Is there an IF formula that stipulates if cell A contains the word "DOC" then Cell C will populate the date in MMDDYEAR format? Also if there are additional instances of the date being used it would need to add 01, 02, etc. after the date. Thanks!

The ID should only calculate MMDDYEAR if the Type is = DOC, RCPT, or INV and if the Rate = 1 (sometimes the rate is different for those categories).

Excel Facts

When they said...
When they said you are going to "Excel at life", they meant you "will be doing Excel your whole life".
So it appears that the issue is that it isn't returning anything for the rows that don't meet that criteria.
That is simply because the FALSE argument of the IF formula is telling it to return blank "".
That is a simple fix:
Code:
=IF(AND(M2=1,OR(A2="DOC",A2="RCPT",A2="INV")),TEXT(B2,"mmddyyyy ") & TEXT(COUNTIF(B$2:B2,B2),"00"),[COLOR=#ff0000]A2[/COLOR])

Thanks! It populates in the MMDDYEAR format correctly but the sequence count is off.

Try:
Code:
=IF(AND(M2=1,OR(A2="DOC",A2="RCPT",A2="INV")),TEXT(B2,"mmddyyyy ") & TEXT(COUNTIFS(B$2:B2,B2,A$2:A2,"DOC")+COUNTIFS(B$2:B2,B2,A$2:A2,"RCPT")+COUNTIFS(B$2:B2,B2,A$2:A2,"INV"),"00"),A2)

Hello, just wondering -- Is it possible to edit the formula to populate in MMDDYEAR format without the sequence for the first occurrence? So instead of populating "MMDDYEAR 00" format for the first cell that meets the criteria it would instead populate MMDDYEAR format then add 01, 02, to subsequent cells that meet criteria. [04112018, then 04112018 01, etc.]

Try this:
Code:
=IF(AND(M2=1,OR(A2="DOC",A2="RCPT",A2="INV")),TEXT(B2,"mmddyyyy") & SUBSTITUTE(TEXT(COUNTIFS(B$2:B2,B2,A$2:A2,"DOC")+COUNTIFS(B$2:B2,B2,A$2:A2,"RCPT")+COUNTIFS(B$2:B2,B2,A$2:A2,"INV")-1," 00")," 00",""),A2)

I hope this is the last one! This formula is getting a bit messy...
