Default Days added to a date

If the date is in cell A1 then:

=DATE(YEAR(A1),MONTH(A1),DAY(A1)+14)

Make sure your date is a real Excel date, not text. You can check with the ISTEXT function.
If it is text, format as date AND re-enter the date (F2, ENTER)
If it is a real Excel date, just add 14 to it and make sure the resulting cell is formatted as date.
Like =A1+14

To learn more about calculating with dates, look he
