I want to have the "Reason" Column (approximately a few hundred rows a day) automatically populate based on the values of certain cells. I added a table above for reference of what I am trying to accomplish. If there are values in the Wave, Short, Hem, or Use Columns, those will all need to be shown in the Reason Column, separated with a comma and space as demonstrated above.

A few tricky parts:

  • For "Wave", I want the "Reason Column" to display "Wave" only if "Bloc" is in the "Wave Column"
  • For "Short", anything that is not blank will result in "Short" being displayed in the Reason Column.
  • For "Hem", if the value equals "Stic", I want the reason to show "Sticking Hem". If it has any other value that is not blank, I want the reason to only show
  • For "Use", if the value is any number greater than 2, I want Reason to be shown as "Short", but only if it does not already state short from previous entries


I greatly appreciate the guidance!
