Working a project plan and looking for a logical formula to color code the Status column:

Highlight/Color code the Status field if the start date is in the past and the status is "To be Initiated", or if the end date is in the past and the status is not "Completed"

Hi @MarianneD617<\/a> <\/p>

I hope you're well and safe!<\/p>

The easiest way is to create two Conditional Formatting Rules.<\/p>

Did that work\/help? <\/p>

I hope that helps!<\/p>

Be safe, and have a fantastic week!<\/p>

Until you can get it to work, I would delete the second automation just to make sure they aren't accidentally interfering.<\/p>

I can see that if you create a new row with the Date already filled in this automation won't work. It is only being triggered when the sheet is changed.<\/p>

The other thing I can think of is that this automation requires that you save the sheet and then wait a few seconds for it to update. If you are making changes and waiting for the automation to run without saving the sheet, this won't work. I would suggest updating the date on a row, clicking Save, then waiting up to 1 minute (it should take just a few seconds) for the sheet to update.<\/p>

If that doesn't work, will you let us know?<\/p>"},{"commentID":398886,"body":"

David! thanks you were totally right. The automation is not immediate for some reason, it takes <minute for it to run and for the box to check itself. i was being impatient.<\/p>

This works great! thanks so much.<\/p>"}]}},"status":{"statusID":3,"name":"Accepted","state":"closed","recordType":"discussion","recordSubType":"question"},"bookmarked":false,"unread":false,"category":{"categoryID":322,"name":"Formulas and Functions","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/categories\/formulas-and-functions","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":111260,"type":"question","name":"Nested IF\/AND","excerpt":"I asked a question about this the other day, when I thought I had my formulas working, but as I continued to try to resolve the issue, I found that I didn't have the correct individual formulas.
