OK or KO
Example 2
Formula
=CELLIF(
=CELLEQ(#StorageExample.Status.METADATA; "Draft");
"red";

=CELLEQ(#StorageExample.Status.METADATA; "In Progress");
"yellow";
"green")
)
Description
We preformed this formula in the Layout Cell Background Color of a field. There are only 3 Status allowed: Draft, In Progress and Completed. Formula checks if the cell values of the field Status in the StorageExample are equal to Draft, then color of the cell is red, else if the cell values of the field Status in the StorageExample are equal to In Progress, then the color of the cell is yellow, else is green (so when the Status is Completed)
Result
