Multiple IF function
Hi,
I need some help.
I'm creating a excel document to help guide user into the correct process to follow.
In my example there are 2 classes (A and B) and an example budget limit of £10.
My problem is the end result - displaying the reommmended Process (A, B or C).
- If CLASS A has been selected from a separate cell and the cost cell is greater than £10 then display PROCESS A
- If CLASS A has been selected from a separate cell and the cost cell is less than £10 then display PROCESS B
- If CLASS B has been selected from a separate cell and the cost cell is greater than £10 then display PROCESS B
- If CLASS B has been selected from a separate cell and the cost cell is less than £10 then display PROCESS C
Example file attached.
Is there an easier way other than using the IF function?
or maybe what would be the recommend IF function command?
Thanks all
Hi Mark,
It could be something like
=CHOOSE(($E$2="A")*2+($B$4>$B$2)+1, "PROCESS C", "PROCESS B", "PROCESS B", "PROCESS A")

Thanks
The Switch function could help.... however does the Switch formula allow for IF features?
Please see attachment, which shares more information.
The objective is to display a result based on the inputs of CLASS and expenditure($$) based against the budget.
Hi Mark,
It could be something like
=CHOOSE(($E$2="A")*2+($B$4>$B$2)+1, "PROCESS C", "PROCESS B", "PROCESS B", "PROCESS A")
