Hello! I have a budget spreadsheet with spending categories (Gas, rent, utilities) and I'd like to create a formula so that when I enter my new completed month (September for example), my sheet can automatically assign the Gas category for any line items that have "Shell" as the description. I would like that formula to do so for every recurring description I may have for grocery stores and gas stations I frequent the most. How would I write that out?
Hello Patrick!
If I understand your task correctly, try the following formula:
=IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("Shell", A2)), "Gas", "")
For more information, please read: How to find substring in Excel.
If the upper/lower case is important to you, use FIND function instead of SEARCH.
When using the following command, how do I get the result "Service required" to display in red text?
=IF(J3<6;"Service required";"Service up to date")
if one cell in excel contains :5" and next cell contains "Decrease" than next column will apear "5-"
Hi! Based on the information you have provided, it is impossible to recommend a formula for you. However, you can do it yourself using these instructions: Excel IF function with multiple conditions
Hello Johan!
The IF formula does not allow you to change color and formatting of a cell. Conditional formatting allows you to change color of a cell depending on its value. You can find the examples and detailed instructions here: Excel Conditional Formatting tutorial with examples and Two ways to change color in Excel based on cell value.
Example of a conditional formatting formula depending on the result of an IF formula:
=K1="Service required"
You can also change the color depending on the values in column J. Follow this instruction: Excel conditional formatting formulas based on another cell.
=J1<6
Hi! Is this possible to use if function in this situation?
Like overtime hours is:
1:19 how can I get a result to this 1.25 hours in decimal?
And what is the formula to get night differential in morning time in like this:
time in is 3:00am how can get 3hours of night differential?
Thank you
Hello Alex!
The answer to your first question can be found in this article: How to convert time to decimal number in Excel. Your second question I can't understand.
Hi! I already get the formula to my question. But I have another question how can I round off the time 9:15am to 9:59am is equal to 10:00am?
Thank you.
Hello Alex!
To round off the time, determine the number of minutes using the MINUTE function. If greater than 15, use CEILING function to round up to next hour.
=IF(MINUTE(A1)>15,CEILING(A1, "1:00:00"),A1)
Thank you for your response. Can you help me this one?
Time in: 6:46am
Time out: 11:22am
I can't get the correct total number of working hours if I use this formula
=(B1-A1)*24
The result appear is 14:24hours it should be 4:36hours
The regular time formula is the same result If I use this formula
=MIN(8,C1)
It appears also 14:24
Hi! You get the number of hours, not the time, when you multiply by 24. So use the number format, not the time format. To find the difference in hours and minutes, read this guide:
How to calculate time in Excel - time difference, adding / subtracting times.
Hi all,
I need to use an if formula that need to have in the return value if true and value if false, both a phrase and a value from a cell (better if the format of the number is showing as accounting).
Ex.:=IF('page1'!O39>0,"Please see attached. Increased day over day by 'page1'!O39 ,Please see attached. Decreased day over day by 'page1'!O39")
Hello Rene!
To show the text and cell value, and combine them, use these instructions: How to concatenate in Excel - formula examples. For example:
"Please see attached. Increased day over day by" & 'page1'!O39
Hi all I need help
No is 0 to 1000, I need 3 results,
1 if the calculated no is less than 350 then use it , if more use 350.
2 if the calculated no is more than 350 but less than 500, use it, less the 350, if more use 500
3 if the calculated no is more than 500, use that no , less the 500
Tks
Hello Eric!
Their conditions contradict each other. Therefore, they cannot be combined in a formula. For example, which of your conditions would you apply to number 550? If you have multiple conditions, you can use this guide: Nested IF in Excel – formula with multiple conditions.
Im trying to maka a table that has this conditions
percentage A B C
100% 200 180 150
95-99% 170 150 120
90-94% 150 120 90
85-89% 120 90 60
80-84% 50 20 0
79% and below 0 0 0
How can easily get results from this table when i encode class and percentage
class percentage result
Person 1 A 93% _______
Result shoudl be 150
Hello Angela!
If I understand your task correctly, the following tutorial should help: INDEX MATCH MATCH to search in rows and columns.
However, you can't search for the number 93 in column A because it is text, not numbers.
If you write a value of 100, 99, 94, 89, 84, 79 in column A, you can use a formula like this:
=INDEX(B2:D6, MATCH(G1,A2:A6,-1), MATCH(G2,B1:D1,0))
You can learn more about MATCH function in this article on our blog: Excel MATCH function with formula examples.
This should solve your task.
Hi everybody, I have a question. Suppose if in an office the cut-off time is 9:00 am. If a staff entered office at 9:00 AM he will be marked "on time" in attendance sheet. but he entered at 9:05 AM, he will be marked "LATE". But if some one is on leave, how to formulate this in the attendance sheet with the two conditions mentioned before?
Hi! Create a nested IF formula as described in this guide: Nested IF in Excel – formula with multiple conditions. If there is no "Leave" value in a particular cell, then check the conditions that you have written about. For example:
=IF(A1="Leave","",IF(B1>TIME(9,0,0),"late","on time"))
Hi, i have a problem in excel formula.
If, -528 less -590 / -590 = 62
i want the result in percentage with positive sign instead of negative.
Thanks.
Hi! Use ABS function to obtain the absolute value of a number regardless of its sign.
I am trying to create an if formula. I have 10 questions on column A. Column B I have yes and no for each of the 10 questions. On column C, I need to create a formula that if all the questions are "yes", 40%, if there is a no, it should be 0. Can you help me?
Hi! Count the number of "yes" values in column B. You can do this using the COUNTIF function and these instructions: COUNTIF function in Excel - count if not blank, greater than, duplicate or unique. If the result is 10, return value 40% using IF function.
You can use this formula:
=IF(COUNTIF(B1:B10,"yes")=10,40%,0)
Hello. I need formula to check if the item in the this tab, can be find in the other tab. Result will be yes or no
Hi! It is not possible to offer you a formula as there is no information about your data. If I understand your task correctly, this article may be helpful: VLOOKUP with IF statement in Excel.
I need help with a formula that where the value in B4 is multiplied by either rates in (C2,D2,E2) if it is greater than a range of specific cells (C1, D1, E1). Example if B4=45, total will be 225.00 (C1*C2). Thank you.
C1:45
C2:5.00
D1:100
D2:4.00
E1:300
E2:2.00
B4: 45
B8: total
Hi! If I understand your task correctly, try the following formula:
=SUMPRODUCT((C1:E1<=B4)*C2:E2*B4)
I recommend reading this guide: Excel SUMPRODUCT function with multiple criteria.
Thank you for your reply but it isn't calculating the way I would like it to. The formula provided is adding the cells with 5.25 and 5.00 then multiplying cell B4 which isn't correct. The output i'm looking for is that B4 would be multiplied 5.00 since it is greater than 100. Hopefully this is much clearer, thank you.
45 100 300 500 1000
5.25 5.00 4.95 4.90 4.80
B4: 105
B5: TOTAL
Hi! The formula I sent to you was created based on the description you provided in your first request. However, as far as I can see from your second comment, your task is now different from the original one.
If I understand correctly, find the maximum number that is less than B4 using the MAX function and MATCH function. Then extract the corresponding value from the range C2:E2 using INDEX MATCH.
=INDEX(C2:E2,MATCH(MAX((C1:E1
I apologize for not explaining it clearly. I used the formula but it says I'm missing a parenthesis. Also, where would I enter B4 in the formula?
Please disregard as I don't think it can be done.
Sorry total will be 225.00 (B4*C2) not C1.
Hi. Can you please help for IF/THEN.
IF A1=X1, then show what is in cell Z1.
Disregard.. I figured it out.
Hi, I have values in two coloums i.e. in row 1, the value is in Col A and from row 2 to 10, the value is in Col B. Which formula can be used to call the required values from both Col A and B and return the value in Col C. Thanks.
Hi! It is impossible to guess how you want to call required values. You can use the VLOOKUP formula to search multiple columns as described in this article. You can also combine multiple columns into a single column using the VSTACK function. There may be other solutions depending on what you want to do.
Hello, Alex! I have two lists; an authorized user list and a transaction list. On the transaction list, it gives the name of who authorized the transaction. I already completed a VLOOKUP to have the authorized user's name next to the user who authorized the transaction. Now, I need to filter the data to show unauthorized transactions. I was thinking an easy IF statement would be the answer, but the wall I am hitting is stumping me. The names on the authorized user list have a couple names of who has authorization.
Example: (A3)Authorized: Hayes, (B3)Authorizer: Hayes/Lopez.
As you can see, Hayes is on the authorized list so he should be fine. My If statement is =IF(A3=B3,"Authorized","Unauthorized"). It seems the = is only giving me an EXACT match. Is there a way I can make the IF statement work?
Hi! If I understand the question correctly, you want to determine if the text strings in cells A3 and B3 are partial matched. Based on the information provided, the formula could look like this:
=IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH(A3,B3)),"Authorized","Unauthorized")
For more information, please read: How to find substring in Excel
Thank you for your prompt response
Good Day,
I have prepared a salary sheet with dates in a row and name of employee in the column, I want to get the total sum of salary Only of Today() (everyday in the same cell)
=IF(T10="P", ((G10*1)+(U10*(G10/9))), "0") then sum of all the employees but this works only on one day.
how may I automate it, please.
Hi! To calculate the sum by condition, try using the SUMIFS function and these instructions: Excel SUMIFS and SUMIF with multiple criteria – formula examples. If this is not what you wanted, please describe the problem in more detail.
Hi
Newbie question sorry....I have a column containing a number of text names equating to project status. As follows: onboarding, offboarding, leaving etc... (With a different designated numerical value to each)
I.e Onboarding 5, Offboarding 3, Leaving 1 etc
I would like to create an IF statement as a form of lookup to check the text name in the column against the list/values and display said value in a new column. I am wondering if this is the best way to do this? have started with the following..... =IF(E2="onboarding","5") .... but am wondering how to add the other names and values... and if this is actually possible?
Again, a new user so scrabbling about without a lot of time to study the options...
Any suggestions welcome.
Hi! I don't really understand what result you want to get. But if you want to do it with the IF function, maybe this instruction will help: Excel IF function with multiple conditions. Or describe the problem in more detail.

Hi! Unfortunately your data has no one pattern or regularity. Looks like this is not possible with the standard Excel options.
Could you write three individual loops/statement in three different columns and the final condition is blank for the rows for the name and the date but in the row for the unapproved/approve in it. that row will place the name-date-condition??
I have stated trying to solve this: =IF(A10="Unapproved", "Unapproved", "")
Hi, i need to use the IF function for a total score of more than 45 but less than 55 and a total score of more than 55 but less than 60
Hi! If I understand your task correctly, the following tutorial should help: Nested IF in Excel – formula with multiple conditions.
If you want to find the sum of numbers in an interval, use the SUMIFS formula as suggested in this article: Excel SUMIFS and SUMIF with multiple criteria – formula examples.
I hope my advice will help you solve your task.
I have 5 sell prices for each item in excel and I need to write an IF statement to see if they all match. Can you help?
Hi! If I understand your task correctly, this article may be helpful: IF AND in Excel: nested formula, multiple statements, and more. I hope this will help.
Hi, I need to write an IF statement for a column in which I already have some values which need to remain unchanged if the corresponding cell in the C column reads 'TRUE'. However, if the coresponding cell in the C column reads 'FALSE', then the cell must return 'NULL'. e.g C2 contains 'FALSE', therefore D2 will write 'NULL'. However, C4 contains 'TRUE', therefore the existing number in D4 '0.29' should remain unchanged. I can't find any logic which allows me to do this? The examples given use "" which returns a blank cell.
Hi! An Excel formula can only return a value to the cell in which it is written, and it cannot return a value to another cell. A previously written value in a cell cannot be changed by an Excel formula. This can be done with VBA. For example, you can use a formula in the E column to either set the value to NULL or to get the value from the C column. For example:
=IF(C2=FALSE,"NULL",D2)
Thank you Alexander for this wonderful tutorial
Your help is needed;
From this excel function, IF(W54<20,0,IF(W54<31,2,IF(W54<51,4,IF(W54<76,6,IF(W54<100,7,IF(W54=100,8,0))))))
I need your help with inserting a multiplicator into the IF function above to return values for 370, 400, 650, 275 and 914
Is it possible to insert a multiplier to auto calculate up to a 1000 from the base IF function at the top?
Thank you
Hi! If I understand your question correctly: Instead of cell W54, you can use the cell range W54:W58 in the formula, where these five numbers will be written. The result will be an array of values.
i am Looking for a formula pls
If C1 contain the text "Clarke", the value in C2 must be auto copied to C3. Is this possible?
=IF(C1="Clarke",C3=C2,"") something like that. the end " " is a place holder, it depends on what you want to do if C1 doesnt = clarke
Read carefully how to use the IF function. Your formula is not correct. Just write formula IF(C1="Clarke",C2,"") in cell C3.
How can I protect a formula in a field with a drop-down list aswell. Basically by IF/AND formula answers the value of "Not applicable" if the two preceding columns are both answered as "No", but if either of the two preceding columns have a "Yes", then I need people to be able to pick an option from the drop-down list, whichever is appropriate, but when you do, it wipes out the IF formula, so if the person entering data realise that maybe this miss-entered the values on the two preceding columns and it is actually both meant to be "No", then I want the IF formula to kick in and answer "Not applicable", but it won't because once you've selected something for the drop-down list, the formula is lost. not sure if I'm asking for too much, but thought I'd give it a go, maybe you have an easy solution.
Thanks,
Hello! A drop-down list writes a text value into a cell. When it does this, it clears all the previous contents of the cell. Using VBA, you can try to create a dropdown list if certain conditions are met. In this case, if the conditions are not met, the drop-down list does not exist.
Hi, I hope you can help, in need of the following. A1 Date of Hire
A2 Date of Term
A3 calculate 12 months from A1 but if A2 has a date A3 would remain blank. (Using date driven for FMLA eligibility)
A4 to show 480 hrs if A3 is 12 months from A1 as of todays date
I hope I’ve explained it properly.
Hi! I hope you have studied the recommendations in the tutorial above. It contains answers to your questions.
To add 12 months to a date, use these instructions: Add months to date in Excel. For example:
=IF(ISBLANK(A2),DATE(YEAR(A1), MONTH(A1) + 12, DAY(A1)),"")
Thank you, I truly appreciate your help and knowledge.
I should have mentioned that I am using seveal worksheets with vlookup to bring or have data follow.
The DOH and TERM are vlookup, here is my formula that those cells have:
=IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP(A11,'Sheet1'!$A$3:$AI$335,9,FALSE)),"",IF(LEN(VLOOKUP(A11,'Sheet1'!$A$3:$AI$335,9,FALSE))=0,"",VLOOKUP(A11,'Sheet1'!$A$3:$AI$335,9,0)))
The recommendation doesn't work with ISBLANK when there is a formula? Unless I'm missing it?
Hi! If the cell contains a formula, use A2="" instead of ISBLANK(A2)
Oh, I'm sure I'm making this more complicated than I should :)
Took your advice and re-read the tutorial..
My answer: =IF($G22"", "Term", EDATE(F22,12))

HI ,
I want to calculate Gratuity for the employees in the company and i have the difference between the joining date and the last day working day as a value to check it and implement into 4 Columns (options) , first column if the (value >=365 and less than 1095) , second column if the value >= 1095 and less than 1825 , third column if value >=1825 then till 1825 will be calculated in third column and more than 1825 will be calculated in fourth column , the major idea from the two comparisons for each to avoid the duplicate of the values in the other columns if we consider value 1850 >=365 for example will be calculated in all 4 columns .
Thanks in advance .
Hi! If I understand your task correctly, write four IF formulas. For example:
=IF(AND((B1-A1)>=365,(B1-A1)<1095),B1-A1,"")

Hi! If I understand your task correctly, try to use conditional formatting. I recommend reading this guide: Excel Conditional Formatting tutorial with examples.
I am comparing if 2 cells (text) match, if they match, then I copy the value from another cell that is a text, if not, just write "Input information".
This is the formula that I am writing:
=(EXACT(A2,B2),D2,"Input information")
When I press enter it shows me the equation instead of the options.
When I go to "Evaluate Formula" in the Formula menu, the message says: The cell currently being evaluated contains a constant.
Columns A, B are formatted as General and column D as Text.
If I understand your task correctly, use IF function:
=IF(EXACT(A2,B2),D2,"Input information")

I was wondering if and how a different text format can be passed for the Value? For example I would like the "true" value to be red and bold and the "False" value to be blue and bold.
Hi! Create a separate conditional formatting rule for each of the TRUE and FALSE values. Then each of these values will be highlighted as you want. I recommend reading this guide: Excel Conditional Formatting tutorial with examples.
Greetings. I am a 4th-grade teacher working on a data tracking spreadsheet and cannot figure out how to get the data I desire from two columns into the third column.
Column C will have a student's test score (either a 1, 2, 3, or 4). Column D will have the student's retake test score (either a 1, 2, 3, 4, or it will be left blank because he or she did not need to take the retake). Currently, I am using the formula below to show the score change for a student's test in Column E:
=IF(C5"",C5-D5,"")*(-1)
I am looking to see data in the following manner:
1) If there is data in Column C and in Column D, I want to show the data change in Column E
- if the score goes up from a 1 to a 3, Column E would show a 2 (and of course any variation of a score increase would be represented)
- if the score goes down from a 4 to a 3, Column E would show a -1 (and of course any variation of a score decrease would be represented)
2) If there is data in Column C but not in Column D, I do not want data to show in Column E
- if a student's data in Column C is 3 and there is no data in Column D (they did not take the retake test), I do not want anything to show in Column E
I cannot wrap my head around how to get this done and have had great success with assistance on this Blog. For someone that understands the ins and outs of functions, my guess is this will not be too difficult, but for me, I am stumped. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Hi,
I have a 25 rows (e.g., F2:AD2). Some of the cells in these rows contain a specific text, while the rest are empty. I need a formula which can extract the cell number of the rows that contain the specific text.
for example, if N2 and Z2 has the specific text, i want the formula to return "N2, Z2". I used IFS and it only returns the first true value and omits the rest.
How do i get it done?
Many thanks.

=TEXTJOIN(", ",TRUE, IFERROR(ADDRESS(2,SMALL(IF($D5=$A$2:$AD$2,COLUMN($A$1:$AD$1)), COLUMN(A1:AD1)),4),""))
You can learn more about ADDRESS function in this article: Excel ADDRESS function to get cell address and more.
hi i dont know what formula will i use
"55+0= 0 or blank"
if the value in column b is 55 and column c is 0 i would like to see it blank in column d or show it as 0 value but if i input value in column c operations should be done on column d (55*1=55) hope you get my point
Hi! I hope you have studied the recommendations in the tutorial above. For example,
=IF(AND(B1=55,C1=0),0,B1*C1)
or
=B1*C1
Hello!in sheet1 from column A - K are all occupied,in column G there are mixture up trucks registrations numbers of 3 different countries,i need to maintain that column but link every country registration number to go to different sheet depending on first letter of the registration
Hi! Use hyperlinks and these instructions to link to the needed workbook worksheet: Excel Hyperlink: how to create, change and remove.
Greetings, I am trying to complete a trip sheet / logbook. In column "I" there is an address, in column "H" it should be the name of the business visited. I am not sure if possible to nest 138(unique paired) IF or IFS based on text. The address is text and it should return a text. Also the must be a "else" for any unknown address. If there is a limit on nesting how many can be nested?
The entire worksheet is over 2000 lines so to copy a formula would make things easy.
Thank you so very much for any help.
Hi! In your case, it is not possible to use the IF function. To find an address by name (or vice versa) use the VLOOKUP formula or a better alternative - INDEX MATCH formula.
This should solve your task. If you have any other questions, please don’t hesitate to ask.
Greetings
My formula has a syntax problem.
=VLOOKUP(G14, lookup!$A$1:$B$127)
=VLOOKUP(G14, lookup!$A$1:$B$127, 2 0)
=VLOOKUP(G14, $lookup.A1:B127)
Column G contains the address.
I have tried this in column F and H and neither is working.
The main sheet is where I am trying to the formula.
lookup is a sheet on the same workbook as the main.
Column A contains address
Column B contains a name that matches A
Thank you.
Hi just trying to get a formula for:

Hi! To find the sum by name and by date, use the SUMIFS function as described in this manual: Excel SUMIFS and SUMIF with multiple criteria.
How to write a condition with a date correctly, read here.
You can also use a pivot table to show the sum by name and dates on another worksheet.
I'm using a formula "=TEXTJOIN("",TRUE,IFERROR((MID(C39,ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&LEN(C39))),1)*1),""))" to copy numeric contents of a cell to another cell, now I would like to modify it to the same but only if it is 9 digits or more if it is less than 9 digits to copy the complete cell
Hi! If I understand correctly, use the LEN function to find the length of the text string that TEXTJOIN returns.
=IF(LEN(TEXTJOIN("",TRUE,IFERROR((MID(C39,ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&LEN(C39))),1)*1),"")))>9, C39, TEXTJOIN("",TRUE,IFERROR((MID(C39,ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&LEN(C39))),1)*1),"")))
Please help to create an If statement formula identifying the Peak (P) and Off peak (OP) in the time of a day with the following conditions:
Peak (P) - from 0801H - 2100H Mon-Sat and 1801H-2100H during Sundays and holidays
Off Peak (OP) - from 2101H-0800H Mon-Sat and 2101H-1800H during Sundays and holidays
Tried so many formulas but returns a #value. 26/12/2022 12:05:00 am is the date-time format reference that Iam using.
Thank you.
Hi! To get the day of the week, use the WEEKDAY function. Since time in Excel is the fractional part of the date, get this fractional part by subtracting the integer part from the date using the INT function.
=IF(OR(AND(WEEKDAY(D1,2)<7, (D1-INT(D1))>TIME(8,0,0), (D1-INT(D1))<TIME(21,0,0)), AND(WEEKDAY(D1,2)=7, (D1-INT(D1))>TIME(18,0,0), (D1-INT(D1))<TIME(21,0,0))),"P","OP")
helloo Dear Alexander
I need a function a liittle unusual. just wanted to ask you to help me.
Let Jump to an example:
=IF(Condition = TRue, condition1, get data from user)
in other word If condition is True do an affair an calculation, but if is not true, get as data entry.
would you please to help me if there is a way to do this?
Thanks alot.
Hi! What does the “get data from user” phrase mean? If you want to get data using an external reference, specify it in the IF formula. If you want to get data for multiple cells or a table, use VBA.

Hi! If I understand your task correctly, the following tutorial should help: Hyperlink to a specific pace in the current workbook.
Hi,
Can i use if formula "Monthly data same date if there is same name is enter double then it should be highlighted "i dont want to filter and check each date if the name is double entry or not
Unfortunately, I can't guess what formula you are talking about or what you want to do.
My concern is I have a data with many names and different date's
A with name and B with date
Cell "A " if the name is entered 2 times on the same date .
example: name John - 1st oct 2022 is OK ,should not be there again in the same date .
i need a formula to confirm there is no double entry on the same date
Hi! If I understand your task correctly, the following tutorial should help: Highlight duplicate rows in Excel.
You can use a formula to indicate a duplicate record:
=IF(COUNTIFS($A$2:$A$100,$A2,$B$2:$B$1100,$B2)>1,"Duplicate","")
Can I return a number and a text value? I am trying to get the value in the cell with the IF statement to display the numerical difference between two cells and also say Under or Over. For context, I want it to subtract an estimated budget with an actual budget and then return the value saying how much the difference is and if it is over or under budget in the same cell. Is this possible?
Hi! To merge text and number, I recommend studying this guide: CONCATENATE in Excel: combine text strings, cells and columns.
The formula might look like this:
=IF(B2-A2>0,"over budget "&(B2-A2),"under budget "&(A2-B2))

terimasaik,
I want the numbers to showi the first column automatically, as i enter the names or items in the next column. How can i do that? I remember something like: =if(b2=???, row-1, ""), but cannot remember the exact formula.
Thanks in advance
Hi! I don't know what numbers you want to display. You can get the row number by using the ROW function. Check for an empty cell using the ISBLANK function or the <>"" expression. For example:
=IF(NOT(ISBLANK(B2)),ROW(B2),"")
=IF(B2<>"",ROW(B2),"")
