Hi Everyone,
I've got a DB that's setup to show a list of our all sub-contractors that we use. The main goal is to show details of each subbie and if they meet the approval criteria or not. This way our contracts team only place orders with approved subbies.
The main field is the 'Approval' field that is simply a YES / NO drop-down. Previously we've had simple conditional formatting on this to turn green if YES (approved) and red for NO (not approved). However, now we're wanting to push that a little further and have it reference another field called 'Date Received' which is the date we've taken the data in from the subcontractors. I presume we would setup three slightly tweaked conditional rules with the colour changes for each one and then parameters for the date field altered for each colour.
The additional formatting we're looking for is listed below:
Green – They have been approved (from the drop-list) AND the date in the 'Date Received' field is less than 12 months old
Amber – They have been approved (from the drop-list) BUT the data is between 12 months old and 24 months old and needs renewing
Red – They have not been approved and/or, the data is more than 24 months old and needs renewing and no orders can be placed
If anyone could offer any help that would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
