IF Formula to assign a symbol depending on where a date is in relation to today's date.
Options
Hi, I'm looking for a formula to indicate where a specific date in one column is in relation to today's date. I have the column where this formula will be input setup as a symbol column to return a color (Red, Yellow, or Green) to indicate the relation between today's date and the date in another column.
If the date is in the past or in the next 9 months, "red". If the date is in the next 9-15 months, "yelllow", else "green".
Thank you!

Update, I have figured this out! Here's the formula I used:
=IF([Expiration]@row < TODAY(), "Red", IF([Expiration]@row - 270 <= TODAY(), "Red", IF([Expiration]@row - 450 <= TODAY(), "Yellow", "Green")))
Happy for feedback if there is a better way, but this is working!
