Client Fee Formula

[Luke_Nichol]

Hi, good people of the Airtable community!

I am a therapist who sees clients. Each client will be charged a fee in Great British Pounds (£). If attended, a client will be charged £50. If a client does not attend or provides a late cancellation, their fee will be £35. I have a Google Calendar synced table. I have added one tick box column titled ‘Did Not Attend?’.

I want a formula that records £50 if attended (default state) but changes the fee to £35 if I tick the box that denotes a did not attend/late cancellation status.

A little problem to be solved that I hope someone might enjoy.

This is a very basic IF() formula. Also set the formatting options for the field to currency with the appropriate symbol.

IF(
  {Did Not Atttend?},
  35,
  50
)

If you want to get more out of Airtable, I highly recommend learning more about writing formulas. While people on these forums are often helpful in coming up with formulas, it can take a while and your development will go much easier if you learn to create these types of formulas yourself. I also recommend the formula field reference.
