Conditional Formatting Based on Other Formulas

=AND(date-order_by<=0, current<0)

date: pulls the date above any selected cell

order_by: workday(today(), lead time)

current: the cell that it on

if the and statement is true then it fills red. 

 

I'm trying to find a way to mark the first column if the given row has a red highlight.

    Thanks. The definition of date_row should be

    =Sheet1!$D$1:$AW$1

    instead of

    =Sheet1!$D$1:$AW$2

    I have sent the file with this modification back by PM.

    Try a rule with formula

     

    =COUNTIFS(date_row,"<="&WORKDAY(TODAY(),lead time),data_row,"<0")

     

    where date_row is the row with dates at the top (absolute reference), and data_row is the first row with numbers (relative reference).

      I can get the formula to work if I use only one criteria and delete the other. When I put them together I get #VALUE. Thank you for the help.

        Could you attach a small sample workbook demonstrating the problem (without sensitive data), or if that is not possible, make it available through OneDrive, Google Drive, Dropbox or similar?
