Formulas

Hey friendsI have a column of customer full names.I would like to separate this column into 2 separate columns - one for first names and the other for last names.I used the following formula (screenshot attached) to separate the first and last names, but there is a problem:If someone entered only their first name without a last name, the column remains empty and I don't understand why.I would be very happy for your help in this matter!Thank you 

I am new here, so please forgive me if I ask a question that might have been asked before.I keep track of my software subscriptions with Airtable, some are monthly based and some are yearly. Therefore, I created a single selection field with two options (monthly, yearly) and a date field that shows when the subscriptions are due. Now I would like to automatically update the due date after it has passed under the condition of monthly or yearly. I had something in mind like: IF ({subscription} = "yearly", NOW(), DATEADD( *1, 'year')({subscription} = "monthly", NOW(), DATEADD( *1, 'month')I guess it's terribly wrong, since it never worked 😭 

Hey friendsI have a connection to Airtable that transfers every new lead to my table.I have a date column and an hour column, but I don't know how to separate it, so every time a new lead is updated, it is only updated with the date and the hour remains empty.How can I separate them so that both columns are updated with the relevant details?Thank you!

Hey, I have been looking for a while and I'm stuck.I am organizing group calls with 3-6 people per call.  After each call I want to each participator to fill out a form, giving feedback for each other participator on that call. The challenge I'm running into is how to collect feedback for each participator from each other participator. I went down the rabbit hole with prefilled forms, but I cannot connect the actually rating to each person. Maybe I've just hit the limit for airtable forms, but I'm curious if I'm missing anything obvious. Happy to explain more if this is unclear (however I was reluctant to share screenshots with personal detail)

Hey All,I'm mocking something up and wondering if I've designed these tables incorrectly.I'm trying to create a connection between two tables (1. "Adjustment Funding Matrix" and 2. "All Adjustments Info," and specifically the "Policy Threshold" and "Final" fields both of which are in this latter table.)My goal is to make it so that based on the thresholds set by the "Adjustment Funding Matrix" table, depending on the financial amount in "Final," I'd like to make the "Policy Threshold" field in "All Adjustments Info" display the information in the corresponding "Policy" column from "Adjustment Funding Matrix."Is that possible the way I've set this up through a conditional relationship, a trigger, or something else? Thanks.

I have a table containing info on contacts. My goal is a list of e-mail adresses from that table.The wanted e-mail adresses will typically be a subset from the main table. Here are among other things two fields saying something about every contact and these fields are the type "Multiple select".I would like to make a formular by which one can decide the wanted subset of e-mail adresses and then get them as a kind of list to be easily inserted in the to-field in a mailproram. The choise should be made with the mutiple select-fields.Does anybody have ideas on how to do that? Any hint will be deeply appreciated!

Doing a simple add 2 or 3 days to a start date. DATEADD(Start,3,'days')   ---Note: the field names are purple but no longer add the {  } ??? I tried both ways. That adds just fine, however, when I change the 3 to a lookup field called Days formatted as integer it seems to subtract a day. or not any at all with different variations. DATEADD(Start,Days,'days')Can a number be pulled from a lookup field be used like this or do I need to cast the value somehow to a #Numnber format? When I use a field in the same table that is a number (integer) it works as expected.&n

Hi, I am stuck with a riddle ) I'm a newbie still don't know much. Any help is highly appreciated.I have several tables:1. Customers2. Products3. Currency4. Warehouse5. Accounts6. Operations8. Operations_Detail9. Acc I have two things that I need:1. when I create sales invoice in Operations, I need to create several records in operations with same AnalyticTag (column) as in created Invoice, but different Expense category (column).1.1 These records must be either profiled, or either from template - but this is different story I guess. 2.

For example, I have Customer 1, Account 1 and Currency 1, 2, 3What I need is, when creating customer or account record, or adding new currency record, have a table in ACC like this:row 1 customer 1 currency

Hi All,I have a Calendar table within a base that we use to assign calendar events to Airtable users. We also share the calendar link with everyone so the calendar will populate on their iPhone calendar and such.  Because of this, we want to show what event is assigned to which user in the calendar event ID (labeled "Event" in the screenshot below).  We currently do this with a concatenate formula but it will show each users full name, which makes the Event ID very long.  Current Event formula is as follows and works fine: CONCATENATE(IF({Tentative?}=1,"(t) ",""),Project, " ",{Service Call}," ", RMA," ",Title,

Can someone help me out.  I'm want Airtable to return the "Column name" after he compares 4 adjacent cells in the same row. I expected to be something like...if(@A>@B AND(@A>@C) AND(@A>@D), "A")if(@B>@A AND(@B>@C) AND(@B>@

Hey guysI have a brain drain problem with how I should set up a dynamic date formula, I have 2 tables in a base, one for odd weeks and one for even weeks. They both just contain 5 records, one for each workday. I have separate fields where the current date is shown, current weekday, current week number and if the current week is odd or even (it shows 0 for even and 1 for even). Now to the tricky part.I want to show in a field in the even table (week 50), lets say today Wednesday the 14th of dec. I want todays date to be visible in that field, on Tuesday the 13th should be visible and on tomorrow the 15th and so on. And I also want if the dates in the odd table shows next weeks date, and then when it becomes an odd week the even table updates the dates to the week after the odd. Any of you geniuses have a solution in mind?

I'm trying to detect overlaps between my records and display data from the respective other records they're overlapping with, but am struggling yet again with creating the right regular expression for the REGEX_EXTRACT. Currently I'm...Creating an identifier field that helps recognize overlap (where identifier is equal = overlap).Creating an data field that includes the identifier and additional data that I want to display.Roll-up the data fields related to the linked record.

Hi, Im struggling to improve my data base and i ve found something that i don´t even know if its possible to be done. I have a formula field which shows a check , made with IF function, depending on the conditions of other fields. But the issue is that sometimes, i need to show a check also when those conditions are not fulfilled, i mean to edit it manually. The thing is that only happens on some records that fulfill a determined condition, so my idea is to look for that condition on the corresponding field, then allow the manual edition, and then count those records in the summary count.Is that possible?Thank you very much in advance.

Hi there!I'm building a booking system for a Go Kart hire company. I need to be able to detect if a new booking I am making will clash with other bookings.I have a date field "Date" and multi-select "Race Time" field (with races or selections every 10 mins starting at 9:00am up until 9:00pm). It needs to be multi-select to avoid mis-spellings.I would need an automation or formula that lets me know if any bookings are clashing based on both the Date and Race Times. I have also considered Make.com (Integromat) but I can't quite get the Airtable functions right it seems.It would also need to be able to indicate which record the booking is clashing with.Is there any way to do this?

Hello everyone! I've made this Table: The idea with the table is to show different kind of tasks, sorted by Week and Day. Right now when a task is completed, I will click on the 'Næste gang?' field and choose whether the task should be listed in the daily or weekly view. If it's a daily task, I will choose 'Daglig' and for weekly tasks I will choose 'Ugentlig'. However when I do that, this happens: Instead of the task being re-created in the right view, it's being added in an Empty view. I therefore manually have to add it to the right view by clicking in the 'Hyppighed' field and select either Weekly or Daily. What I want here is the task to automatically be added to the right view. Also I

Hi, I'm trying to do an inner join (find elements in common between 2 columns).How can I do that here?I saw the functions Concatenate and Arrayjoin, but I didn't find anything about Inner join, maybe I'm looking in the wrong place. Is it possible to do it? Thank you😊 

My end goal is to calculate the Flesch–Kincaid readability of a given text field ("Copy (Required)"). In order to do that, I need to determine how many syllables are in that text.Syllabification is somewhat of a subjective thing, but the approach that I've chosen is to use a series of nested REGEX_REPLACE functions inside a formula field based on this approach from Guilherme D. Garcia. The resulting formula looks like this: REGEX_REPLACE( REGEX_REPLACE( REGEX_REPLACE( REGEX_REPLACE( REGEX_REPLACE( {Copy (Required)}, "([aeiou])", "\\1-" ), "-$", "" ), "-([bcdfghjklmnpqrstvxz]$)", "\\1" ), "-(n|r|st)(t|n|d|f)", "\\1-\\2" ), "([aeiou])-s([tpnml])",

I have a zap that pushes 3 cells with comma-separated values, the first one being the part or service names, for example [trip, labour] the second cell is the quantities [1, 3.5] and the third one the prices [60, 120] to our invoices table.How can I extract that information and create a record in another table (line items) every time  a new record is added to the Invoices table.

I have this relational feature of 2 tables:Table 1 (material) and Table 2 (material attributes)Now, Material Table has one or many material attributes (Table 2).I've been stuck with this feature where I can filter all the records belongs to Material ID (1234567)I checked the datatype of the reference ID and its an array. Now how can I filter all the material attributes that belongs to the specific Material?I tested all the helper functions of FilterByFormula and the response is not correct. It returns a mixture of IDs that does not belong to the given material ID.Thanks for the help!!
