Hello!
I've got a question for you Excel experts out there. I'm trying to make a form to keep track of expiry dates. I want to be able to put in a date and have the form return "VALID" if today is more than two months before the expiry date, "PENDING" if today is less than two months before the expiry date, and "EXPIRED" if today has passed the expiry date. I've been using the following function for this: =IF(E6$D$4;"VALID";IF(E6$D$4-2;"PENDING";IF(E6<$D$4;"EXPIRED"))) (D4 contains the "TODAY()" function, and E6 is the date for the item that I've put in manually plus the number of months until expiry for the given item.) This works for "VALID" and "EXPIRED", but not for "PENDING". However, until earlier today it worked perfectly, but when I put up the exact same formula after rearranging some cells, I can't get it to give the output "PENDING". It would be much appreciated if somebody could help me figure out what is wrong. Thanks in advance! |
