How to remove flags with no link date available
Hello
I have a flag column with this formula:
=IF([Start of NESV Validation]@row < TODAY(-30), 1)
The formula works fine when the "Start of NESV Validation" column has a date available. But when there's no date present, a red flag still shows.
How can I leave the flag space blank if no date is available?
If have also tried this formula as well:
=IFERROR(IF([Start of NESV Validation]@row < TODAY(-30), 1), "")
The flag still shows up.
Thanks

Try something like this instead and either color the dot in the same color as the background or add a Conditional Formatting rule doing the same.
=IF([Start of NESV Validation]@row = "", ".", IFERROR(IF([Start of NESV Validation]@row < TODAY(-30), 1), ""))
Did that work/help?

Hi @Cristian
I hope you're well and safe!
Try something like this.
=IF([Start of NESV Validation]@row <> "", IFERROR(IF([Start of NESV Validation]@row < TODAY(-30), 1), ""))
Did that work/help?
I hope that helps!
Be safe, and have a fantastic week!

The formula goes through but the empty flag still shows up.
