Formula to add X years onto a date?

Options

Hi, I have a formula that adds 1, 2 or 3 years onto a date but the return date is going to the 1st of the month. Can someone please advise how to fix this so the date is exactly 1, 2 or 3 years later?

Formula I have used in Next Review Date column

=DATE(YEAR([Last Reviewed Date]@row) + [Review Frequency]@row, MONTH([Last Reviewed Date]@row, DAY([Last Reviewed Date]@row)))

    Hi @Kristina Delis,

    You're missing a bracket in your formula (bolded):

    =DATE(YEAR([Last Reviewed Date]@row) + [Review Frequency]@row, MONTH([Last Reviewed Date]@row), DAY([Last Reviewed Date]@row))

    This is causing your results to come back with the first in the day as the dates are in January.

    Hope this helps, but if you still have any problems/questions then let us know! 🙂
