    Hi Muhammad_Zohaib 

     

    sorry for not being Leila... 😉🙂🙂

    You could use the following formula to get an alert in column E:

    =IF(D2-NOW()<=15;"Expiry alert";"")

     

    Or alternatively this one to get also the number of days left:

    =IF(D2-NOW()<=15;"Expiry alert. "&ROUNDUP(D2-NOW();0)&" days left";"")

    It might be, that you need to replace the ; with , depending on your regional settings.

     

    If you really want an alert in Outlook, you would need VBA programming for that.
