This FAQ covers 3 common questions about FLOOR, including error checking, combining functions, and automatic recalculation after data import.
FAQ
What should I check first if FLOOR returns an error?
- Check whether the function name is typed correctly and whether the parentheses are complete.
- Check whether the parameter format matches the current function requirements.
- Confirm that the referenced data is numeric and can be calculated.
Can FLOOR be used together with other functions?
- Start by writing a standalone FLOOR formula and confirm that it works.
- Then use the FLOOR result as an argument inside another function.
- Save the combined formula and verify that the final result matches your expectation.
Will FLOOR recalculate automatically after data import?
- After the formula field is saved, the table calculates based on the current record data.
- If imported values change the source fields, the result refreshes accordingly.
- If no result appears, check the formula format and references again.
