Workflow failed due to linked cells. Need help writing formula for Status changes.
I have the following Smartsheet and am trying to automate Status changes based on start and end dates, but from what I've read, I can't do that since my Start Date values are linked cells.
Can someone help me write a formula for the Status column to populate either: Not Started, In Progress, Complete, Overdue based on the following logic?
Thank you!

Give this a try:
=IF([Approved?]@row = 1, "Complete", IF([End Date]@row< TODAY(), "Overdue", IF([Start Date]@row> TODAY(), "Not Started", "In Progress")))
