Change RYBG Color if the year is Greater than the current year

Hello,

I currently have this:

=IF([Wants refresh?]2 = "Yes", "Green", IF([Wants refresh?]2 = "No", "Gray"))

Which is working fine, but now I want to add that if the column Refresh Year has the year greater than the current year (2019) for it to turn red. I am not sure how to write that.

Any ideas?

Thank you!

You can just toss the analysis for the year on the front of the series of "IF" statements like:

=IF(YEAR([Refresh Year]1) > YEAR(TODAY()), "Red", IF([Wants refresh?]1 = "Yes", "Green", IF([Wants refresh?]1 = "No", "Gray")))

Be sure to change the "[Refresh Year]" variable to whatever you named your column.

Thank you but when I use that I get #INVALID DATA TYPE

And my variable is called "Refresh Year"

Missing column in Report if I use a formula
I'm not able to "view by" a field that I have in my sheets - Quarters (Q1, Q2, Q3, Q4) - in my report. I think it is because I have used a formula to calculate the quarters in my sheets. Does anyone know a way to get a formula based field on the dropdown for view by in my report?
