what are the action 1,2,3 you want to do - Or is it just add those words "action 1" , "action 2" & "action 3"
which i have added below
Also , the IFERROR could be used on the J formula and NOT recreate a new column K - But as hidden - I suspect column K is used elsewhere
=IF([@[DAYS TIL DUE]]<0,"OVERDUE",IF([@[DAYS TIL DUE]]>90,"Not Due",IF([@[DAYS TIL DUE]]>30,"Due Next 90 Days","Due This Month")))
becomes
=IFERROR(IF([@[DAYS TIL DUE]]<0,"OVERDUE",IF([@[DAYS TIL DUE]]>90,"Not Due",IF([@[DAYS TIL DUE]]>30,"Due Next 90 Days","Due This Month"))),"NOT DUE")
But I suspect a lot of other things are going on based on column K.......
however you want to Add different things to column J - which will impact column K, and feed through those actions to K
Which will mean column K will also change , and NOT show , "NOT DUE" as it does now for any value errors , depending on what actions 1,2,3 are
you would just add some more nested IF's
=IF ( H2 = "N/A" , "Action 1", IF ( H2 = "INACTIVE" , "Action 2", IF ( H2 = "OFFLINE" , "Action 3", IF([@[DAYS TIL DUE]]<0,"OVERDUE",IF([@[DAYS TIL DUE]]>90,"Not Due",IF([@[DAYS TIL DUE]]>30,"Due Next 90 Days","Due This Month"))))))
H2 could be changed to the table Name , as you have shown - I rarely use table names and not sure about the [@[name]]
=IF ( [@[DUE DATE]] = "N/A" , "Action 1", IF ( [@[DUE DATE]] = "INACTIVE" , "Action 2", IF ( [@[DUE DATE]] = "OFFLINE" , "Action 3", IF([@[DAYS TIL DUE]]<0,"OVERDUE",IF([@[DAYS TIL DUE]]>90,"Not Due",IF([@[DAYS TIL DUE]]>30,"Due Next 90 Days","Due This Month"))))))
make sure you make a copy of the file and test that - so you dont muckup the original version that someone else made , and you can go back to a working file
also do you know all the other columns that use the results of H, I, J or K columns , as changes here may have implications on a lot of other parts of the spreadsheet , column I , J & K columns are hidden then can only assume the rest of the spreadsheet is using them , most probably column K, as you say - as that also has the IFERROR in which will now give a different result
When you say
The next column appears to tidy up the previous column.
what do you mean , that Column K tidies up Column J
ALSO
Note: Images are difficult to see , and also requires that I input all the data myself, which means I may make an error, which is very time consuming, and from my point of view less likely to get a response, if a complicated spreadsheet. Plus we cannot see any of the formulas used.
Therefore -
A SMALL sample spreadsheet, around 10-20 rows, would help a lot here, with all sensitive data removed, and expected results mocked up and manually entered, with a few notes of explanation.
This will possibly enable a quicker and more accurate solution for you.
MrExcel has a tool called “XL2BB” that lets you post samples of your data and will allow us to copy/paste your sample data into our Excel spreadsheets, saving a lot of time.
Excel 'mini-sheet' in messages - XL2BB Although experts prefer to read your description and question instead of working in your actual file to solve your problem, there are times that it is difficult to explain an issue without providing actual...

You can also test to see if it works ok, in the "Test Here" forum.
Use this forum to test your signature, learn bbcode, smilies, XL2BB, etc. Threads in this forum are automatically deleted after no replies for seven (7) days

OR if you cannot get XL2BB to work, or have restrictions on your PC
then put the sample spreadsheet onto a share
I only tend to goto OneDrive, Dropbox or google docs , as I'm never certain of other random share sites and possible virus.
Please make sure you have a representative data sample and also that the data has been desensitised, remember this site is open to anyone with internet access to see - so any sensitive / personal data should be removed
Make sure you set any share or google to share to everyone
