Result type is not a number or a date

[Erik_Koster]

I have added a formula IF({Töö sisu} = “Hooldus”, “17”,IF({Töö sisu} = “Transport”, “7”, “”)) and the result is not a number so I cant format it nor can I use sum function. I need the 7 to be 7€ so I can count the sum.

Don’t use ", that is making the number to be a string. Also, you don’t need the second IF.

Same problem here, but I’m not wrapping numbers in “”.

[Dean_Arnold]

Here’s my formula:
IF(ItemPriceUSD>0,ItemPriceUSD1)&IF(ItemPriceCNY>0,ItemPriceCNYExRateCNY)

There are no " in my formula, and all the fields used in the formula are numbers.

I need access to number formatting for the formulated number, but I still keep getting the “Your result type is not a number” message.

Is this a bug or a feature?
@Elias_Gomez_Sainz ?

The & is making it a string, I think. You want to concatenate 2 prices? Or you want to include 2 conditions? You can use an AND() to use several conditions in an IF().

Spot on!

The & was making it a string.

I changed the formula to a Nested IF statement and the number formatting options returned.
