Excel should have a QUARTER formula for DATE calculations
Easy enough:
=CEILING(MONTH(J2)/3,1)
For robustness:
=IF(ISNUMBER(J2),CEILING(MONTH(D2)/3,1),"")

Excel should have a built in QUARTER function which allows users to
calculate
the QUARTER in which a transaction occurs based on the date of the
transaction.
Ex: =QUARTER(J2) where cell J2 holds a date.
You have it for MONTH, DAY, and YEAR why not for QUARTER for those of us
in
the financial world?
