Active Employees & Retention Rate
Hi,
Thank you. This is what I have changed the formula too and still nothing.
Check if you have the right amount of brackets. Otherwise I don't know.

Hi,
I have checked and the number of brackets seems to be correct. I am not sure why it is not working.

Yeah I see. It is related to your brackets after all you're doing this:
ISBLANK(DATE = true)
it should be:
ISBLANK(DATE) = true
What you are initially saying is:
Is date = true?
What you should be doing is:
Is a row of the column date blank

Thanks so much for double checking this for me .
All working fine.
I will look into the retention rate and get back to you.

Hi,
I have looked into the different options and as you advised, I believe a calculated column is better.
However, they are few things I need to take into consideration. My calculated column should not include any results where the finish date is in the past. I also have finish dates set up in the future and I would like to have the retention rate calculated as current not based on the future date. Lastly, some employees have been working for us in a matter of months and I would like it to be simply displayed as months without details but have it definite for years.
Would you be able to guide me ?
thanks

I've got a busy day today sadly but I can walk you through the concepts:
Concatenatex is your friend here, you can use that to filter a table to your liking and ONLY concatenate those. Try and alter the calculated column to return something of that format.
