Calculate % complete with Date Range and Today's date

Hello community,

I need a formula to return % Complete based on a start - end date range and today's date.

So for example:

Date Range: 06/18/23 - 06/30/23

Today's date: 06/26/23

As there are 12days in this date range, and today's date is day 8 out of 12, the percentage complete would be 66.6%

Thanks in advance!

    Follow up - this is my solution but maybe there is a single formula option?

    Currently I have two helper columns

    Days:=IFERROR(NETDAYS([email protected],[email protected]), "")

    Today - Start:=IF([email protected]> TODAY(), TODAY() -[email protected])

    % Complete:=IFERROR([Today - Start]@row /[email protected], "")

    Try this:

    =MAX(MIN((TODAY() -[email protected]) / ([email protected]-[email protected]), 1), 0)

    Try this:<\/p>

    =MAX(MIN((TODAY() - Start@row) \/ (Finish@row - Start@row), 1), 0)<\/p>","bodyRaw":"[{\"insert\":\"Try this:\\n=MAX(MIN((TODAY() - Start@row) \\\/ (Finish@row - Start@row), 1), 0)\\n\"}]","format":"rich","dateInserted":"2023-06-26T12:00:48+00:00","insertUser":{"userID":45516,"name":"Paul Newcome","title":"","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/profile\/Paul%20Newcome","photoUrl":"https:\/\/us.v-cdn.net\/6031209\/uploads\/userpics\/082\/nQPUTVFKKWDJ2.jpg","dateLastActive":"2023-06-27T19:56:38+00:00","banned":0,"punished":0,"private":false,"label":"✭✭✭✭✭✭"},"displayOptions":{"showUserLabel":false,"showCompactUserInfo":true,"showDiscussionLink":false,"showPostLink":false,"showCategoryLink":false,"renderFullContent":false,"expandByDefault":false},"url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/discussion\/comment\/382253#Comment_382253","embedType":"quote"}"> https://community.smartsheet.com/discussion/comment/382253#Comment_382253

    That worked, thanks again Paul!

    It also shows 100% complete when it is in the past which is great. What part of this formula makes it do that?

    Answer ✓

    =MAX(MIN((TODAY() -[email protected]) / ([email protected]-[email protected]), 1), 0)


    This does the percentage:

    (TODAY() -[email protected]) / ([email protected]-[email protected])


    This caps it at 100%:

    MIN(..............., 1)


    This keeps it from going negative for future tasks:

    MAX(..............., 0)

Double check your cross sheet references. Make sure they are all single columns by clicking on the appropriate column header.<\/p>


<\/p>

When doing this, give the sheet a little time to load before selecting the column. Sometimes moving too fast allows you to select a column header before the sheet fully loads in the creator window. Then when the sheet does finally completely load in, the selection automatically reverts to the home cell (top right corner).

Hi @Sam Swain<\/a>,<\/p>

You should be able to use this formula to accomplish this:<\/p>

=IF(HAS([Type of Project]@row, \"Consolidation\"), \"🝢\", \"//www.santa-greenland.com/community/discussion/106881/\") + IF(HAS([Type of Project]@row, \"Reduction\"), \"︾\", \"//www.santa-greenland.com/community/discussion/106881/\") + IF(HAS([Type of Project]@row, \"New\"), \"○\", \"//www.santa-greenland.com/community/discussion/106881/\") + IF(HAS([Type of Project]@row, \"Termination\"), \"⨷\", \"//www.santa-greenland.com/community/discussion/106881/\")<\/p>

Example output:<\/p>

\n
\n \n \"image.png\"<\/img><\/a>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n
