Adding years to date

I've looked through other discussions on this and tried some of the answers but it's not working for me. I have 3 columns and want to add the number of years (which could vary) to a date).

My formula in the Next Expiration Date Column is this:

=DATE(YEAR([Last Renewal Date]@row + [Auto Renewal Length]@row), MONTH([Last Renewal Date]@row), DAY([Last Renewal Date]@row))

But as you can see, it's returning the same date. Any assistance would be great.

    Hi @Jen S.

    I hope you're well and safe!

    You missed closing the year before adding the renewal length.

    Try something like this.

    =
    DATE(YEAR([Last Renewal Date]@row) + [Auto Renewal Length]@row, 
    MONTH([Last Renewal Date]@row), DAY([Last Renewal Date]@row))
    

    Did that work/help?

    I hope that helps!

    Be safe and have a fantastic week!

    Best,
