I'm trying to figure out how to enter credit card expiry dates as MM/YY (without entering a day number), and then ideally setting up notifications that alert me when we're within 30 days of that month.
Any suggestions?
By 30 days, you mean 30 days from first of that month?
Assumption: Your column name is [Exp Date]
Create a [Reminder Date] column (Date type)
=IFERROR(DATE(VALUE(RIGHT([Task Name]@row, 2)), VALUE(LEFT([Task Name]@row, 2)), 1), "missing or malformed exp date") - 30
This will return the date you are looking for and
"missing or malformed exp date"
if the expiration date is not entered, is not MM/YY (no leading zeros expected), or if MM is not 1-12.
Build your Alert off that date.
I hope this helps.

Thanks, Craig
Glad it helped.
Well, there is one odd wrinkle... the formula is resulting in dates for 1918, not 2018 (check out the screenshot)!
The two columns I have are:
CC Expiry (text/number) - I enter this as four digits to represent MMYY
CC Reminder Date (date) - the formula here is =IF([CC Expiry]1 <> "", (IFERROR(DATE(VALUE(RIGHT([CC Expiry]@row, 2)), VALUE(LEFT([CC Expiry]@row, 2)), 1), "missing") - 1))
Thoughts?
Sorry about that. Try this
=IF([CC Expiry]@row<> "", (IFERROR(DATE(VALUE("20"+RIGHT([CC Expiry]@row, 2)), VALUE(LEFT([CC Expiry]@row, 2)), 1), "missing") - 1))
The "20"+... will force the date to be in this century.
Success, thanks

I am currently setting up an automation for people to get notified through their email, when they are prompted. But is there a way that they can reply in the email of a comment that will then go to the specific sheet. This way they do not have access to the sheet, but can just comment through email with updates?
I am extremely frustrated and disappointed with my current Smartsheet experience. I have paid for a Pro subscription, I am the owner and administrator of my account and sheets, and I have confirmed I am logged into the correct account. Despite this, Smartsheet is not recognizing my Pro subscription, and I am unable to…
