Formula to Link PTO Tracker to Project Schedule

Hello,

I have created a PTO tracker to log my project team's PTO during the project lifecycle. The PTO tracker that I created is a separate sheet from my project schedule.

Is there a way that I can create some conditional formatting (maybe via a checkbox helper column) to link these two sheets and indicate where there is overlap between a teammate's PTO and a task that they are assigned to?

For example: Person A is scheduled to take PTO from August 7 until August 11, but they have a task assigned to them from August 9 until August 16. Is there a way to write a formula to check a checkbox indicating that there is overlap between those two date ranges? I would like to be able to quickly see if there is a PTO conflict that would take them away from their assigned task - even if just for one day.


Thank you!
