What’s wrong with this formula? It references a single field named ‘Date’. That field usually will have a valid date in it, but in some cases the field might be left empty. In a separate formula field I’m trying to use this formula but it’s not working. IF ( Date = BLANK(), “Date Missing”, DATETIME_FORMAT(Date,‘YYYYMMDD’) ) What’s wrong with that? How else do I test to see if a field is empty? William

I have a column to which records can be added or deleted (Players). In another table I am trying to build a single select type field from which the user can select one option from the Players column. The options for this single select will need to be dynamic, read from the Players column at the time of selection. Is there a way to achieve this?

Use Case: I sell widgets and the quantity of widgets generates will generate (with a formula) the number of boxes that will be required to ship the order. I have a view filtered for orders ready to ship and export this information to a .csv and then import the orders into my shipping application, stamps.com. Upon import, each row corresponds to a shipping label. The challenge is that I have to duplicate the rows x number of times to match the required number boxes. Is there a way to way to automate this process? My hunch is that it can be done with a script. However, I have 0 experience working with scripts. I’m happy to learn if this is the case and someone wants to point me in the right direction. I also have Zapier at my disposal if this helps solve the problem. Help or support would be greatly appreciated.

Why would this return blank and no errors? IF(AND({Status}=“AM: Follow Up on Proposal”,{24 Hours}=“2 Days”,“yes”,“no”)) Fields: Status=Single select 24 Hours=Formula

Hi everyone. I have 3 Columns. DUE DATE, PLANNING WEEKS & DEPARTURE DATE I want to use a formula that sets the DUE DATE by looking at the DEPARTURE DATE and subtracts the number of PLANNING WEEKS. In other words, I want to automatically set my DUE DATE of each task by the PLANNING WEEKS before we depart(DEPARTURE DATE). I hope this makes sense. Thank you so much. This will save us hours of planning. Brian.

Hello - I thought this would be rather easy to do, but something doesn’t seem to be working functionally. Any ideas why? I’d like to get the position of the word “Education” within the Company Industry (Lookup) field, which is a lookup on a second table. Why does it only work if it’s an exact match? And how can I adjust so that it also shows “1” for the fields with “Education Tech/Software”? (NOTE: I found it works if I change "Company Industry (Lookup) to a single line text, but I need the lookup formula) FIND("Education",{Company Industry (Lookup)})

I’ve been trying to display a Currency US Dollars with the traditional 2 digit cents, e.g. $24.31 But Airtable is not honoring the formating that’s been specified for my Cost Bais field. WHY?

Hi, my company uses Airtable to help project manage our operational processes. However, with safer in place enacted in California, we are unable to continue our operation for at least a month, and therefore we will not need the user accounts associated with our production managers until we can reopen. Since we are also looking for any ways we can cut costs right now, is it possible to suspend user accounts for a month and then re-enable them?

Airtable Newbie from Germany. On Android App right now. Set up my first base and tables. Customize fields: The first field I set up in each table can’t be reordered. It shows a lock sign (see screenshot). Even within new views it can’t be reordered. Why? Ought to be some kind of primary key field? Is there any way to reorder it? If not, I will always set these “first” fields up as auto-numbering fields. I did not find any information on this within help or community yet. Therefore your advice is appreciated. Thank you.

Hello, Is it possible for a good soul to fly to my rescue please? I wish to apply the following script on my base with the constraint that the calcul must be reset each time I pass on a new groupfield. Being a novice I don’t see how to modify my script to apply this constraint. The script I use is: let table = base.getTable(‘Data’); let view = table.getView(‘Grid view’); let result = await view.selectRecordsAsync({ sorts: [ {field: ‘Identifiant Fournisseur’}, ] }); let runningTotal = 0; for (let record of result.records) { runningTotal += record.getCellValue(‘Quantité Collectée’); await table.updateRecordAsync(record, { ‘Test’: runningTotal, }); }

Dear Airtablers, I fully accept that I might be working non-intuitively, and am looking for help and suggestions. I‘m attempting to keep my accounts under control and wish to flag up the 4 possible statuses I can conceive - either an invoice is „Paid on time“, „Paid late“, „Open“ (unpaid but not yet late) or the worst kind „Unpaid and late“. As a beginner I‘m having terrible trouble but not much fun finding out how to do it. I have the following fields: Date invoice sent Terms in days Due date (automatically generated from formula) Date paid (blank if open) Pay cycle (in how many days did my client pay?) Days late Punctual/late/unpaid? What I (think I) want: In „days late“, I want to show 3 things. Invoice on time (thumbs up) Invoice late and unpaid (exclamation mark and number of late days) Invoice late and paid (alarm clock and number of days late) So far I managed: IF({Pay cycle in days} >14, DATETIME_DIFF({Date paid},{Due date},"days")) How do I nest the next two settings,

Hello, I have a table that rolls up sums from two other tables and displays them in currency format. My hope and expectation is for these values to match, and if they do not, the record is flagged. I figured this would be a simple IF function that looks something like this: IF({Rollup 1}={Rollup 2},“ :white_check_mark: ”,“ :x: ”) The result is what is confusing me. I find that even if the two rolled up values match with an eye test, they might still be flagged as being unequal, I’ve tried changing the formatting and expanding out the number to see if it has to do with some hidden decimal but have had no luck. By all appearances, the numbers match exactly. I’m not sure if this has something to do with how the records in the linked tables are formatted either but figured that if the field being rolled up is in the same format, this shouldn’t matter either. Chances are that I’m missing something incredibly simple but if anyone has any advice on why this is happening and how I can get a pr

Hi community, I’m trying to create a grid view with groups like the below, based on an ‘Event Date’ field: share.getcloudapp.com – 20 Mar 20 Screenshot 2020-03-20 at 14.17.51.png Shared with CloudApp Year Formula: IF({Event Date}=BLANK(),"Date Missing",DATETIME_FORMAT({Event Date},'YYYY')) Month Formula IF({Event Date}=BLANK(),"Date Missing",DATETIME_FORMAT({Event Date},'MMMM')) Why is April coming before March? How do I fix this so that months are sorted in sequential order (eg March -> April -> May)? Many thanks in advance! Let me know if you need any other information from me on this.

Hi. I’m writing a novel with TONS of ideas, notes, characters, themes, etc. Any recommendations about how to use Airtable to organize all of this? Any examples of this that I can take a look at? Thanks! LAWRENCE

Hey there, In order to better manage my emailing campaigns and some of the auto replies I’m receiving I integrated my sending box with Airtable. To ease the cleaning I would like to add within a column a specific code based on the corpus of the auto reply. Here is an example of the formula I came up with: IF(SEARCH(“yyyy”,Corpus),“Click to validate”,IF(SEARCH(“XXXX”,Corpus),“Nothing”,IF(SEARCH(“aaaa”,Corpus),“Nothing”,IF(SEARCH(“bbb”,Corpus),“Nothing”,IF(SEARCH(“ccc”,Corpus),“Nothing”,IF(SEARCH(“ddd”,Corpus),“Unsubscribe & Check for address”,IF(SEARCH(“eeee”,Corpus),“Unsubscribe & Check for address”,IF(SEARCH(“fff”,Corpus),“Unsubscribe”,IF(SEARCH(“gggg”,Corpus),“Unsubscribe”,IF(SEARCH(“hhhh”,Corpus),“Unsubscribe”,IF(SEARCH(“iii”,Corpus),“Unsubscribe”,IF(SEARCH(“jjj”,Corpus),“Unsubscribe”,IF(SEARCH(“kkkk”,Corpus),“Click to validate”,))))))))))))) but it doesn’t seem to be working. Do you guys have any clue why? I may have to add new criteria moving forward. Thanks a lot in advan

Hi. If i pay for two users can I at any stage change who one or both of the users are? As long as I only have two users, does it matter who they are - ie are the fees attached to the number of users, not the individuals?

I feel like what I’m trying to do is simple, but I just can’t make it work. I want to remove the text in the brackets. Example below: [SUPV PROD - STAFF] Doe, John [SrDesign/Ani - FL] Doe, Alice [PRO/EDITOR - Ani] Smith, David I want to remove the all the text in the bracket and the brackets themselves. Desired results below: Doe, John Doe, Alice Smith, David The Bracketed text is always in the beginning of the string. Thanks!

I can’t seem to figure out this formula. Here is what I would like to do. Compares today’s date with a specific field date. If today’s date is after field date I want to multiple field A by 10. If today’s date is before field date, then I want to multiple field A by 50. Regardless of which calculation is done above, if the sum of the calculation is 1000 or above, then I want 1000 returned instead. For example, let’s say field A has a value of 50. If today’s date is after the field date, then the value returned would be 500. If however, today’s date was before the field date, then the value returned would be 1000 (even though the calculation would by 50 x 50 = 2500, the 1000 limit would override it). For the life of me, I can’t figure this out. Can anyone help?

Hi all, Is there a way to sum the number of years passed (as a whole number, rounded down) from a listed date to present? I’m using this for an asset register. There are 4 important columns: A) date of purchase B) original purchase value C) annual depreciation (as a %) D) current value I’m looking to write a formula for current value (D) that will multiply the annual deprectiation % © by the number of years that has passed since the date of purchase (years since A), then multiply that by the original purchase value (B). For example, if 3 years have passed since purchase date, the original price purchase value was $1,000, and the depreciation is 16.67%, it would be ((3*.1667)*1,000), returning a current value of $500.10. How do I get that 3 to caclucate automatically in a formula?
