Sharepoint calculated column if date greater than another column
- Nov 06, 2018
Hey Matt Weston,
I thought it was working but it's not! Just noticed, the validation is not working properly.
The formula that works is this one =[To Date]>=[From Date].
Hi Rafael Benicio if you're looking at doing something with a calculated column then you could use a formula like this:
IF([End Date]>[Start Date],"Date Greater Than","Date Less Than")
You could apply column formatting to this column to then show a visible difference between the TRUE and FALSE values.
If you're looking to do column level validation, then unfortunately you can't compare two columns.
Hi Matt Weston,
Thank you for your reply. Unfortunately, The formula below didn't work.
IF([To Date]>[From Date],"Date Greater Than","Date Less Than")
Here is the error message:

Matt Weston Never mind, I put the formula in the validation settings under list settings and it worked.
Thank you so much! Cheers!

Hi Rafael Benicio, yes that is how the formula would be for list validation. Apologies, the original formula I gave you was for a calculated column.
