Hi,

I am making what to me seems like a simple change to a simple IF Formula.

 
The prior version of the formula was: 
IF({Money Out},-ABS({Money Out}),IF({Money In},ABS({Money In})))

This is the new formula. 

IF({Money Out},-ABS({Money Out}),IF({Money In},ABS({Money In})),IF({Debit or Credit},{Debit or Credit}))
 
For some reason, even after I press "SAVE" after updating the formula, when I go out of the field and come back to the field, I see the prior version of the formula. I do NOT get any ERROR messages. 
 
And tried repeatedly to update the formula.
 
I have tried the cache refresh with Com + Shift + R
 
I even closed all AirTable browser windows, and logged out and logged back in to AirTable. No Joy.
 
Any help would be welcome.

It’s because you have too many parentheses after the 2nd Money In, and not enough at the very end of the formula.

And yes, Airtable could do a significantly better job of handling stuff like this.
