I am hoping others who are more skilled in this area can give me a hand. I have a calculated expression that works, and it works so well that the scope is being expanded and I don't know how to make this work. Background, we have a multi-select field named "Solutions Being Implemented". Original scope was to create a calculated expression that would generate the number 1 if option "TWN" was selected, generated the number 1 if "UC" was selected or generated the number 2 if both "TWN and UC" were selected. The goal was to display the TRUE number of solutions being implemented to visualize work effort. One project manager could be implementing 4 solutions so the resource manager needs to understand that even though they have 10 projects, they are REALLY managing 20, for example. Now, the original stakeholds want the calculated expression to total the number of options selected. 1 if 1 or 2 if two or 3 if three, etc. To them it doesn't matter what is selected, then just want to know how many solutions are being implemented per project. Is there an easier way to do this? Here is a view of my custom field... Here is my current formula: IF(CONTAINS("UC",Solutions Being Implemented),IF(CONTAINS("TWN",Solutions Being Implemented),"2","1"),IF(CONTAINS("TWN",Solutions Being Implemented),"1")) Jaclyn Reiter, PMP, SA Project Manager, Strategic Initiatives Equifax, Inc.
