    In Excel 365, nested formulas allow to combine two or more functions to perform logical calculations. In this video, learn how to use the IF and AND functions to test two or more conditions in order to return one or more results. This video aligns with the MO-211 Microsoft Excel Expert Exam objective: Perform logical operations by using nested functions including the IF(), IFS(), SWITCH(), SUMIF(), AVERAGEIF(), COUNTIF(), SUMIFS(), AVERAGEIFS(), COUNTIFS(), MAXIFS(), MINIFS(), AND(), OR(), NOT(), and LET() functions.

    3.  Combining logical functions in Excel 365
    5m 24s
    In Excel 365, you can perform logical operations, such as using the NOT function, to check if one value is not equal to another. You can even combine qualifying and alternative conditions such as combining the OR and IF functions in a formula. This video aligns with the MO-211 Microsoft Excel Expert Exam objective: Perform logical operations by using nested functions including the IF(), IFS(), SWITCH(), SUMIF(), AVERAGEIF(), COUNTIF(), SUMIFS(), AVERAGEIFS(), COUNTIFS(), MAXIFS(), MINIFS(), AND(), OR(), NOT(), and LET() functions.

    4.  Using the IFS and SWITCH functions in Excel 365
    5m 53s
    The IFS function in Excel simplifies checking multiple conditions by returning the result for the first true one, thereby replacing complex nested IF constructs. The SWITCH function assesses a single value against various cases, delivering the associated outcome for a match, and includes a default return option when no matches are present. This video aligns with the MO-211 Microsoft Excel Expert Exam objective: Perform logical operations by using nested functions including the IF(), IFS(), SWITCH(), SUMIF(), AVERAGEIF(), COUNTIF(), SUMIFS(), AVERAGEIFS(), COUNTIFS(), MAXIFS(), MINIFS(), AND(), OR(), NOT(), and LET() functions.

    5.  Calculating totals with conditions in Excel 365
    6m 15s
    In Excel 365, use the SUMIF and SUMIFS functions to perform a conditional sum calculation on a cell range based on certain criteria being met. In this video, explore how to insert and use conditional SUM formulas in Excel 365. This video aligns with the MO-211 Microsoft Excel Expert Exam objective: Perform logical operations by using nested functions including the IF(), IFS(), SWITCH(), SUMIF(), AVERAGEIF(), COUNTIF(), SUMIFS(), AVERAGEIFS(), COUNTIFS(), MAXIFS(), MINIFS(), AND(), OR(), NOT(), and LET() functions.

    6.  Using conditional average functions in Excel 365
    5m 10s
    If you need to calculate the average in a certain range but have a criteria to apply, you can use the AVERAGEIF function. Excel also proposes the AVERAGEIFS function that calculates the average in a range if you have more than one criteria. This video aligns with the MO-211 Microsoft Excel Expert Exam objective: Perform logical operations by using nested functions including the IF(), IFS(), SWITCH(), SUMIF(), AVERAGEIF(), COUNTIF(), SUMIFS(), AVERAGEIFS(), COUNTIFS(), MAXIFS(), MINIFS(), AND(), OR(), NOT(), and LET() functions.

    7.  Counting data with conditions in Excel 365
    4m 32s
    You can use the COUNTIFS function when you need to count the number of cells that meet one or more criteria. With COUNTIFS, you can apply more than one criteria in more than one range. Excel also offers the NOT function, that returns the opposite of a logical value. Combined with the IF function you can determine, for example, the availability of a product. This video aligns with the MO-211 Microsoft Excel Expert Exam objective: Perform logical operations by using nested functions including the IF(), IFS(), SWITCH(), SUMIF(), AVERAGEIF(), COUNTIF(), SUMIFS(), AVERAGEIFS(), COUNTIFS(), MAXIFS(), MINIFS(), AND(), OR(), NOT(), and LET() functions.

    8.  Using the MAXIFS and MINIFS functions in Excel 365
    5m 28s
    The MINIFS and MAXIFS functions allow you to find the minimum and maximum value in a range after applying one or more criteria. You can use logical operators and wild card for partial matching if necessary. This video aligns with the MO-211 Microsoft Excel Expert Exam objective: Perform logical operations by using nested functions including the IF(), IFS(), SWITCH(), SUMIF(), AVERAGEIF(), COUNTIF(), SUMIFS(), AVERAGEIFS(), COUNTIFS(), MAXIFS(), MINIFS(), AND(), OR(), NOT(), and LET() functions.

    9.  Using the LET function in Excel 365
    5m 16s
    The LET function in Excel allows you to assign names to calculation results. This can help you simplify complex formulas, make them more readable, and potentially increase their calculation speed by avoiding redundant calculations. This video aligns with the MO-211 Microsoft Excel Expert Exam objective: Perform logical operations by using nested functions including the IF(), IFS(), SWITCH(), SUMIF(), AVERAGEIF(), COUNTIF(), SUMIFS(), AVERAGEIFS(), COUNTIFS(), MAXIFS(), MINIFS(), AND(), OR(), NOT(), and LET() functions.
