If remain 3 days than conditional formatting

Shlomi

Hi,

I want to do the following:

I have a table that we working on with due dates; Start date and End date.

If remains 3 days I want the cell to be in red.

I mean, if End date - Today = 3 days; Than

Cell is red

Hi @Shlomi

Create a new column titled "Today" and make it a Date column. Use this formula and convert it to column formula

=TODAY()

Add a new column titled "Difference" and add below formula to this column

=[End date]@row - Today@row

Now use a conditional formatting to highlight the end dates for which the difference value is less than 3.

I hope this helps.

Hi @Shlomi

I hope you're well and safe!

Try something like this. (Referencing the Difference Column)

Did that work/help?

I hope that helps!

Be safe, and have a fantastic week!
