Conditional Formatting Across Sheets

Hi, we have a Scheduling Sheet (with columns, wk 01, wk 02, wk 03, wk 04, etc). A Delivery Date column links into this sheet from another sheet.

What we do at present is highlight the relevant week column based on the date in delivery date, so for example from Jan 2nd to Jan 8th is wk 01 this year. (See screenshot attached)

The problem is the Delivery Dates can often change so the highlighted cell needs to then be manually changed. We are looking at a way of automating this and thought using conditional formatting might work, so that if the date falls within a certain range it highlights the relevant column (Screenshot attached).

We need to do this across multiple sheets so are wondering if there is any method where a Template or Master Sheet can be setup and the Conditional Formatting can then be applied to certain sheets without having to update each individually? Would Control Centre allow us to do this?

You would create the sheet first, then you can click on \"Forms\" in the top right corner of the new sheet to create the form.<\/p>


<\/p>

If you need a bunch of the same columns, You can \"Save as new\" the existing sheet and then just delete whatever you don't need from each sheet.<\/p>"}]}},"status":{"statusID":3,"name":"Accepted","state":"closed","recordType":"discussion","recordSubType":"question"},"bookmarked":false,"unread":false,"category":{"categoryID":321,"name":"Smartsheet Basics","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/categories\/smartsheet-basics%2B","allowedDiscussionTypes":[]},"reactions":[{"tagID":3,"urlcode":"Promote","name":"Promote","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":5,"count":0},{"tagID":5,"urlcode":"Insightful","name":"Insightful","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0},{"tagID":11,"urlcode":"Up","name":"Vote Up","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0},{"tagID":13,"urlcode":"Awesome","name":"Awesome","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0}],"tags":[]},{"discussionID":109205,"type":"question","name":"Auto Populate Column Data","excerpt":"I have a sheet that I am populating row one with data inputted using an intake form (Form1).

Yes. The \"@row\" piece of the formula is looking for the cell within the row of the formula. So on any row where the meta columns are blank, \"@row\" will also return blank.<\/p>
