Hello,

What formula should I use for the code line item? Instructions did not specifically describe the code.

    Oh, so close @JeemarieB - I should have been more precise. When I wrote "list" you need to put the list you want to address. So it will look close to this, all depends on what you named the list. CODE(ITEM('P3 SKU'))

    Notice that when you have any characters that are not alpha numeric, like the number "3", you will have to put the list in single quotes like'P3 SKU'

    See if that helps.

    You can use the CODE function which will return a text formatted value. So, CODE(ITEM(List)). If done correctly will look like these codes here.

    Hi Jared,

    Formula is invalid on my end. Is there something I'm doing wrong here?

    It worked! However,I noticed that the font for the codes changed from blue to black. Is this how it's supposed to be?

    Astute observation! Yes, when you enter a formula the font will be black as an indication that the cell will not be editable. Anytime you see a blue font, the cell is editable. Good job! You're quickly becoming an Anaplan Champion.
