Formula Help

Hey, nested IF statements are my downfall so I am hoping someone can help me.

I have a column entitled "At Risk" and it's formula is this -

=IF(AND([End Date]5 < TODAY(), NOT([% Comp]5 = "1")), 1, 0)

It puts a flag in if the % Comp column is not marked 100% and the end date is less than today.

However, there are some items on the sheet that haven't started yet and lack a start date and an end date. How do I exclude these items from being flagged "At Risk"?

TIA,

Lisa

This should not flag items with an blank end date.

=IF(ISBLANK([End Date]@row), 0, IF(AND([End Date]@row < TODAY(), NOT([% Comp]@row = "1")), 1, 0))

If you wanted to not flag items without a start date as well you could try this, but I don't know the name of your start date column.... so revise as necessary.

=IF(AND(ISBLANK([End Date]@row), ISBLANK([Start Date]@row)), 0, IF(AND([End Date]@row < TODAY(), NOT([% Comp]@row = "1")), 1, 0))

=IF(ISBLANK([Start Date Column Name]@row), 0, IF(AND([End Date]5 < TODAY(), NOT([% Comp]5 = "1")), 1, 0))

What this will do is look at the start date column. If it is blank, it will not flag. If there is a date in the start date column, it will run your original formula.
