If Statement for Selections made in a Field

Hi Community,

I have a field which has numeric values and I am trying to write an IF statement based on the selections made within that field, "# Days Post VPP". 

I have several action buttons and each action button selects a series of values from the #Days Post VPP field. 

I am trying to use the GetField Selections to determine what has been selected and calculate off of that:

If(GetFieldSelections([#of Days Post VPP])='>14', Count({$<[Gateways],[Date Type]={'VPP Dates'},Reference_Only={'No'},[#of Days Post VPP]={'>14'}>}[Gateways]),
Count({$<[Date Type]={'VPP Dates'},Reference_Only={'No'},[#of Days Post VPP]=-{' '}>}Gateways) )

But I am not able to get the intended results. Any help rendered will be truly appreciated.

can you explain what the desired result is and what you are getting with screenshots?

Can more that one value be selected for "# Days Post VPP"? if so GetFieldSelections will not be helpful. You may need to do something like concat([# Days Post VPP],'|') and try to search the values you want within it

The field # Days Post VPP has numeric values 1 - xx for thousands of line items. I have a button that selects values (>14 ) for analysis. 

I thought GetFieldSelections was going to help me as mentioned in the expression above.

put GetFieldSelections([# Days Post VPP]) into a text field and you will see that after a certain point it displays 10 of 2000 or something similar
you need concat to get the full list of values

Hope it helps
