Looking to amend a formula for our business that requires trustee calls for applicants in bankruptcy. Currently if the applicants credit scores exceed 520/520 the formula returns a response in cell C31 of "waive the trustee call". If they are below 460/460 the response in cell C31 is "decline the deal".

Our business now wants us to waive the calls if other criteria are met outside of credit scores. I'm trying to amend the current formula but Im stuck.

For reference staff are choosing between 2 drop down list options, F23 is "Yes" (they are in BK and scores must be met to waive the call) or F24 for "Waive Trustee Call" (if staff are willing to waive the call based on other variables) F23 = Yes and F24 = Waive Trustee Call

My addition is in bold/italics. Am I doing this correctly?

=IF(OR(B30=F23),IF(AND(B33>=520,B31>=520),"Waive Trustee Call",IF(AND(B33<460,B31<460),"Decline the Deal","Requires Trustee Call")),"No Trustee Call Required"), IF(OR(B30=F24),"Waive Trustee Call","No Trustee Call Required")

Adding the BOLD section returns a #value and Im stuck as to why.

How to find 2nd largest value in a column?
MAX finds the largest value. =LARGE(A:A,2) will find the second largest. =SMALL(A:A,3) will find the third smallest
This formula won't work. You are just connecting two separate IF functions with a comma.

Second, this expression OR(B30=F24) doesn't make sense because there is only one condition inside the OR. Not sure what you are intending here.

To give the correct formula, we need to understand a bit more about the logic you want to use.

What is in B30?

Under what conditions do you want to use the logic for what is in B30, and when do you want to use all the other logic you started with?

You have two different ways to end up with "Waive Trustee Call" and "No Trustee Call Required" but the conditions are not mutually exclusive. The logic is a bit of a pretzel.
