Formula error - duplicate data occuring

mckenseycatterton

Hello,

 

I'm having issues with a formula populating in incorrect data. I'm combining 2 datasets into a formula via an append function. One dataset has 2 rows worth of data (P2 for infrastructure and third party) and the other 1 row worth of data (P3 infrastructure). What I want the formula to show is a blank under P3 % remediated for third party (since there is no data), instead of for some reason pulling in the P3 infrastructure data as a duplicate for third party. The current formula is skewing my timeliness %.

An Append will always add all the data from one data source to the other.  Can you join them or use a Find and Replace instead?

Is this what you are trying to achieve?

Yes, that is what I'm trying to achieve. I'll see if that works.
