in a statistics summary show the total sales pr month.The rightmost box is is currently filtering the sales done within a month ago, which is not the correct setup.When it's april, that one should only display April sales, not anything from March.I have already a formula field that declares the date the sale was done, which is the field called "Salg".What i need the formula to do is to return "1" or "true" if it's this month.And then i will filter the summary to only calculate the sales value on the records which are a match to whatever value we create in the formula....  I appreciate any help i can get here. 

I am quite new to airtable, i am trying to create a formula that says if an end date exists THEN subtract today's date from the end date column ELSE calculate days remaining in the month.I have checked through various date formulas on the community and i do not find a fomrula that directly calculates days remaining between today and month end if there is no value in the field 'end date'.Can someone help please?

I'm putting the below formula but it keeps coming up with an error message - any ideas why when each part seems to work independently.  IF({Always On/Miniseries} = "Always On" , {Total Budget (USD)}*((13-{Number (from Start Date)})/12) ), IF({Always On/Miniseries} = "Mini Series", {Total Budget (USD)}*{Year 1 (from Mini Series Amort) (from Start Date)})
