Estimate Date Planned against the target date

I need to calculate the planned date against the Go-Live date for each column. The dates are above the columns that should be prior to the Go-Live Target which is 10/31/22. I need to make the actual columns cells yellow for 3 dates against the planned date, red at the planned date. If a date is entered in actual column, the cell will turn green.

I am having a hard time to get this to work

Any help I will appreciate!

    @Rob_NYCyour question is a two-parter...

    1. The dates need to be calculated and are simple math
    2. in the [Lan Migration Complete Planned] it would be =[Go-Live Target]
    3. In the [LANMigration Scheduled Planned] it would be =[Lan Migration Complete Planned]-5
    4. In [LAN Migration Ready Approved Planned] it would be =[LANMigration Scheduled Planned]-10
    5. In the [Lan Migration Ready Planned] it would be =[LAN Migration Ready Approved Planned]-13

    Then you would use conditional formats in for each cell.. It is a lot of coding for the individual cells..

    But you would have 3 conditional formats for each of the 4 cells so a total of 12

    For each cell you would need

    • if it has a date then green
    • if it is the planned date using the Today() function then Red
    • if the planned date is withing today(3) then yellow

Greetings @brownrobe<\/a>,<\/p>

Here is a possible solution for your formula:<\/p>

=IF(NOT(ISBLANK([Recovery Collected Date]@row)), \"Complete\", IF(AND(ISBLANK([Recovery Collected Date]@row), ISBLANK([Anticipated Collection Date]@row)), \"Incomplete\", IF(AND(NOT(ISBLANK([Anticipated Collection Date]@row)), ISBLANK([Recovery Collected Date]@row)), \"Pending\", \"//www.santa-greenland.com/community/discussion/93809/\")))<\/p>

Please confirm I have your column names correct and adjust as needed.<\/p>

I hope this helps, and have a great weekend.<\/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":[]}],"initialPaging":{"nextURL":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/api\/v2\/discussions?page=2&categoryID=322&includeChildCategories=1&type%5B0%5D=Question&excludeHiddenCategories=1&sort=-hot&limit=3&expand%5B0%5D=all&expand%5B1%5D=-body&expand%5B2%5D=insertUser&expand%5B3%5D=lastUser&status=accepted","prevURL":null,"currentPage":1,"total":10000,"limit":3},"title":"Trending in Formulas and Functions ","subtitle":null,"description":null,"noCheckboxes":true,"containerOptions":[],"discussionOptions":[]}">
