I am getting #INVALID DATA TYPE with the formula in the cell.

I am getting #INVALID DATA TYPE with the formula in the cell. This date I have set up to set the due date 5 business days after the received Date. If I have a date, then it populates correctly, but no date and it shows invalid. I thought it would show blank until values are entered. Did I do something wrong?

=WORKDAY([Received Date]@row , 5)

You might want to use IFERROR to catch the error and return a value you wanted as placeholder instead the ERROR message.

=IFERROR(WORKDAY([Received Date]@row , 5), "")
