Must be modified in Excel and not Google Sheets to maintain conditional formatting

On the Proforma Invoice tab, under payments/credits.
Excelchat Expert
02/10/2018 - 07:43
Yes
User

I want the payments/credits to be called Deposits Received if there is a value in K9 on the overview page
User
02/10/2018 - 07:44
And Payments/Credits if that value is 0 or blank
Excelchat Expert
02/10/2018 - 07:45
Ok. Understood. If K9 on Overview page is 0 or blank then "Payments/Credits" otherwise Deposits Received"
User
02/10/2018 - 07:45
