IF formula to generate deadline

Hello,

   I am looking to create an IF formula that would generate an upcoming deadline automatically based on two factors.  The first is a customer dropdown selection row and the second being the submission date of the item.

   Such that if a certain customer is selected a due date will be generated 10 days from the submission date.

Comments

  • =IF(AND(Customer1 = "Universal", [Inquiry Type]1 = "Scope Change"), DATE([Requested Date]1 + 10))

     

    This is where I am at so far and it doesn't seem to be correct.

     

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I have also tried this and get an incorrect argument error.

     

    =IF(AND(Customer1 = "Universal", [Inquiry Type]1 = "Scope Change", DATE(DAY([Requested Date]1) + 10)))

     

    Is this not a possible function in smartsheet

    Kristen,

     

    Try this:

     

    =IF(AND(Customer1 = "Universal", [Inquiry Type]1 = "Scope Change"), [Requested Date]1 + 10, "")

     

    1. You did not close the AND() properly.

    2. Days can be added to dates directly.

    3. This formula should be in a Date type column.

    4. The "" makes the date blank if you don't match your criteria. You can skip that without harm.

     

    Hope this helps.

    Craig
