It sounds like you want to have the sum in column D show the actual
sum unless that value exceeds 30. If so, the formula would be:
=IF(SUM(A3:D3)>30,30,SUM(A3:D3))

What do you mean by 'if it exceeds'?

If you want Column D (which is the sum of A,B,C) to show 30 if the result of
the Sum exceeds 30 then use this in Col D.

=IF(SUM(A3:C3)>30,30,SUM(A3:C3))

If you want Col E to show 30 even if Col D exceeds 30 then use this in E

=IF(D3>30,30,D3)

Hope that helps.

Instead of =IF(SUM(A3:C3)>30,30,SUM(A3:C3)) you could use
=MIN(SUM(A3:C3),30)
and instead of =IF(D3>30,30,D3) you could use =MIN(D3,30)
