Check if today is between set dates yearly

Trond

Hi,

Is there a way to check if today is between two different dates? The day and month will be the same every year.

I need this to check if our cars have the correct tires for the seasons.

Try something like this instead.

=
IF(AND(TODAY() >= DATE(YEAR(TODAY()), 5, 1), TODAY() <= DATE(YEAR(TODAY()), 10, 15)),
 "Yes, Today is between the dates")

Did that work?

Hi @Trond

I hope you're well and safe!

Try something like this.

=
IF(AND(TODAY() >= [Date Start]@row, 
TODAY() <= [Date End]@row), "Yes, Today is between the dates")

Did that work/help?

I hope that helps!

Have a fantastic week & Happy New Year!

Best,

Hi @Andrée Starå

With this function you need to update the start and end date every year right? I wanted it just to check if today was between 1st of may and 15th of oktober without caring about the year.

That work as a helper column, but is there a way to do it as a report filter? To me it seems like it's not possible to filter by function on reports

Unfortunately, no, it's not. You would need to use a so-called helper column.
