Project Health Formula

Copper Contributor

Question on how to do the following in Excel.  

 

I have the following fields:

  • Cost
  • Schedule
  • Scope 
  • Overall Project Health.  

 

Cost, Schedule and Scope can have the following values each:

  • Red
  • Yellow
  • Green

The formula I am trying to create is for Overall Project Health

  • If Cost, Scope and Schedule = Green, Overall Project Health = Green (all MUST be Green)
  • If any of Cost or Scope or Schedule = Yellow, Overall Project Health = Yellow
  • If any of Cost or Scope or Schedule = Red, Overall Project Health = Red

 

So in the scenario above, if for example, Cost - Green, Scope = Yellow and Schedule = Green, Overall Project Health = Yellow

 or

 

Cost = Red, Scope = Green and Schedule = Yellow, Overall Project Health = Red.

Let's say Cost is in C2 and down, Schedule in D2 and down and Scope in E2 and down.

In F2:

 

=IF(OR(C2:E2="Red"), "Red", IF(OR(C2:E2="Yellow", "Yellow", "Green"))

 

Fill down.
