Hi Good day!

I need some help regarding this case. To make it fast, IF i input in A1 "-100", then I want to return in the same cell (AED 100) but if I input "100" (without negative) it will return AED 100 (no parenthesis.

This goes to any number not just 100. The key factor is that negative sign. Thanks for the help!

How to fill five years of quarters?
Type 1Q-2023 in a cell. Grab the fill handle and drag down or right. After 4Q-2023, Excel will jump to 1Q-2024. Dash can be any character.

Assuming you are dealing with whole numbers only (as per your example), you do not need to use Conditional Formattint... you can do what you want with a normal Custom Format for the cell, just use this type pattern...

"AED" 0;("AED" 0)
