Hi all,
I have a column titled "Interview Date" where the date of an interview is inputted. I also have a column titled "Status" with two options - Open and Closed.
I am trying to make a formula that will set the status column to "Closed" if the interview date is in the past. I am trying the following but cant get it to work:
=IF([Interview Date]@row , < Today(), “Closed”, “”)
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Be sure your [Interview Date]@row is formatted as a Date column and remove the ",". The logical expression should be [Interview Date]@row < TODAY().
Value if true "Closed"
Value if False "Open"
=IF([Interview Date]@row < TODAY(), "Closed", "Open")

That was an issue, thanks for your help!
Final formula was;
=IF([Interview Date]@row < TODAY(), "Closed", "Open")
If I wanted to change it so the action happens when the interview date is seven days in the past how would change that formula?

Hi Summer, that worked perfectly. Thanks for your help!

=IF([Interview Date]@row < TODAY(), "Closed", "Open")
If I wanted to change it so the action happens when the interview date is seven days in the past how would I need to change that formula?

@Daniel_HR1 This formula will change the status to closed when the interview date is 7 days in the past
=IF([Interview Date]@row < (TODAY() -7), "Closed", "Open")
