Color Coding Formula

Carlos Yanes

Hey all,

Need some help with putting together a formula that will display color coding in a symbol column based on conditions being met in two other columns.

Under status there are the following options - Completed, In Progress, Not Started, On Hold. I'm trying to get the color coding to function as follows -

If Completed = color code health column as Green (will be using symbol colors)

If In Progress and the Estimated Launch Date is in the future from today's date then Green

If In Progress and the Estimated Launch Data is in the past then it should be Red

If On Hold then Yellow

If Not Started then Gray

L_123

You could do this with conditional formatting if you want without having to have the extra column or develop a formula

=IF(OR(Status@row = "Completed", AND(Status@row = "In Progress", [Estimated Launch Date]@row > TODAY())), "Green", IF(AND(Status@row = "In Progress", [Estimated Launch Date]@row < TODAY()), "Red", IF(Status@row = "On Hold", "Yellow", IF(Status@row = "Not Started", "Grey"))))
