    If your budget hierarchy has the top level node as the name of the budget/project then you apply the exact same logic to the column at the top level node. Use the same formula =SUM(CHILDREN()), it will only calculate the SUM of only its immediate children.

With the symbols you are using, the options would typically be represented by the text entries [Empty, Quarter, Half, Three Quarter, Full]. In this case, this should work:<\/p>

=IF(COUNTIF(CHILDREN([BallCell]@row), \"Empty\") = COUNT(CHILDREN([BallCell]@row)), \"Not Started\", IF(COUNTIF(CHILDREN([BallCell]@row), \"Full\") = COUNT(CHILDREN([BallCell]@row)), \"Completed\", \"In Progress\"))<\/p>

If you do have your sheet setup somehow so that the entries are respresented by [0, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75, 1], then this should work:<\/p>

=IF(COUNTIF(CHILDREN([BallCell]@row), < 0.25) = COUNT(CHILDREN([BallCell]@row)), \"Not Started\", IF(COUNTIF(CHILDREN([BallCell]@row), 1) = COUNT(CHILDREN([BallCell]@row)), \"Completed\", \"In Progress\"))<\/p>

In either case, you will need to substitute [BallCell] with the name of the column with your symbols. The column name is not visible in your screenshot.<\/p>"}]}},"status":{"statusID":3,"name":"Accepted","state":"closed","recordType":"discussion","recordSubType":"question"},"bookmarked":false,"unread":false,"category":{"categoryID":322,"name":"Formulas and Functions","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/categories\/formulas-and-functions","allowedDiscussionTypes":[]},"reactions":[{"tagID":3,"urlcode":"Promote","name":"Promote","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":5,"count":0},{"tagID":5,"urlcode":"Insightful","name":"Insightful","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0},{"tagID":11,"urlcode":"Up","name":"Vote Up","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0},{"tagID":13,"urlcode":"Awesome","name":"Awesome","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0}],"tags":[]},{"discussionID":106869,"type":"question","name":"Formula to Assign Symbol based on a cell's value","excerpt":"This is a complicated one that I once got to work with RGY balls, but cannot figure out how to apply this to the Pain scale emojis.

Hi @MeganJF<\/p>

I guess you forget to use AND( ).<\/p>
