Update SharePoint column status depending on if a date has passed or not
Hi
I am trying to do an auto update column for status of staff holiday (pending, active, ended)
I have 2 date columns 'start date' and 'end date'
I have set up conditional formatting on the status column as follows
=IF([Start Date]>TODAY(),"Pending",IF([End Date]>TODAY(),"Active",IF([End Date]<TODAY(),"Ended")))
but there are some issues with this formula.
Can anyone help me write a formula that would work for such instance.
TIA
Liron567 Try using this:
=IF([Start Date]>TODAY(),"Pending",IF([End Date]>TODAY(),"Active",IF([End Date]<TODAY(),"Ended","")))If not working, you can try using NOW() instead of TODAY()

- Thank you, this looks similar to mine. Could you please tell me what you changed.
TIALiron567 IF function in SharePoint calculated formula has syntax like below:
IF(logical_test, value_if_true, value_if_false)You did not provide value_if_false parameter in your formula for last IF function.
