Hi all,

Would greatly appreciate some guidance on the below IF statements. I do not have an error values but the values that it generates is incorrect.

Column A:
Category 1
Category 2
Category 3
No Data Entered (I wanted to put this in for a blank....but perhaps I should just leave it blank)

Column B: (Based on Days(end_date,start_date)
n=<0 (i.e. negative numbers - the end date is after the start date - this is incorrectly entered at source. I have no ability to enter a force function to this system)
n=0 (i.e. zero - the start date and end date are the same)
n>0( i.e. positive Numbers - the end data was after the start date)


So I want to know if
- Category 1's were reported within 1 day
- Category 1's were reported but outside of the 1 day
- Category 1's were reported but no date was put in so I don't know if it was within / outside time.
- And for everything else NA.


Thanks all. Appreciate your help.

P.S. As I type this out, I wonder if there is anything confusing in the 'No Data Entered' - though I am explicit about which column I am speaking about.


=IF(AND(A2="Category 1",B2>-1,B2<2),"Yes",
IF(AND(A2="Category 1",B2>1),"No",
IF(AND(A2="Category 1",B2="No Data Entered"),"No Data Entered",
IF(AND(A2="Category 2",B2<0),"NA",
IF(AND(A2="Category 2",B2="No Data Entered"),"NA",
"NA")))))

You can give an example with the real data and the expected result for each example.

Re: (IF) Help Please

You can give an example with the real data and the expected result for each example.
Thanks for your help. Please see below.



Column A:
Category 1
Category 2
Category 3
No Data Entered

Column B:
Integer that ranges from -300 to +600 (But could be any number)
No Data Entered (No value returns No Data Entered)



=IF(AND(A2="Category 1",B2>-1,B2<2),"Yes",
IF(AND(A2="Category 1",B2>1),"No",
IF(AND(A2="Category 1",B2="No Data Entered"),"No Data Entered",
IF(AND(A2="Category 2",B2<0),"NA",
IF(AND(A2="Category 2",B2="No Data Entered"),"NA",
"NA")))))


Result:

Yes (A:Category 1 and (B:0 or B:1)
No (A: Category 1 and B:>1)
No Data Entered (A:Category 1 and B: No Data Entered)
NA (Everything else)q

Re: (IF) Help Please

Thank you.

I can see what you're doing there. It's not quite working as both column A and Column B has another value "No Data Entered". If Column A has 'Category 1" and Column B has 'No Data Entered' - I want the result to be "No Data Entered"

Thank you so much for your help.
