How do I write formula to capture date field changed to approved

Ron Anderson

I am trying to populate a date column with the date that another column is approved. I am befuddled. My formula returns today's date but it changes every day.

=IF([BIC Approved]@row = "approved", TODAY())

Hi Ron,

Please take a look at the method I developed in the post below.

Would that work?

I hope that helps!

Be safe and have a fantastic week!
