Join/Collect Function if status of row within hierarchy is "Next Up"

Options

Using the [Next Up] Column in row1 (the parent row) I'm trying to join the [Onboarding Effort Name] and [Due Date] text of whatever row has the "Next Up" status. The task labeled as "Next Up" will continue to change, the hope being that the "Next Up" row will auto update with the task name and due date of whichever row is labeled "Next Up". Ideally, in the screenshot below, [Next Up]1 would read "FEBS Go/No Go due by 7/29/21". Is there a formula that makes this possible?

    Hi @Taylor Riley

    Hope you are fine, please try the following formula:

    =IFERROR(JOIN(COLLECT([Onboarding Effort Name]:[Onboarding Effort Name], Status:Status, 
    "Next Up"), CHAR(10)) + " Due By " + JOIN(COLLECT([Due Date]:[Due Date], Status:Status, 
    "Next Up")), "")
    

    the following screenshot shows the result:
