Failing at every turn to get the correct formula.

IF cell P1 contains the word Delivery concatenate 3 cells together. This I have been able to do. but adding If Cell P1 is equal to Pickup then merge these 3 cells. When it says Delivery im good but otherwise I will get a False return instead.

=IF(P1="Delivery","Pickup" CONCATENATE(Q1&" "&AE1&" "&AI1&", &Q1&""&AF1&"""&AJ1)
 

Excel Facts

Why are there 1,048,576 rows in Excel?
The Excel team increased the size of the grid in 2007. There are 2^20 rows and 2^14 columns for a total of 17 billion cells.
Welcome to the Board!

If you checking for two conditions, you need to do a nested IF, i.e.
=IF(P1= "Delivery",do this,IF(P1="Pickup",do that,do nothing))

Hi. Maybe you mean this?

=IF(P1="Delivery",Q1&" "&AE1&" "&AI1,IF(P1="Pickup",Q1&AF1&AJ1,"Contains Neither"))
