Help w/ Status Formula
Hello,
I have the below status formula created but when I do not have a start/end date populated, the status is populating as "complete". I want it to be blank until all 4 dates are entered. Any suggestions?
Formula: =IF([Baseline Start Date]@row <> "", IF(AND([Start Date]@row <= TODAY(), [End Date]@row > TODAY()), "In Progress", IF([Start Date]@row > TODAY(), "Not Started", IF([End Date]@row < TODAY(), "Complete"))))
Example:

I hope you're well and safe!
Try starting the formula with something like this.
=IF(COUNTIF([Baseline Start Date]@row:[End Date]@row, <>"") = 4
Did that work/help?
I hope that helps!
Be safe and have a fantastic week!

Would something like this help?
=IF(AND([Baseline Start Datee]@row = "", [Baseline End Date]@row "", [Start Date]@row = "", [End Date]@row = ""), "", IF([Baseline Start Date]@row <> "", IF(AND([Start Date]@row <= TODAY(), [End Date]@row > TODAY()), "In Progress", IF([Start Date]@row > TODAY(), "Not Started", IF([End Date]@row < TODAY(), "Complete"))))

Thank you @Andrée Starå - that worked!
Here was the final formula: =IF(COUNTIF([Baseline Start Date]@row:[End Date]@row, <>"") = 4, IF(AND([Start Date]@row <= TODAY(), [End Date]@row >= TODAY()), "In Progress", IF([Start Date]@row > TODAY(), "Not Started", IF([End Date]@row < TODAY(), "Complete"))))
