I am trying to write a date range formula with an IF AND statement (I think).
I need to check a box if [Previous date] is in a specific date range.
It should look something like this:
=IF(AND([Previous date]@row <= DATE(2019, 1, 31), [Previous date]@row >= DATE(2019, 1, 1)), 1, 0)
This one will flag all dates in January 2019. You'll need to adjust the dates manually. The 1 and 0 at the end of the formula turn the checkbox on and off.
When you only have two results (checked or unchecked), you really only need to specify what changes the default of unchecked to checked. You could leave the 0 off of the end of the formula and it will still work the same way. (Just FYI).
.
A few additional things to keep in mind that may or may not make things a little easier for you...
To help with having to manually adjust dates within a formula (if you're anything like me you stand a good chance of a typo or fat fingering something haha), you could reference 3 (or 6) different cells depending on the type of breakdown you are looking for. Something along the lines of (column headers are bold)...
Helper Start End
Year
Month
Day
You could then use (assuming the Year row is row 1)
=DATE(Start$1, Start$2, Start$3)
This gives you the ability to edit your dates without having to edit your formula. If you are looking for weekly, monthly or yearly counts you could use
=IF(WEEKNUMBER([Previous Date]@row) = *********, 1)
In the section of ********* you have a few options. You could enter a specific number, WEEKNUMBER(a cell reference that would contain a number), or WEEKNUMBER(a date using the DATE function which could also be manual entry or cell references).
=IF(MONTH([Previous Date]@row) = ************, 1)
=IF(YEAR([Previous Date]@row) = ***********, 1)
=IF(AND(YEAR([Previous Date]@row) = **********, MONTH([Previous Date]@row) = **********), 1)
I have a workspace that I created with two subfolders. A user needs to have access to only one of them but when I have that folder selected, I can only share the entire workspace with them. Is there a secret way that I can share the parent folder and ensure that any new files created will be shared with the same people? I…
I have a Pro plan but I cannot create ANY reports. The system does not allow me to choose a folder, and consequently a sheet to create a row report and suggests an upgrade to Business or Enterprise. I'm quite new to Smartsheet and feel a bit disappointed with this limitation, or maybe I'm just doing something wrong. Alberto
I have multiple items that each have their own statuses and that roll up to "workstreams" or swimlanes. On the dashboard, I would like to show the progress of the items by swimlane without breaking it out into separate widgets for each. This would ideally be a stacked bar where each bar represented the Items and was broken…
