hi there, I have set up a dashboard in my app for users to see their progress related to the day they plan to do a training. The formula makes calculations based on the date planned by the user. 2 questions.
when the user has not planned the date, nothing is shown and I want it to say 0.
prior to the date the formula now gives negative results, so I want it to stay at 0 and count from the 1st day onwards.
Hello Elianne, about the negative sign, you can change the number format and make it removed, but i think your counting condition is wrong, and about the 1st question, are you using any conditions?
Are you adding filter to that count?
sorry about that way for us here it’s just theoretically we can’t see what’s really happening in the app, add filter on the date planned like: date planned is after current time.
also, I am not sure if this filter is the solution. the planned date will always be after current time already, because it’s a date in the future. the problem is that until that date starts the results of the formula are negative. and they should just remain at zero.
Oh i can see now, what you are doing, is showing the user’s date plan, and now count. So if the user doesn’t have a planned date, nothing will appear. Is the date plan available in some collection?
hi Jimmy, thanks, I think I understand what you mean. I have added it to the formula, but it still does not work. Should I include this count & filter in the formula? or somewhere else?
hi! thanks so much for the offer, that is really kind of you. I just solved it with visibility rule. Thanks so much for your help and patience :). kind regards, Elianne
