# OR

The **OR** function returns TRUE if at least one of the specified conditions is true. It returns FALSE only when all conditions evaluate to FALSE. It is commonly used with IF and other conditional functions to evaluate multiple criteria.

### Syntax

```javascript
OR(logical_test1,[logical_test2], ... )
```

### Arguments

logical\_test1 - The first condition to evaluate. Required.

logical\_test2, ... - Additional conditions to evaluate. Optional.

### **Return value**

Either TRUE or FALSE.

### **Example**

<pre class="language-javascript"><code class="lang-javascript"><strong>IF(OR([Region]=="United States",[Sub Category]=="Juices"),30500000,0)
</strong></code></pre>

In this example, values are assigned to the *2027 Plan* using the **OR** function within an [IF](https://docs.inforiver.com/formula-syntax/conditional-statements/if) statement. The formula returns 30.5m for records where the *Region* is 'United States' **or** the *Sub Category* is 'Juices', and 0 for all other records.
