IF Function with more criteria
I need to calculate based in two or more criteria and with multiple return values.
For example:
If base is open and type is narrow, then the result must be B4-1.75
If base is open and type is medium, then the result must be B4-3.75
If base is door and type is narrow, then the result must be B4-2.25
If base is door and type is medium, then the result must be B4-4.25
If base is closed and type is narrow, then the result must be B4-1
If base is closed and type is medium, then the result must be B4-2.5
My operative system ins Windows 10, and Excel version is 2013.
Thanks in advance 🙂
yennyg If you have multiple criteria you will need to have more of a list format:
base type color value narrow open blue 1.75 narrow open red 2.25 narrow door blue 2.75 narrow door red 3.25 narrow closed blue 1 narrow closed red 3.75 medium open blue 6.5 medium open red 9.25 medium door blue 4.25 medium door red 2.5 medium closed blue 0.75 medium closed red -1 and then you can use a FILTER() function like:
=FILTER($D$8:$D$19,($A$8:$A$19=$F$8)*($B$8:$B$19=$G$8)*($C$8:$C$19=$H$8),"n/a")

yennyg To have multiple conditions you can use AND(...) function or (condition1)*(condition2)
But in this case it sounds like you should have a table with all the combinations and use a Lookup and/or FILTER or combination thereofIn the attached I used a table and then used and INDEX(...MATCH(), MATCH())
