    Thanks a lot! In german google sheets, I had to replace all the commas with semicolon, then it worked:
    =IFS(B2="";"";A2="";now();TRUE;A2)

    Unfortunately every time you reopen the document it recalculates the formula there for the date changes.

      I found this: =IF(OR(B43"",C43""), lambda(x,x)(now()), ""). I don't know why it works, but adding the lambda(x,x) makes just the value part of the cell and not the formula. I do use this for tracking paper trades in stocks and it infuriated me every time the cells would reset!

    Hi ! I watched the video, and it's perfect, it helped me a lot, but I got a problem. When I refresh the internet page, it automaticaly update the time and date, like if it was 0:21 and I refresh at 0:33, it will change the 0:21 for 0:33, how could I change that ?

    Hey, how can we do it if any of two or more columns have a value? Suppose, besides "Stock", there's another column "Mutual Funds", so if any of the "Stocks" or "Mutual Funds" column have a value, or both have values, we'll get the timestamp.
    (EDIT) Made it : [=ifs(and(b2="",c2=""),"",A2="",now(),true,A2)]

      @@ayommanunggal848 for me personally it had to do with a setting in excel not available on IOS. I’m not sure if you have IOS also, but I had to get on windows and open excel, adjust the setting then save it and open it on IOS. It’s been months so I can’t remember what that setting was I believe it was in format somewhere?

  • @RakeshSingh-yd7xo
    @RakeshSingh-yd7xo 3 роки тому +1

    Can I use this thing by the script because I already used this formula for almost 2 years but earlier we found a bug date (timestamp) that is automatically changed every time whenever I open the sheet. For solution of this problem I am currently using a script "onedit()" but in this script i am not able to set key value to run this trigger. When I use formula I user If A2="done" then lock the time stamp if A2 ="" then put this cell as null. Please help me.

    However I ran into some little problem, when I have multiple lines of records, if I change the content of one of the stock name, some of the date (mine is including hour and minutes) will automatically change as well. Is there any way to make the time stamp unchangeable once it got the time?

    @rubenstones8684 Рік тому

    Ok so my timestamp shows up, but now my formula that counts days from my date stopped working [=datedif(A2,Today(),"d")]. How can i get the datedif function to work with this timestamp formula? Originally i had to enter the date manually and the datedif had no problem calculating days from that, but it does not calculate the days when i introduce the timestamp formula. is there a way to get them both working so that when i write on my cell it triggers both formulas? hope that makes sense.
