Question

Ok I have a table on a worksheet which has some columns for some calculations

PPS | Qty | TtlPrice | Comm | Fee | Ttl | format

Column Definitions

• PPS – straight Numeric(9,5)
• Qty – straight Numeric(12,0)
• ttlPrice – PPS * Qty
• Comm – Standard flat rate
• Fee – =IF([@PPS] > 1, -SUM(0.005 * [@Qty]), 0)
• Ttl – =SUM([@TtlPrice]:[@Fee])
• format – Conditional formatting control column

Problem is that when I evaluate the Fee column it actually does the inverse of what you would think. Any value above 1 is evaluated as True in the conditional clause section which then evaluates -Sum(.005*[@Qty]) instead of 0 and the vice is true, any PPS less than 1 is evaluated to False.

Is there a quirk that i havent noticed before when dealing with row reference in tables of Excel that would cause this nature?

Answer 1

Have you tried this for your fee?

=IF([@PPS] > 1, 0, -SUM(0.005 * [@Qty]))

Your question’s confused me a bit, so please comment if i’m missing something and i’ll revise/ delete my answer.
