How to use end date and percentage complete to automate RYG status

Hi everyone,

Maybe my brain is struggling with IF and AND statements, but this is defeating me.

I am trying to use the end date of a task compared to today's date and the percentage complete (great than or equal to 75%) to drive my status column of red, yellow, green balls.

I think I need to find a way to combine the following forumlas:

Task is at or past the due date and the percentage complete is less than 100% = RED

=IF(TODAY() - [End Date]3 <= 0, "Red")

=IF([% Complete]# < 1 , “Red”)

Task is within 5 days of the due date and the percentage complete is 75% or greater = YELLOW

=IF(TODAY() - [End Date]# >= -5 , “Yellow”)

=IF([% Complete]# >= .75 , “Yellow”)

Task is at or past the due date and the percentage complete is 100% = GREEN

=IF(TODAY() - [End Date]# >= 0 , “Green”)

=IF([% Complete]# = 1 , “Green”)

Any suggestions would be great!

Thanks,

-matt

Hi Candace,<\/p>

The answer is YES. You can use \"Send as Attachment\" feature in the File menu of your sheet to setup the schedule for your need. You should be a licensed user to use this feature as well (I remembered that). <\/p>

Hope this works for you.<\/p>

You would use the below for Jan 2023 and adjust the month and year numbers accordingly for each of the other months.<\/p>
