Hello experts,
So i am stuck here.

B = has a past date "01/10/21"
F = has a shipment date (if shipped)
G = has either "Shipped" "Processing" or "Canceled"
H = is counting days =TODAY()-$B2

what I want either
if F has a date
H should stop counting days further and show counted days (the difference between B date and F Date)

OR
if G is either "Shipped" or "Cancelled"
H should stop counting days further and show counted days till G value is shipped or canceled.


i also attached my sheets picture

Excel Facts

What does custom number format of ;;; mean?
Three semi-colons will hide the value in the cell. Although most people use white font instead.
Hi! Try this
=IF(F2="",TODAY()-B2,"")

or this!
=IF(F2="",TODAY()-B2,F2-B2)

Yes this solves the problem, with new problems accruing,
if F2 and B2 both are empty it starts showing 44224 Days. It should keep it black until B2 is populated.
