Auto insert a Static date

Copper Contributor

I was wondering if there is a way to automatically insert the static date in a worksheet if value is entered in another cell.

Example/reason.

I have a UAT testing log, and when the customer selects ‘Complete’ from a dropdown, (in cell I4), then I want the static date to be populated into another cell (O4) to show and record the date the action was completed.

Any advice most welcome.

To my knowledge there are two ways - use some VBA programming; or formula like this

=IF(A1<>"", IF(B1="",NOW(), B1), "")

but the latest requires that iterative calculations to be swithed on

what could have a negative side effect.
