Using a Calculated Value for a Date/Time Column in SP List
Hello SP Community,
I'm trying to create a date/time column in a SP list using a calculated value. I would like to create an "Expiration Date" column (calculated value) by adding 3 months to "Date of Recognition" (date/time column in same list)
This is what I have tried:
=DATE(YEAR([Column4]),MONTH([Column4])+[Column10],DAY([Column4]))
Where:
- Column 4 = Date of Recognition
- Column 10 = Months Available (default value = 3)
Any help is greatly appreciated!
RLUGO I can't see anything wrong with your formula; this worked for me:
=DATE(YEAR([Insurance Expiry Date]),MONTH([Insurance Expiry Date])+Months,DAY([Insurance Expiry Date]))So what result are you getting?

RobElliott This won't seem to work if the additional months make it greater than 12 though.

RLUGO no, it needs to be a calculated column. It won't work in the way you have done it with a date/time column.
