Hi,

I have a problem which i hope can be easily resolved ,

I have the below formula

=ROUNDDOWN(MIN(K2*Q2,I2*L2),2)

I want to remove the rundown and min from this formula , basically i only need (K2*Q2,I2*L2) , however excel rejects this.

is it possible to only use this portion of this formula.

Thanks

Do you hate GETPIVOTDATA?
Prevent GETPIVOTDATA. Select inside a PivotTable. In the Analyze tab of the ribbon, open the dropown next to Options and turn it off
That doesn't make much sense, (K2*Q2,I2*L2) returns two values, so which do you want?

Your original formula basically says -
Which is the lowest value of these two values
K2*Q2
I2*L2
and then whichever is the lowest, return that value, rounded down.

So what do you actually want to do ?

Doesn't the MIN function surrounding that take care of that (returns the minimum of those two values)?

Yes but the OP wants to remove the min function.
