Change next row status when previous row status is complete
I have multisteps to complete an order, Since start of many steps is dependant on the completion of previous steps, Can I program that if a previous steps say row 1 and 3 are complete (status Green), next row status changes to Yellow. I did this by giving code to each row and then with IF statement (If Code of row 1 and 3 are Green, then Code current row is Yellow, but I would also like that it permits to change the calculated status of the current row manually. Is it possible

Ga,
You can't mix formulas and manual action in the same cell.
Once that manual action is taken, the formula is gone.
You'll need to build your sheet and formula to account for why something is a certain color (dates, percentages, other statuses) and do that for each color.
This, however, takes some of the subjective nature out of the symbol.
It is red because we have an urgent issue or a delay that will impact the schedule, for example. Not because someone is worried.
Hope this helps.
Craig
