Question : Excel Due Date Over Due

Hello,

I'm setting up a worksheet where I enter a contact date in A1 a number business days to follow up in B1 and I have the date to follow up in in C1 and if there is no days to follow up C1 stays blank using the following formula.

=IF(B2="","",WORKDAY(A1,B1))

What I would like to do is change the date in C1 to the word OVERDUE in red if the date in A1 is more than 5 business days old.

If that does not work I'll settle for an additional column that would compre the dates in A1 and C1 and again, if todays date is later than the date in C1 than display OVERDUE in red.

Thank you,

John

Answer : Excel Due Date Over Due

John,

Try this:

=IF(B2="","",IF(TODAY()>WORKDAY(A1,B1),"OVERDUE",WORKDAY(A1,B1))

Then use Conditional Formatting to make the font color red if that cell = "OVERDUE"
