I can't figured out why #INVALID DATA TYPE auto fill when I haven't pick a date for the start and finish date. If I do have those fill out then the formula works fine but otherwise it just fill the duration cell with that error. I do have the duration column under Text/Number. The only thing that I can think about is that I have multiple reports that generate from this Master Sheet but other than that I don't see where is the mistake.

I have an end date column and want to add 30 days to that for a new column that shows due date. How do I add 30 days to a date automatically?
Why is it so convoluted now! I eventually figured out the changes and ended up with a sheet that Smartsheet completely reorganised the rows and the sheet is now useless to me as it is not in a logical order for me to easily restore to its original layout. This is not an "improvement"! It was far easier to upload data…

However, when I open the dashboard, nothing is displayed, and I am unable to enter Edit Mode or access the widgets/data sources. I have already confirmed the following: I am the owner of the dashboard and have…
