Join Collect formula for multiple values

Zeb Loewenstein

Is it possible to use a Join / Collect formula, which references a multi-select dropdown list in one sheet to find and query an array of values?

In Sheet 1, I'm querying a set of values however I can't seem to pull anything forward when multiple values are listed in the Client Name column. I'm trying to pull forward every Intake ID # (Sheet 2) for each Client Name (Sheet 1).

So ideally the empty cell below would read "OPS12, OPS33".

=JOIN(COLLECT([Client Name]@row, [Client Name]@row, CONTAINS(@cell, {Column_Client Name})), ",")

Double check your cross sheet references. Make sure they are all single columns by clicking on the appropriate column header.<\/p>


<\/p>

When doing this, give the sheet a little time to load before selecting the column. Sometimes moving too fast allows you to select a column header before the sheet fully loads in the creator window. Then when the sheet does finally completely load in, the selection automatically reverts to the home cell (top right corner). This happens to me quite a bit when I am in a hurry.<\/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":[{"tagID":254,"urlcode":"Formulas","name":"Formulas"}]},{"discussionID":106940,"type":"question","name":"IF cell CONTAINS one\/two\/three different values, return corresponding values","excerpt":"Hello community, I am attempting to return single or multiple values depending on a multiple dropdown column.

Hi @Sam Swain<\/a>,<\/p>

You should be able to use this formula to accomplish this:<\/p>

=IF(HAS([Type of Project]@row, \"Consolidation\"), \"🝢\", \"//m.santa-greenland.com/community/discussion/comment/\") + IF(HAS([Type of Project]@row, \"Reduction\"), \"︾\", \"//m.santa-greenland.com/community/discussion/comment/\") + IF(HAS([Type of Project]@row, \"New\"), \"○\", \"//m.santa-greenland.com/community/discussion/comment/\") + IF(HAS([Type of Project]@row, \"Termination\"), \"⨷\", \"//m.santa-greenland.com/community/discussion/comment/\")<\/p>

Example output:<\/p>

Hope this helps - if there are any issues etc. then just post! ☺️<\/span><\/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":[{"tagID":254,"urlcode":"Formulas","name":"Formulas"}]},{"discussionID":106930,"type":"question","name":"Help with date formate","excerpt":"I have my months extracted from a date column using =Left(EISD@row,2) I need a formula to evaluate my month column, if it's 01-06 it returns an S, if its 07-12 (or <=7) then it returns an F.","snippet":"I have my months extracted from a date column using =Left(EISD@row,2) I need a formula to evaluate my month column, if it's 01-06 it returns an S, if its 07-12 (or <=7) then it…","categoryID":322,"dateInserted":"2023-06-26T22:42:11+00:00","dateUpdated":null,"dateLastComment":"2023-06-27T12:53:54+00:00","insertUserID":157924,"insertUser":{"userID":157924,"name":"jpaul","title":"Mr.","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/profile\/jpaul","photoUrl":"https:\/\/us.v-cdn.net\/6031209\/uploads\/userpics\/34U84XEA80NI\/nJBANQUTUTY9A.png","dateLastActive":"2023-06-27T18:03:26+00:00","banned":0,"punished":0,"private":false,"label":"✭✭✭✭"},"updateUserID":null,"lastUserID":157924,"lastUser":{"userID":157924,"name":"jpaul","title":"Mr.","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/profile\/jpaul","photoUrl":"https:\/\/us.v-cdn.net\/6031209\/uploads\/userpics\/34U84XEA80NI\/nJBANQUTUTY9A.png","dateLastActive":"2023-06-27T18:03:26+00:00","banned":0,"punished":0,"private":false,"label":"✭✭✭✭"},"pinned":false,"pinLocation":null,"closed":false,"sink":false,"countComments":2,"countViews":26,"score":null,"hot":3375690965,"url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/discussion\/106930\/help-with-date-formate","canonicalUrl":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/discussion\/106930\/help-with-date-formate","format":"Rich","lastPost":{"discussionID":106930,"commentID":382517,"name":"Re: Help with date formate","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/discussion\/comment\/382517#Comment_382517","dateInserted":"2023-06-27T12:53:54+00:00","insertUserID":157924,"insertUser":{"userID":157924,"name":"jpaul","title":"Mr.","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/profile\/jpaul","photoUrl":"https:\/\/us.v-cdn.net\/6031209\/uploads\/userpics\/34U84XEA80NI\/nJBANQUTUTY9A.png","dateLastActive":"2023-06-27T18:03:26+00:00","banned":0,"punished":0,"private":false,"label":"✭✭✭✭"}},"breadcrumbs":[{"name":"Home","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/"},{"name":"Formulas and Functions","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/categories\/formulas-and-functions"}],"groupID":null,"statusID":3,"attributes":{"question":{"status":"accepted","dateAccepted":"2023-06-27T12:53:24+00:00","dateAnswered":"2023-06-26T23:07:25+00:00","acceptedAnswers":[{"commentID":382460,"body":"

Assuming your result will only ever be 01-12, this should do the trick. The VALUE() function may not necessarily be needed, but I'm not sure what type of date you are pulling the month information from and it isn't going to hurt anything.<\/p>

=IF([Month Column]@row <> \"//m.santa-greenland.com/community/discussion/comment/\", IF(VALUE([Month Column]@row) < 7, \"S\", \"F\"))<\/p>

Replace [Month Column] with your column name.<\/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":[]}],"initialPaging":{"nextURL":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/api\/v2\/discussions?page=2&categoryID=322&includeChildCategories=1&type%5B0%5D=Question&excludeHiddenCategories=1&sort=-hot&limit=3&expand%5B0%5D=all&expand%5B1%5D=-body&expand%5B2%5D=insertUser&expand%5B3%5D=lastUser&status=accepted","prevURL":null,"currentPage":1,"total":10000,"limit":3},"title":"Trending in Formulas and Functions ","subtitle":null,"description":null,"noCheckboxes":true,"containerOptions":[],"discussionOptions":[]}">
