How to use a populate a column in a smartsheet by using a formula.
If column b is required to be exactly 6 months after column a.
Column a was specified in a form.
Is there a way to insert the following formula into the column or worksheet:
=IFERROR(DATE(YEAR([Last Calibrated]@row), (MONTH([Last Calibrated]@row) + [Calibration Cycle]@row), DAY([Last Calibrated]@row)), DATE(YEAR([Last Calibrated]@row) + 1, (MONTH([Last Calibrated]@row) - [Calibration Cycle]@row), DAY([Last Calibrated]@row)))
Where [Calibration Cycle]@row = 6
I will need to keep the calibration cycle in the formula as it will need to be used for 3,12,24 months etc etc

Hi @Paul Hansen
I hope you're well and safe!
Sometimes when the formula is more complex, I add a simple formula first and make it a column formula, and then I edit and replace it with the actual one.
Try something like this.
=Cycle@row
Did that work/help?
I hope that helps!
Be safe and have a fantastic week!
