Greetings,

I have three (Number) fields: Field1, Field2, Field3 that track Cost.

I am looking for a calculation that will accomplish this logic.

If there is no value in Field3, Field2.

If there is no value in Field3 or Field2, Field1.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Case ( IsEmpty ( Field2 ) AND IsEmpty ( Field3 ), Field1, IsEmpty ( Field3 ), Field 2 ) )

What about when there is something in Field 3 but not 2?

There will always be something in field2. There has to be something in field2 before field3 can occur.

Thanks for the feedback, much appreciated, I will implement this into my system.

Thanks again.

Greetings,

I have three (Number) fields: Field1, Field2, Field3 that track Cost.

I am looking for a calculation result that will take the ladder of these 3 arguments:

If Field1 has a value,1

If Field2 has a value,2

If Field3 has a value,3

Meaning, if there is a value in field1, field1. If there is a value in field1 and field2, field2. I there is a value in field1,field2 and field3, field3.

Note: If there is a value in field3, there will always be info in field1 and field2. If there is a value in field2, there will always be a value in field1.

I apologize for posting a similar question last week, my requirements have changed.

Thank you kindly.

There's probably a more fun and elegant solution, but here:

Case(

  Field3 ; 3 ; 

  Field2 ; 2 ; 

  Field1 ; 1 )

Oh, if you're in FM6 use commas instead of semicolons.

I merged your two topics, and sent you a Private Topic to explain why.

Fitch, that works perfect. Thank you all for your help.
