    Hi Dane ,

     

    Does this one here work for you?

    IF (
        SEARCH ( 
            "2L",
            OrderDetails[PartNumber],
            1,
            BLANK()
        ),
        TrackingHistory[Width] *2,
        ( TrackingHistory[Width] *2 ) + ( TrackingHistory[Height] *2 )
    )


    I pressumed that your logical test shall search for "2L" in PartNumber, meaning "2L" could come up at different positions in a string (i.e. "ABC 2L", "2L DEF", "GHI 2L JKL" etc.). 

     

    Let me know if this helps and if not, feel free to share some sample data and I can take a deeper look into it 🙂
