Hi guys,

Need your help on this, wondering if this can work.

How do I make the text in cell E6 change to:

1) 'Unassigned' if cell L3 is empty.
2) 'Assigned' if cell L3 is not empty.
3) 'Completed' if both cell L3 and M3 are not empty.

I found this formula stated below that will help me with first and second, but not the last one. :(

=IF(ISBLANK(L3),"Unassigned","Assigned")
 

Excel Facts

Which lookup functions find a value equal or greater than the lookup value?
MATCH uses -1 to find larger value (lookup table must be sorted ZA). XLOOKUP uses 1 to find values greater and does not need to be sorted.

Something like:

=IF(L3="","unassigned",IF(M3<>"","completed","assigned"))

sorry guys, is it still possible to have another criteria say if both cells are empty, the cell text will be 'not applicable'?

Try this: -

=IF(AND(L3<>"",M3<>""),"Completed",IF(L3<>"","Assigned",IF(L3="","Unassigned")))

sorry to trouble, but is it still possible to have another criteria say if both cells are empty, the cell text will be 'not applicable'?

Just add another IF Statement to the first solution, like this:

=IF(AND(L3<>"",M3<>""),"Completed",IF(AND(L3="",M3=""),"Not Applicable",IF(L3<>"","Assigned",IF(L3="","Unassigned"))))
