magnusjonasson Couple of options for this:
- Use calculated column for status - Note, you will not be able to change value via list forms later
- Use Power automate flow to change the status column value based on date column - you can run flow on item creation and/or item update for immediate update of status column OR scheduled flow to update status at certain times in a day.
- Customize list form using Power apps, update status column value using Power apps formulas based on date column value.
