I have a construction schedule with start and finish dates. I want the check boxes for the at risk column to automatically check off if the project is late starting or late finishing. Can anyone help me craft the appropriate formula for this? Is there a good formula for this? I was thinking it would be an if then formula but I cannot for the life of me get it to work.
Hi,
How do you decide if it's late?
Have a fantastic week!
Best,

There are set start and finish dates. If the project hasn't started by the scheduled date then it is late starting. For example, if the building inspection hasn't started by 8/30/2019 and is due by 9/10/2019 then the inspection is late starting and puts the period at risk. We get these dates from Purchase Agreements.
Thanks!
What indicates that it's started?
The percent complete column. Whoever is in charge of that part of the project updates that column as the project proceeds.
Ok.
Try something like this.
=IF(OR(ISBLANK(Start@row); ISBLANK(Finish@row); [% Complete]@row = 1); 0; IF(AND(Start@row < TODAY(); [% Complete]@row = 0); 1; IF(AND(Finish@row < TODAY(); [% Complete]@row < 1); 1)))
The same version but with the below changes for your and others convenience.
=IF(OR(ISBLANK(Start@row), ISBLANK(Finish@row), [% Complete]@row = 1), 0, IF(AND(Start@row < TODAY(), [% Complete]@row = 0), 1, IF(AND(Finish@row < TODAY(), [% Complete]@row < 1), 1)))
Depending on your country you’ll need to exchange the comma to a period and the semi-colon to a comma.
Did it work?
Hope that helps!
Yes it did! Thank you so much!
Excellent!
Happy to help!

Currently, there is a form linked to a Smartsheet that automatically updates every time the form is submitted. I need to graph data from specific columns, which I want to be in another sheet for visual clarity. From what I understand, I need to pull that data into the sheet I am charting in before I can plot it. What…
Hi all, I have a sheet "Transition Tracker" where my team adds data that can often change throughout the lifecycle of a project. When this data is initially added, I have an automation that copies it to another sheet used by another department. I need to add a formula to the other department's sheet that will update a…
