I have a due date and want to have the "Risk" green if the due date is more than 15 days out and the Status is not "Complete". How do I do this?
Within the Conditional Formatting dialog box (button in the middle of your toolbar, looks like a grid with some colour to the squares) you can click on the drop down arrow on the left hand side and select the AND condition to add a second condition.
I have added a screen shot to show you what I mean.
Hope this helps.

If you are talking about the RYGB symbol column... you will want to use a formula in the symbol column,
=IF([Due Date]@row - Today() > 15, "Green", IF([Due Date]@row < Today(), "Red", "Yellow")
The formula will count everything greater than 15 as Green, Due dates in the past as REd and everything inbetween as Yellow.
Hi
Is it possible to compare 2 date columns in IF statement and do colouring based on that?
I would like to have separate delivery date for each row.

Hi Areg,
@Areg Vrtanesyan
Yes, it is. We’d use a so-called helper column to make it work. In my example I use a checkbox helper column. You can then use that in the conditional formatting.
Try something like this.
=IF(AND(ISDATE(DateA@row); ISDATE(DateB@row)); IF(NOT(DateA@row = DateB@row); 1; ""))
The same version but with the below changes for your and others convenience.
=IF(AND(ISDATE(DateA@row), ISDATE(DateB@row)), IF(NOT(DateA@row = DateB@row), 1, ""))
Depending on your country you’ll need to exchange the comma to a period and the semi-colon to a comma.
Did that work?
I hope that helps!
Have a fantastic week!

@Areg Vrtanesyan It is very possible. You would need to put the IF statement in it's own column, then set up the Conditional Formatting to run based on this third column.
I am currently setting up an automation for people to get notified through their email, when they are prompted. But is there a way that they can reply in the email of a comment that will then go to the specific sheet. This way they do not have access to the sheet, but can just comment through email with updates?
Is there a way to revert to the old dashboard look and feel. The new dashboards do not look good at all. 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. We have hundreds of dashboards and they will all need…
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.
