  • Is it possible to count the dates in one column of four / five specific columns, which are past their current date i.e.<Today? @row.

    I would be grateful for any guidance in this matter.

    @Safety Steve Are you able to provide more details? Are you wanting to look through a specific column, or are you wanting to evaluate all 5 columns? Would the count be in the same sheet or a separate sheet? Are all of the columns next to each other?

  • Above is an attachment of a contractor compliance register.

    I am trying to calculate number of expired document dates at row for that entity.

    Currently I manually complete this review monthly on "Compliance Documents Missing"

    I should be able to work a formula out for "Compliance Documents Listed on system"

    Hoping that this can be formulated to work.

    I appreciate your help in advance.

  • Please Note other aspects are counted hence total docs are different than shown in attachment.

    From the looks of things, you are going to need a series of IF/AND combos added together


    =IF(AND(ISDATE([1st Date Column]@row), [1st Date Column]@row< TODAY()), 1, 0) + IF(AND(ISDATE([2nd Date Column]@row), [2nd Date Column]@row< TODAY()), 1, 0) + IF(AND(ISDATE([3rd Date Column]@row), [3rd Date Column]@row< TODAY()), 1, 0)
