How to combine IF, TODAY, OR, ISBLANK functions?
Hello,
I am having trouble putting together a formula for showing when my employees have been certified or not. Here is the formula I am using
=IF((ISBLANK([Completion Date ]@row), "🔴 Not Certified"), IF((TODAY() < [SH Next Training Due Date]@row, "🟢 Certified", "🔴 Expired")))
When an employee completes their training I enter the Completion Date, that date is also used for another formula to calculate when the certification expires SH Next Training Due Date (in 2 years from completion date).
What I want is when I enter the Completion Date, which in turn tells me when the Next Training Due Date is, that as long as it is not past the next training due date/expiration date it returns "🟢 Certified". When the Next Training Due Date is today or in the past, have the formula return "🔴 Expired". But when the Completion Date cell is blank, I want it to return as "🔴 Not Certified".
I dont know which formulas to use in order to achieve those results. I have already tried multiple ways. Currently i am getting an error message that says "the column formula syntax is not quite right"
Any help would be very appreciated thank you!

Give this a try
=IF(ISBLANK([Completion Date]@row), "🔴 Not Certified", IF(TODAY() < [SH Next Training Due Date]@row, "🟢 Certified", "🔴 Expired"))
