Assuming you wish to remind employees 7 days before expiry,
and that the expiry date is in E3.

In E3 Format Conditional Formatting
Condition 1, Formula is: =IF(E3TODAY(),TRUE) (Format black font)
Condition 2, Formula is: =IF(E3TODAY()-7,TRUE) (Format red font)
Copy down using the Format painter, as far as needed.

The above example will give you a 7 day 'window', in which the date
will be red colour. If you wish to have more of a window, adjust the
value in Condition 2.

Please turn off your CAPS lock!
