I want to creat a “User Specific: If-Then-Else” Column but when I choose “Less than” or “Less or Equal” or “More than” or “More or Equal” I can only find “Number columns” while I have Many other columns wich has Numbers (Math Columns, Single Value Columns, If-then-Else Columns…)

like in this link [https://ibb.co/rw42jPv](https://ibb.co/rw42jPv)

Thanks Community !

Looks like your user specific column is a text column. You need to change it to a number column.

No it’s an if-then-else Column with a Number output [https://ibb.co/rw42jPv](https://ibb.co/rw42jPv)

But also when I try with Math columns its the same

Ok, I understand now. I’ll have to check. I would think the math column would work for sure. I could potentially see the if then column not showing up and maybe requiring a math column to convert it, but if you are already having problems with the math column, then that may now work. I’ll get back to you.

Not sure about marh column not being found here, but the If Then Else not being found can be because it isn’t read as a number. I faced this problem before and had to make a helper math column to convert it.

I have created Math Columns to convert to Number format but When I choose “Greather or Less than…” I can’t Find Math Columns until I make an output number in the Math Column for ex: simple calculation as " \* 1"

Yes, it’s the way I made my workaround as well. It doesn’t convert to a number unless you do some math calculation with it.
