Using Switch Formula but adding an exception

Brass Contributor

 

Hi There,

 

I have the below formula that works fine & calculates correctly.  

=SWITCH(W401=Z$2,TRUE,S401*0.1,FALSE,S401*0.025,)

 

I would like to add an exception to only perform this calculation if 3 different cells do not contain certain words from the same line (these words all change as come in from a different tab based on account information, the exception is only needed on one combination) , is this possible? Ideally I would like to do this all in the same cell IE add it to the above formula.  

 

Many Thanks

Something like this maybe?

 

=IF(
TEXTJOIN(",",TRUE,A401:C401)="Word1,Word2,Word3",
"Exclude",
SWITCH(
W401=Z$2,
TRUE,S401*0.1,
FALSE,S401*0.025,"")
)

Thanks for that, the formula seemed to build ok but on pressing enter it returns an error 

 

im using 

 

=IF(TEXTJOIN(",",TRUE,U388:V388)="Route Cover Parcel,Reint,Yes","Exclude"SWITCH(W401=Z$2,TRUE,S401*0.1,FALSE,S401*0.025,""))

 

I get the error thinking im not trying to enter a formula

 

Cheers
