Conditional calculation unexpectedly setting value to 0 -

[bdav1216]

See the attached workbook:

In my sample workbook, Column BZ (PROD Associate Capacity Score) calculates the maximum score based on the formula. Columns CC (Primary Associate Capacity Score) AND CA (SEC Associate Capacity Score) split that score according to the weights that I have defined in the ‘PROD Workload Look Up Table -> Columns U, V and W. Depending on the Order Status (Column C), and when the CSC is not equal to the primary, the points are distributed between Column BY and BZ. Columns CC and CA split the points from Column BZ. This IS working as I intended

Question: If I wanted the Primary (Column CC) to get 100% of the points (not what is currently being referred to in the look-up table), would I simply change this 1.00?

The UA Associate Capacity Score (Column CB) is calculating correctly. The UA is defined when the CSC = Primary. When this is the case, Column CC (Primary Associate Capacity Score) should be set to 0. Here’s what I’m seeing as not working correctly.
1) Column BY is populating with a 0 value. It should be populating depending on the Order Status to the look-up table. Right now, it seems all of the points are being sent to CB.
2) Column CB seems to be populating the value of BY + BZ. In the first example, 75 points (Column BZ) + Column BY (should be 18.75, but is showing 0)….Instead 93.75 points are going to Column CB.

I would like Column BY to calculate its expected value, but the UA Associate Capacity Score should output with the value it is currently populating with, and CA (SEC Associate Capacity Score) column should be split according to the weights that I have defined in the ‘PROD Workload Look Up Table-> Columns U, V and W.

Any ideas on how to correct this?

If I understand the question correctly column CC is already getting 100% because on the PROD Workload Look Up Table V2:V5 all have values of 1. It would seem to me that if you wanted column CC to get all the points you could shorten the formula to:

I tested an got the same values as were currently displayed. I know that I am not addressing your entire post. I will try to get back to the 2 items that 'are not working correctly' later if someone else hasn't resolved those issues first.

Thank you. To address your first point, you did greatly simplify the formula and that does work.

Let me know if you need any clarification on the 2nd point.

The formula in BY2 yields zero because the of the segment IF([@CSC]=[@Primary],0, If that segment is removed then the result of BY2 is 18.75 as mentioned, also the values of BY7:BY17 are the same as prior to the change. Removing that segment leaves the following as the formula that would populate BY2:BY17
