    IF / IFS Formula to highlight required Action

    Hi, I am just looking for help with an IF formula. The formula is needed to give me a required action depending on outcome.

    If the ACTUAL is between the TARGET and UPPER - "double check"

    If the ACTUAL is over the UPPER - "add water"

    If the ACTUAL is between the TARGET and LOWER - "ok"

    I have tried the below formulas to no avail and i cannot seem to figure it out.

    =IF(I2>F2, "Add Water",IF(I2<F2>G2, "Double Check", "OK"))

    =IF(I2>F2, "Add Water",IF(I2<F2 and>G2, "Double Check", "OK"))


    Photos attached

    If anything needs clarifying just let me know.

    Hi Wayne,

    Thanks for the help!

    Just in relation to if its < than target but > than lower - "OK".

    This doesn't seem to be working correctly.

    New formula : =IF(I2>F2, "Add Water", IF(AND(I2<F2, F2>G2), "Double Check", "OK"))

    Lower based on your snapshot is in col H BUT in your formula you don't refer to any cell in col H.

    yes, as it should be "OK" - as falls within the condition if ACTUAL is between the TARGET and LOWER

    Re: IF / IFS Formula to highlight required Action

    this is TRUE
    AND(I2<F2, F2>G2)
    For ROW 9
    I9 = 14.81
    F9 = 17.3
    G9 = 15

    I2<F2>G2
    14.81 < 17.3 > 15.0
    so thats true
    hence double check
