Could you put your formula into just words?

An explanation of your intentions might clear up all the ambiguities your
"formula" contains.

JMB

If statement format is (3 parameters)

IF(Conditional Test, Condition is True, Condition is False)

Your IF statement has 4 parameters (with the 4th being another IF statement).

If the condition is False, do you want "Backorder" or "Future Order No Stock
Available". You could have another IF statement, but it is pointless to test
for L3<M3+(N3=900). Since the IF statement is processing the 3rd parameter
(the False parameter of L3=M3+(N3=900)), you already know L3<M3+(N3=900) is
true.


=IF(L3=M3+(N3=900), N3, "Backorder")

OR

=IF(L3=M3+(N3=900), N3, "Future Order No Stock Available")

order, if not show whatever status number is in the cell , else if order date

Try this:

=IF(AND(L3=M3,OR(N3={750,800})),"BackOrder",IF(AND (L3<M3,N3=500),"Future
Order, No Stock Available",IF(AND(L3<M3,N3=900),"Stock Available",N3)))

This is exactly what I wanted.
=IF(AND(L31=M31,OR(N31={900,902})),"Backorder",IF( AND(L31<M31,N31=900),"Future
Order - No Stock Available",IF(AND(L31<M31,N31=520),"Future Order - Stock
Available",

I added the statement below to the formula but if the answer is Backorder
Must ship complete, it gives the result "Backorder" and no other formula
error.
IF(AND(L31=M31,Q31="H"),"Backorder Must Ship Complete","Shipping Within 24
Hours"))))

I'm not too sure exactly what you just said.

Are you sorted out OK or not?

If not, try again to state your latest question.

Formula Error
 
Hello I apolgize.


=IF(AND(L31=M31,OR(N31={900,902})),"Backorder",IF( AND(L31<M31,N31=900),"Future
Order - No Stock Available",IF(AND(L31<M31,N31=520),"Future Order - Stock
Available", "Shipping Within 24 Hours"

I am using the above formula. To the formula above I added
IF(AND(L31=M31,Q3="H"),"Backorder Must Ship Complete","Shipping Within 24
Hours")))) ("Shipping within 24 hours" being the value if false, and this
only appears once.)

The formula does not work so there must be something wrong with this last IF
statement but I don't know what it is. Hope this is clearer thanks
