Hello ,

 

I have this requirement to write a formula : 

 

4 columns A , B , C  and D are a part of workflow . 

 

A = Sales Area

B = Jurisdiction 

C = email id of Sales Person 

D = copy of column c 

 

ABCD
SalesArea1SalesArea1aac@gmail.comaac@gmail.com
SalesArea2SalesArea5bbx@gmail.combbx@gmail.com
SalesArea3SalesArea3ccx@gmail.com ccx@gmail.com 
SalesArea5SalesArea5xsx@gmail.comxsx@gmail.com

 

 

My requirement is if A !=B then column D must be updated with the corresponding email id available for B .

 

ABCD
SalesArea1SalesArea1aac@gmail.comaac@gmail.com
SalesArea2SalesArea5bbx@gmail.comxsx@gmail.com
SalesArea3SalesArea3ccx@gmail.com ccx@gmail.com

Hope this is the output you are trying to achieve. This should help in that case.

 

Thanks,

@Qiu @PKoya  ,

 

Ideally it should be something like this but not working for me .

 

D = if [A]!= [B] then [B(D)] else [D] endif .

 

Thanks
