I'm trying to figure out how to enter credit card expiry dates as MM/YY (without entering a day number), and then ideally setting up notifications that alert me when we're within 30 days of that month.
Any suggestions?
By 30 days, you mean 30 days from first of that month?
Assumption: Your column name is [Exp Date]
Create a [Reminder Date] column (Date type)
=IFERROR(DATE(VALUE(RIGHT([Task Name]@row, 2)), VALUE(LEFT([Task Name]@row, 2)), 1), "missing or malformed exp date") - 30
This will return the date you are looking for and
"missing or malformed exp date"
if the expiration date is not entered, is not MM/YY (no leading zeros expected), or if MM is not 1-12.
Build your Alert off that date.
I hope this helps.

Thanks, Craig
Glad it helped.
Well, there is one odd wrinkle... the formula is resulting in dates for 1918, not 2018 (check out the screenshot)!
The two columns I have are:
CC Expiry (text/number) - I enter this as four digits to represent MMYY
CC Reminder Date (date) - the formula here is =IF([CC Expiry]1 <> "", (IFERROR(DATE(VALUE(RIGHT([CC Expiry]@row, 2)), VALUE(LEFT([CC Expiry]@row, 2)), 1), "missing") - 1))
Thoughts?
Sorry about that. Try this
=IF([CC Expiry]@row<> "", (IFERROR(DATE(VALUE("20"+RIGHT([CC Expiry]@row, 2)), VALUE(LEFT([CC Expiry]@row, 2)), 1), "missing") - 1))
The "20"+... will force the date to be in this century.
Success, thanks
How can I delete old sheets I no longer use from my account?
I'm trying to display a task progress chart showing "complete", "late", and "not complete" in my dashboard and for some reason the chart will display as a column chart but it won't display as a donut chart even though I'm referencing the same report. I'd prefer to display as a donut chart as I think it looks better and is…
Hello, I am trying to create a chart widget in my dashboard, but I keep getting "Selected data cannot be charted. Please select a new range." error. The report I am using is already summarized in numeric value. What is funny is I have report that I created a chart widget in another dashboard, and when I use that same…
