Formula for calculating Current Date/Status and Expected end date
I am trying to get my Status Column to be the following colours below based on the criteria.
Grey = Status is “Not Started”
Yellow = Status = “In Progress” and current date is less than expected finish date
Red = Status = “In Progress” and current date is greater than expected finish date
Green = Status = “Completed
Any ideas of what this formula would look like, I have been trying to get this to work but it is not picking up the expected finish date.
For the current date I am using the "today" formula so it is consistantly updated.
Any assistance would be appreciated.
Thank you

Try something like this
=IF(status="Not Started", "Grey", IF(AND(status="In Progress", Current Date<Expected Date),"Yellow", IF(AND(status="In Progress", Current Date>Expected Date),"Red", IF(status="Completed", "Green")))
Thanks & Regards

Thanks Khasim that formula worked but only for the 'Not Started' I am thinking I might need to add the OR or And function for it to work for the other conditions.
This is a great start for me to get it working.
thank you
