Formula

Hi
I need to return a status that references today between date ranges:
I have four types of statuses that should be shown:
- Planning,
- Execution,
- Monitoring,
- Closing.
Let have the following conditions:
If Today is between Start Date 1 and Finish Date 1 - Planning should be reflected,
If Today is between Start Date 2 and Finish Date 2 - Execution should be reflected,
If Today is between Start Date 3 and Finish Date 3 - Monitoring should be reflected,
If Today is between Start Date 4 and Finish Date 4 - Closing should be reflected,
The formula will be in the top row of the sheet and will have to reference several rows to determine the status.
Pls help on a formula.

Can you provide a screenshot of the sheet with sensitive/confidential data removed, blocked, and/or replaced with "dummy data" as needed as well as more detail such as which rows exactly are being referenced?

Hmm... Are you trying to pull the [Task Name] that is labeled as "In Progress"?
=INDEX(CHILDREN([Task Name]@row), MATCH("In Progress", CHILDREN(Status@row), 0))
That is much more simple than trying to use both date columns in a nested IF statement and keeps things generic enough to allow for child rows to be added/deleted within each of the phases.
