how to use multi field formula depending on other variables

Hi,

 

I am trying to add a new column using Multi Field formula. I am not sure, maybe other way it will be more easier.

Here is data example:

 

No.English DescriptionABCDEFGEnglish Description Adjusted
1 Earphones, Half in ear,earphone30mAh5240000 Earphones, Hal
2 Earphones, Half in ear,earphone30mAh5240000 Earphones, Hal
3Telephone8720000Telephone
4 Earphones6240000 Earphones
5 Earphones6240000 Earphones

 

The thing is that added new column (English Description Adjusted) depends on other 7 columns data as well as on the row level. Could someone help me to write an algorithm similar to this:

 

If Row +1 (column A = column B = column C = column D= column E = column F = column G) then bring value of English description (=+LEFT(B4;15)) ELSE bring value of English description.

 

The logic is to group goods with the same measurements. However, different english description name is needed for further analyses in order to have unique name for the same goods group with the same measurements. 

 

Best regards,

Marina

Hi @Marina2020 ,

 

I think, you should use the Multi-Row Formula tool. I've attached a sample workflow, hope, this is helpful.

 

Best,
