Multi-Year Formula

Beachguy81

Hello All,

I am new to formulas on SS and need your help writing the following formula.

In the first (non-primary) column is a date field. (E.g. 3/9/2022)

In the second column I need the first col date + 3 years to go all the way down my spreadsheet

I am sure this is simple, but I need your help!

Hi @Beachguy81

I hope you're well and safe!

Try something like this.

=DATE(YEAR([Date Column]@row) + 3, MONTH([Date Column]@row), DAY([Date Column]@row))

Did that work/help?

I hope that helps!

Be safe and have a fantastic week!

Best,

Andrée Starå | Workflow Consultant / CEO @ WORK BOLD

It came back as #unparceable? I place this formula in the 1st col. correct?

Maybe I am not explaining it properly. first col is todays date 3/9/2022 I want the second col. to auto populate with 3/9/2025.

You probably need to change my Column Name.

Can you describe your process in more detail and maybe share the sheet(s)/copies of the sheet(s) or some screenshots? (Delete/replace any confidential/sensitive information before sharing) That would make it easier to help. (share too, andree@workbold.com)
