Hi All,

This formula is driving me insane. Could anyone help me with the below please? I'm trying to insert a new RAG/SLA status so I don't have to manually change.

RAG =
Before today = "Red"
Is today = "Amber"
Tomorrow = "Yellow"
In future = "White"

The dates are determined by 3x date columns. Attend Target, Attend Actual and Fix Target.
If 'Fix Target' is before today then "Red", If blank then check if there is a date in 'Attend Target' or 'Attend Actual' If all blank then "White". Else use the closest date.

I hope this makes sense, I've added a picture example of the statuses and dates, Any help would be greatly appreciated.

TIA.


P.S I managed to get this far, but the only status which seems to be correct is "Red" -

=IF(OR(AU5017<TODAY(), AS5017<TODAY()), "Red", IF(OR(ISBLANK(AU5017), ISBLANK(AS5017)), IF(AU5017<TODAY(), "Red", IF(AS5017<TODAY(), "Red")), IF(OR(AU5017=TODAY(), AS5017=TODAY()), "Amber", IF(OR(AU5017=TODAY()+1, AS5017=TODAY()+1), "Yellow", "White"))))

What does "closest date" mean? The nearest to today? If so, do you have future dates in there?

Hi @RoryA by closest date I mean closest to today yes, sorry for the confusion. Dates in the future would be classed as "White" status. Thanks.

Just to confirm, Row 9 on your example should be "red" as there is no Attend Actual Date, only target dates and the earliest one (Attend Actual Target date) is in the past. Hope this makes sense? It's so hard to explain, its driving me mad not being able to figure it out.

Okay, your second image has different dates, so I am not looking at it. I used the original dates again from the first post. Column S below has the new formula results, Column T is manual entry to make sure I understood the rules. See if this is what you want:

Hi ya, Thank you for the reply! But no sorry. This is still coming out wrong. :( Please see below.

Your column in the one on the right. The correct one is the one on the left.

Can you explain why the row with Fix Target as 17 Dec 23 and Attend Target of 17 Nov 23 should be white not red? Surely Fix target is the closest date to today, and that is in the future.

This one is Red because there is no 'actual attend date' stamp. So the 'attend target' was 17th November and this hasn't been met. that's why its Red :) Hope this makes sense? Really appreciate the help!
