Multi IF Statement

HW3

I'm looking to create a formula that if any combination of columns A, B., or C has a Y, then Multiple is applied to the Multiple column. If only one of A, B. or C has a Y then the multiple column is left blank. I made an example of what I'm looking for in the picture. Also, I would eventually like to add additional columns to be considered to create the multiple tag.

Hi @TheUdbhav ,

 

I was able to get this formula to work. Thank you.

Hi @MilindG 

 

Thank you for your reply.

 

I was not able to get the formula to work. I might be missing something. When I applied it, all of the cells came back with Multiple. I do have a question. What difference does the exclamation mark at the front of the IsNull statement make?

 

I thought that was my issue because I did not include them at first, but I went back and added them, and it didn't make a difference.

@HW3  ! in front negates the outcome. So in my formula I wrote ! isnull([B])  or I Isnull ([C]) means either B or C has a value then it would be 'Multiple' else it would be blank.

I'm glad you found something that worked for you. Cheers

Ok. Where does column A get considered because it could be any combination of the three columns having more than one populated with Y, and it would

equal multiple?

@HW3 Ah in your sample data, you did not have null values under 'A' hence I made my formula accordingly. Looking back at your post, I believe this should work
