Formula Help - If/OR Function
I'm trying to write a formula that will prompt review based on certain criteria in a list. The only "true" return values I'm getting are on the argument with a greater than numberic value. Is there another/better way when 2 of the arguments are text values?
=IFERROR(IF(OR(A246=Rules!B:B,Q246=Rules!A:A,N246<35),"","Review"),"Review")
- Ah ok, you'll need to do a COUNTIFS. So something like this
=IFERROR(IF(OR( COUNTIFS( Rules!B:B,A246)>0,
COUNTIFS( Rules!A:A,Q246)>0, N246<35),"","Review"),"Review")

Hi Kristy_Jane
Could you post a sample file to show what you are trying to do ?
I'm a bit confused by the A246=Rules!B:B,Q246=Rules!A:A part
Thanks

I'll try to get a sample file uploaded. Rules!A;A and Rules!B:B is referencing a range on another worksheet, same workbook. So if Q2 equals any value in the range in Column B on Rules tab, value should return "".
