# HAS\_SOME

The HAS\_SOME identifier checks if one or more of the specified values are part of the list. It can be used with formula columns, and data input columns (select, multi-select) and returns TRUE or FALSE.

## Syntax

```javascript
has_some(column1, [column2],..., searchvalue1, [searchvalue2],...)
```

## Arguments

column1, column2 - The list of columns where the search needs to be performed. The argument column1 is required and other columns are optional.

searchvalue1, searchvalue2 - The list of values of to search in the columns. The argument searchvalue1 is required and other searchvalues are optional.

## **Example**

Let us consider the below scenario.&#x20;

The 'Project status' column is created using the data input column of type single select and status is defined for each product. Based on the status, funds are allocated and the expected project completion time is defined.&#x20;

The 'Fund allocation' column is a data input - number column, which uses the HAS\_SOME identifier to search for status and assign funds based on project status.&#x20;

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.inforiver.com/premium-table/formula-syntax/identifiers/has_some.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
