I want to know if there is a way to incorporate IF THEN ELSE in advanced formula field in Asana. Here is my current setup:
Right now in my formula, if the date of start is before what it is today, it gives me %Complete negative number. So i wanted this formula : IF StartDate=Today then 100 - ( [[$DUE_DATE]] - [[$TODAY]] ) * 100 / ( [[$DUE_DATE]] - [[$STARTED_AT]] ); ELSE (0). But it can not read it
Hi @Jonathan_W , instead of a formula you may want to try using a rule instead, by leveraging the new number comparison condition which can then populate your number fields, just like a formula (or any other action, as you please)

Unfortunately no, this is not currently possible. But you can use Rules that if a single-select / multi-select field is changed, it could change the any number fields, which would in turn affect a formula field (if those numbers were included in that formula).
Yes, this feature is much needed. I need to know what today’s percent allocation is. The rollup feature does not take into account Start date and Due date when calculating percent allocation totals.
As someone who frequently uses advanced Excel formulas, I need to have this functionality available!
Setting up seven different rules to check if a condition is met feels like a waste of time; at this point, it would be faster for me to enter the information manually. I often spend over two hours each week—if not daily—trying to fix, format, adjust, and create basically everything.
I’ve been using Asana for eight months now, and I’m still struggling to adjust to its limited functionality and personalizations. (My expectations might be too high, though.)
Adding this simple formula setup would make things so much easier! Honestly, it would really improve my experience with the platform and make it way more enjoyable to use!
