Monitoring KPIs - 1 month deadline

Hi,
I need to monitor some KPIs and I would like to know how I can formula to show if a date is outside of a 1 month turnaround. I am trying to use the IF function but I'm not sure how to make this work.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

Rob

RE: Monitoring KPIs - 1 month deadline

Hi Robert,

Thank you for the forum question.

I do not know how you have organised your data, but I have a suggestion to do what you want.

Please find attached file (if you cannot see the attachment please refresh your browser).

I have used the If function, but I have also done an example where I am using conditional formatting.

I hope my examples make sense.


Kind regards

Hi Jens and thanks for getting back so quickly. I can't see the attachment anywhere. Sorry it's my first time using the forum. I tried refreshing the page but it still wouldn't show.

Scratch that last message I can see the attachment now! :-)

RE: Monitoring KPIs - 1 month deadline

Thanks for that Jens. It's not quite appropriate for what I'm doing. Basically I need to flag if one date is more than a month after another date. I've taken a screen shot but I can't see how to attach it.

Hi Robert,

Please find attached file.

If you cannot see the attachment, wait few minutes and refresh the browser.

I have used the Edate function inside an If function.

Please let me know if this is what you want.

Thanks

Kind regards

RE: Monitoring KPIs - 1 month deadline

HI Jens. That's closer. I was thinking more like =IF(AL2<EDATE(AH2MONTH),1,0) (obviously this isn't a valid formula but the deadline is 1 month or less so I need the value to be 1 if the date in AL2 is more than 1 month after the date in AH2)

RE: Monitoring KPIs - 1 month deadline

Hi Robert,

Try

=IF(AL2<=EDATE(AH2,1),1,0)


Kind regards
