Hi everyone!
I would like to automatically update a date column based on a text column: If vendor name is "x", column "Billing Due" is the 15th of the month.
Does anyone know if this is possible?
Thank you,
Iris
Hi,
Try something like this.
=IF([Vendor Name]@row = "x"; DATE(YEAR(TODAY()); MONTH(TODAY()); 15))
The same version but with the below changes for your and others convenience.
=IF([Vendor Name]@row = "x", DATE(YEAR(TODAY()), MONTH(TODAY()), 15))
Depending on your country you’ll need to exchange the comma to a period and the semi-colon to a comma.
Did it work?
Hope that helps!
Have a fantastic day!
Best,

Hej Andree!
This defintely gets me closer to what I need. Could you please provide the formula to add multiple options for various vendors? I can change 15 to something else, but my normal +IF for other vendor options is not working right.
Also, is it possible to have the next relevant date? Right now it chooses Sept 15, already pass, instead of upcoming Oct 15.
Thank you so much for your help!!!
You would need nested IF statements to determine the proper 15th to display.
As far as having multiple variations for different vendors... How many different variations would you have and what would they be?
Did you get it working or do you still need help?
Have a fantastic week!

Anyway we can make this view only for security purposes? We would like to prevent users from sending responses to other users by accident.
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?
Is there a way to revert to the old dashboard look and feel. The new dashboards do not look good at all. There is no way of knowing if there are additional items in the widgets until you scroll over one to learn there is more to it since the vertical bar doesn't show. We have hundreds of dashboards and they will all need…
