If formula for recurring date

iriscoetzee

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!

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!
