Hi everyone,

on this fine Sunday evening, I'm trying to sort the logic out for below. Annoyingly, there are several options in cells B3 & C3 so trying to cater to that also. I'm trying to tell the formula that if C5= Growth then show me the correct sales numbers per below and the choices in B3 & C3 and if it says without growth, I want the 2021 value until 2030 for the same choices in B3 & C3. Sounds simple enough but I'm flabbergasted!

please help!

thank you! :)

Hi Anum,

Each IF has a TRUE and FALSE option so when nesting so deep it's easy to lose track and that's why you're seeing FALSE. That first IF never has a FALSE option so it displays false. You can prove that by inserting ,C5 before the last parentheses so if Without Growth is chosen it will actually display that cell.
Excel Formula:
=IF(C5="Growth",IF($C$3="All Brands",C22/1000,IF(LEFT($C$3,5)="Total",SUMIF(M18:M21,B3,C18:C21)/1000,IF($C$3="All Brands",C22/1000,SUMIF(M18:M21,B3,C18:C21)/1000))),c5)

I think you may only need one IF but I'm having a hard time understanding "if C5= Growth then show me the correct sales numbers per below and the choices in B3 & C3 and if it says without growth, I want the 2021 value until 2030" as I see no values, only sales figures?

Once I understand that it can be incorporated but for now I've changed your Datalist setup and table to select a wildcard * when All is selected by VLOOKUP and replaced the IF with SUMIFS.

Please take a look at this and let me know how close it is to what you want.

Thank you! I think you steered me in the correct direction as where you've put C5 at the end of the formula, I've changed it to show the 2021 value for C3 so think I got it right.
If we take 2021 as an example, if they choose Wood is B3 & Total Wood in C3, then I want the Net Trade Sale for 2021 to show 300 which sums the Wood from col M, if they select all Brands then show 850 and if they select Sandal, 200 and so on...

Unfortunately I need the Total Wood and Total Plastic subset as my stakeholders need it which is missing in your new arrangement.

I'm still not understanding the difference in calculation between "Growth" and "Without Growth".

"Unfortunately I need the Total Wood and Total Plastic subset as my stakeholders need it which is missing in your new arrangement."
...but that's the selection in B3, everything, all Wood or all Plastic?

Growth is meant to show data from the table below as per the corresponding years and without growth will be the same value as 2021

So maybe that's where an IF statement comes in?
