You can use an IF function within another IF function to create a nested IF function. A nested IF function allows you to test for a second condition if the first condition is found false. For example, an IF function could test whether a number is equal to 1 . If false, another IF function within the first could test whether the number is equal to 2 .

The syntax of a nested IF function is:

=IF(logical test,value if true,IF(logical test,value if true,value if false))

You can create formulas with up to 64 levels of nested functions.
