Hello!

I am trying to use a DATEDIF formula to calculate a number that is then used to in an IF formula to generate a score. The issues is that for some of the DATEDIF calculations the EndDate is before the StartDate. When this happens, I have the formula generate a "0". I then use the outcome of the DATEDIF for an IF formula but when the outcome is "O" the IF formula doesn't work properly.

(DATEDIF Formula) =IF(AI5="","NO ONBOARDING DATA",(IFERROR(DATEDIF(T5,AI5,"d"),"0")))

(IF Formula) =IFERROR(IF(AJ5="","0.00",IF(AJ5<=7,"0.05",IF(AJ5<=14,"0.04",IF(AJ5<=21,"0.03",IF(AJ5<=365,"0.01",IF(AJ5>365,"0.00")))))),"0")

Why won't the "0" be considered in the IF(AJ5<=7,"0.05"??? How can I fix this so that all situations where the EndDate is in the past, the IF formula results in "0.05"?

Thank you! :)
 

Excel Facts

Format cells as time
Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+2 to format cells as time. (Shift 2 is the @ sign).
in the IFERROR () you have "0" - thats a text zero
change to just 0
(DATEDIF Formula) =IF(AI5="","NO ONBOARDING DATA",(IFERROR(DATEDIF(T5,AI5,"d"),0)))
Now the zero is a number and NOT text
again here
=IFERROR(IF(AJ5="","0.00",IF(AJ5<=7,"0.05",IF(AJ5<=14,"0.04",IF(AJ5<=21,"0.03",IF(AJ5<=365,"0.01",IF(AJ5>365,"0.00")))))),"0")
you have "" inverted commas around a number - remove them ,
