Imbedded If Statements

I'm trying to use a formula (below) that will:

1)If a deviation was Approved, it is past its End Date...if Past End Date return "Expired", if not return "Active"

2)If it was never Approved, return "Rejected"......no need to evaluate if it is past its End Date.

My formula is returning Rejected only.

=IF([Approval Status]@row = "Approved", IF(TODAY() > [End Date]@row, "Expired", "Active"), "Rejected")

    It is because the formula is using "Approved" based on your original post, but the sheet is using "Approve" (without the "d" on the end). Try mine with "Approve" instead of "Approved".
