Change to formula
Since the non-time portions are day offsets from some starting time, just
subtract 1 from the date and you will have the day before's date... =IF(AND(B6="",B4<""),NOW()-1,IF(AND(B4<"",B6<""),B6,"")) By the way, if you only need the date, without the time portion, you can use the TODAY() function in place of the NOW() function.

Have you tried replacing NOW() by TODAY() - 1 ?
