Referencing checked state of Flag symbol using formula

I want to use a Flag column to mark high-priority tasks and calculate a reduced lead time.

In a Due Date column I use a formula to add 7 days to the Received Date. I want to change the formula so that it adds only 5 days IF the flag is checked. I can't seem to find out how to reference the value of the flag cell, though. Is there a way to do this?

If I'm understanding your question correctly, you want to counts from one column but want to exclude projects that have an \"On Hold\" status in a second column. If so, then a countifs formula would work:<\/p>

=COUNTIFS({Column to Count}, \"Unallocated\", {Other column}, <>\"On Hold\")<\/p>

Hope this helps!<\/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":107082,"type":"question","name":"Automatic Update of Dropdown List?","excerpt":"I saw several discussions on this and I'm wondering if there is a formula or an easy way without a 3rd party to automatically update a dropdown list based on a cell in one sheet?

I haven't seen this possible without the use of a 3rd party integration. I don't believe it is supported natively in Smartsheet. The question comes up all the time though. <\/p>

Does your company use Single Sing-On? There were some updates that took affect yesterday. I wonder if maybe that is affecting things since it seems to be an issue with being part of the company's account.<\/p>
