Hi,
I need help with finding a way to automate the RYG balls so that if no dates are input, it's white. If the first date is input, it's red. If the second date is input, its yellow. And if the final date is input, it's green.
Thank you !
Try something like this.
=IF(AND(ISBLANK([Welcome Email]@row); ISBLANK(Signed@row); ISBLANK(Cosigned@row)); ""; IF(ISDATE(Cosigned@row); "Green"; IF(ISDATE(Signed@row); "Yellow"; IF(ISDATE([Welcome Email]@row); "Red"))))
The same version but with the below changes for your and others convenience.
=IF(AND(ISBLANK([Welcome Email]@row), ISBLANK(Signed@row), ISBLANK(Cosigned@row)), "", IF(ISDATE(Cosigned@row), "Green", IF(ISDATE(Signed@row), "Yellow", IF(ISDATE([Welcome Email]@row), "Red"))))
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!
Have a fantastic day!

Wow! It works perfectly!
Many thanks
Excellent!
Happy to help!
I'm sorry to have another question, perhaps you can advise me why when I changed the order and updated the form's names, the ball doesn't change to green when the welcome email date is present?
You can see in the photo, the blank, gray and yellow work, but not green.
=IF(AND(ISBLANK([Welcome Email]@row), ISBLANK([TPSA Signed]@row), ISBLANK([Counter Signed]@row)), "", IF(ISDATE([Counter Signed]@row), "Yellow", IF(ISDATE([TPSA Signed]@row), "Gray", IF(ISDATE([Welcome Email]@row), "Green"))))
I changed it to RGYG
Thank you
It is the order in which you have your conditions. Once it comes across it's first true value, it stops evaluating. So if yellow and green are both true, but yellow comes first, it will trigger a yellow response, but if green comes first in your formula, it will trigger a green response. Try working your formula in order of priority...
=IF(ISDATE([Welcome Email]@row), "Green", IF(ISDATE([Counter Signed]@row), "Yellow", IF(ISDATE([TPSA Signed]@row), "Gray", "")))
I saw that Paul answered already!
Let me know if I can help with anything else!

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.
