Hi. I'm trying to count tasks due in the next 7 days that aren't completed, but it's still counting past the 7 days. Any help is appreciated!


Heres the formula I tried using:

=COUNTIFS(Status:Status, <>"Complete", [End Date]:[End Date], AND(@cell >= TODAY(+7)))

    Your formula is saying to count for dates that are greater than today's date plus 7. You need to switch it to less than or equal to, and include another criteria to say that it is greater than or equal to today's date (so it doesn't pull tasks in the past).
