Filling a predefined value in a cell based on background color of another cell?
magnusjonasson You have to use the calculated column formula in this format:
=IF([Justnupadatum] <= TODAY()-[Malantalbankdagar], "Not OK", IF([Justnupadatum] >= TODAY()-[Malantalbankdagar], "OK", ""))Here you have to use the display names of columns instead of internal names. Also, if TODAY() does not work, try using NOW().

magnusjonasson Use this JSON for Status column:
{
"$schema": "https://developer.microsoft.com/json-schemas/sp/v2/column-formatting.schema.json",
"elmType": "div",
"txtContent": "=if(@currentField <= addDays(@now, -1 * [$M_x00e5_lantalbankdagar]), 'Not OK', if(@currentField >= addDays(@now, -1 * [$M_x00e5_lantalbankdagar]), 'OK', ''))"
}
Note: This just displays the value (OK/Not OK) in list view for Status column. It does not actually set the value in Status column.

- Thanks! Tried your JSON above on Status column and it shows 'Not OK' whatever date I enter. Color coding works correct but I can't figure out why it doesn't say 'OK' when color is green. Any idea?
Also, will I be able to filter on Status when there is no actual value for it?magnusjonasson You can follow this article to find out the correct internal name of your date column: Find the internal name of SharePoint column

magnusjonasson I forgot to change date column name in JSON conditions in above JSON. Use below JSON instead:
{ "$schema": "https://developer.microsoft.com/json-schemas/sp/v2/column-formatting.schema.json", "elmType": "div", "txtContent": "=if([$Justnupadatum] <= addDays(@now, -1 * [$M_x00e5_lantalbankdagar]), 'Not OK', if([$Justnupadatum] >= addDays(@now, -1 * [$M_x00e5_lantalbankdagar]), 'OK', ''))" }Use correct internal name of your date column in place of [$Justnupadatum] in above JSON.
Unfortunately, filtering/sorting will not work if you are using JSON to show values.

- Okay, thank you. Works as expected!
Is there any way to actually set a value for the Status cell based on background color of another cell, to be able to use it for filtering?
