Comparing Dates

Hi,

I have a Planned Date and Actual Date and Final Date column. I need formula where Final Date column, has Actual Date, but when Actual Date is blank Final Date should have Planned Date.

Planned Date | Actual Date |

Any help is much appreciated!

Thank you!

Hi @dsmartsheetuser

Try this formula

=IF(ISBLANK([Actual Date]@row), [Planned Date]@row, [Actual Date]@row)

I hope this works.

Hello @dsmartsheetuser

You will need to use a =IF(ISBLANK) formula in this case where if Actual Date is blank then the formula returns Planned Date. Try and let me know if this works.

Hope this helps,

Cheers!

Hi @dmartsheetuser

I hope you're well and safe!

To add to Amit's excellent advice/answer.

Here's another version of the formula. (I prefer this one because it's shorter)

=IF([Actual Date]@row = "", [Planned Date]@row, [Actual Date]@row)

I hope that helps!

Be safe, and have a fantastic week!

Best,
