I've struggled with the IF function for too long before I came across your channel. You're awesome. Thanks for the great stuff.

[@MrRanjithm1]

You are really superb Chandoo. Coming from the Indian dub continent at 74 years, I started following your tips, and I have understood these formulas much more than before, and I can use them in many of my worksheets I do for a school. Thank you very much.

[@sandipgumtya130]

Hi Chandoo, thanks for the amazing tips. Many of these were unknown. Just found that the "on-call" thing can be done with the below formula too. =IF(OR(C8=$C$32:$C$36),"On Call","Not On Call"). Thanks

Thank you very much Sir, I was struggling to use the IF function with wildcards on a major project I was stucked for a long time, this video was a life saver to over come that. Thanks loads and please keep doing this brilliant work. Wish you all the best. God bless you.

[@Skyggespil]

in the wildcard assignment (column O) you dont need to do a countifs. Just write "=if(C8="*"&$O$5&"*","bo person","not a bo person". Great video, I definitely picked up a good handful of pointers

[@chandoo_]

Thank you. hmm.. which version of Excel you are using? When I test it on Excel 365, it doesn't work.

Hi Chandoo, loving your videos. For inventory analysis in manufacturing/warehousing, hope you can give us an excel method on how to determine the FEFO or "First Expiry/First Out" - *Fresher production dates are served instead of older ones* affected items. Considering the age requirements of multiple customers. This might be a bit complex, but hope you can give a simple and easy way.

Great tips Chandoo, thank you. Glad you've launched a KZbin channel too in addition to your excellent website - the comments section of those has always been a useful read too. I learnt a lot from this video, not just from the bonus and Boolean tips, but some nice chart ones too, thanks! Was wondering about the XOR "exclusive or", given it has excluded where an individual meets both criteria. Is there an alternative formula you'd recommend so that someone who meets both doesn't get excluded since they qualify for both? Thanks!

[@chandoo_]

Thanks. Yes, I always feel like comments on the site & now here on YT is a gold mine for learning new things. You can use the good old OR function in your case btw.

[@silasalexbob]

Hi Chandoo! Awesome video! The boolean was so cool. I have a doubt @12:35 - I used "=IF(COUNTIF($C$32:$C$36,C8),"On call","Not on call")" instead of your Countifs formula and it works the same for me. Any reason you are preferring the Countifs?

[@chandoo_]

Both COUNTIF and COUNTIFS work in this situation. I always use xIFS version because they give me an option to add conditions in future. One less thing to remember too.

i'm confused regarding the boolean replacement part. if the department is sales and 2018, wouldnt 2% - 1(because its true)*1% make it 1%. what does the '-' sign in front of 2% mean? is it a subtraction or does it perform a different function, because i notice there are spaces before and after the '-' sign

[@kashmoney1]

Thanks 👍 amazing video...quick ❓...I usually build dashboards suming up 3-4 criteria at once (via dropdowns); which formula do you recommend to use? I use sum formula which is quick and also do xlookups but didn't know if you have any tricks on that or any videos...!thanks as always bro!

[@chandoo_]

I use SUMIFS or other xIFS formulas for such things. If there is a bit more to the logic, then naturally lookups & INDEX will follow. Consider using new dynamic array functions to simplify the process or sorting the outputs too.
