I have two columns with functions/formulas in them which calculate the results down the columns. One has an IF statement that provides the final results. The other column just multiplies two values to get the results in that cell, and then fillhandle down. I need the second column when values are 0.00 to auto-update the first column to 0.00 as well. Think linking cells. The example is providing an Interest rate for total sales in F2 if the condition is met. I need the cell G2 to zero out if W2 is a Zero amount. W2 just multiplies two cells.

Example in Cell G2 : =IFS(B2="Central",$J$2,B2="East",$J$3,B2="North",$J$4,B2="South",$J$5,B2="West",$J$6)*F2, IF(W2,1,G2 should also equal 0.00??

I have written several IF statements and one that notes, IF the second column (cell) is Zero then the first column will also be zero out. This worked, but when I fillhandle down the first column, my IF statement function no longer worked for the remaining cells in that column.

What I am asking is, does anyone know how to link two cells with separate functions/formulas in them? Is this even possible? Does it need a VBA code done?

Thanks

EDIT:
Sorry this example should say: Example in Cell G2 : =IFS(B2="Central",$J$2,B2="East",$J$3,B2="North",$J$4,B2="South",$J$5,B2="West",$J$6)*F2, IF(W2<1,G2 should also equal 0.00??

Select a range of cells. The total appears in bottom right of Excel screen. Right-click total to add Max, Min, Count, Average.
I'd just wrap your formula in an if statement (If W2 = 0 then 0 else {your formula}):
Excel Formula:
=IF(W2=0,0,IFS(B2="Central",$J$2,B2="East",$J$3,B2="North",$J$4,B2="South",$J$5,B2="West",$J$6)*F2)
