Google Sheets | Checkbox | How to Insert | A Business Application | Example | Spreadsheet | Tutorial

In Google Sheets, you can insert a checkbox, which by default will have a value of TRUE or FALSE. If a checkbox is checked, it has a value of TRUE. Otherwise, it has a value of false. You can set a different value for the two states of a checkbox through the Data Validation option.
Let's consider an application of checkboxes. Say you want to compare a quarter-on-quarter (QOQ) revenues of a chain of stores of a company. Assume that the company has three stores. Create nine checkboxes, three
for Store A for Q1 to Q2, Q2 to Q3, and Q2 to Q4. Same is true for Store B and Store C.
The next step is to use the IF function, one each for the nine QOQ checkboxes, to check if a checkbox has a value of TRUE or FALSE. If TRUE, write the expression that calculates the increase or decrease of revenue on a quarter-on-quarter basis. If FALSE, assign a value, which is optional.
