  • I saw the file but I didn't understand it.
    Would be something like  

    =SUM(E29*(1.1))

     ???

      its a commission tracker. the formula needs to go in column K and work out the following:
      employees earn 10% of any amount in column E & F
      if column G contains yes = £50
      if column H contains yes = £30
      if column I contains 1yr = £20 or 2yr = £40
      if column J contains yes = £30

        stuart395 Calculating with numbers is so much easier than with texts. If you would add the various rates above each column and use 1 for Yes, 0 for No and the the number 1 or 2 for the years of warranty, you can use a simple SUMPRODUCT formula as demonstrated in the attached file. By the way, I don't really understand the purpose of the two bottom rows in the table, but that's for you to judge, of course.
