Finding the annual Quarter of a corresponding date

Eddie Abasta

Since SmartSheet doesn't seem to have a roundup function, can anyone help me to calculate the annual quarter from a coresponding date?

in excel i would use something like:

=roundup(month(cell where my date is)/3,0)

=(INT((MONTH(DATEREF) + 2) / 3))

Craig,

Much appreciated!

Hi Craig,

Just wondering if you have any suggestion to how I can return a value such as Q3-2018; in excel I would use a formula such as this:

="Q"&ROUNDUP(MONTH(A1)/3,0)&"-"&YEAR(A1)

Thanks,

Jessica

="Q" + (INT((MONTH(DATEREF) + 2) / 3)) + "-" + YEAR(DATEREF)

should do it.

This throws an error if DATEREF is blank, so

=IFERROR("Q" + (INT((MONTH(DATEREF) + 2) / 3)) + "-" + YEAR(DATEREF),"")

will return blank in that case.

Craig,

Thanks for this!

Do you know if it would be possible to return a value such as "JFM-18"?

JFM to stand for Jan Feb March, AMJ=Apr May June, etc, rather than saying Q1, Q2.

Thanks,

Jessica

You'll need to change this portion

(INT((MONTH([Column2]1) + 2) / 3))

of the formula either a NestedIF or a LOOKUP functionality.

If this were a requirement for a customer, I would put the whole thing in a X-Sheet reference and the formula on another sheet.

Hey Craig!

I've tried a few of your many solutions for quarter formulas, but none of them seem to work on my smartsheets. Could there be something else I can do?

Ultimately, I am looking for a formula that will translate a date from a different column to a quarter number.

Thanks!

There is no way of knowing if there are additional items in the widgets until you scroll over one to learn there is more to it since the vertical bar doesn't show.

why does it not show the bars in timeline view like most gantt charts do?
When i try to send or print the timeline view instead of showing the progression bars like they do on the screen it only send the data entered and not a graph type view to print. Is there a way to do this. I am using a mac platform if that helps.
