How can I use emojis with conditional formulas in Airtable?
In this example, you want a "Status" field that automatically marks tasks when they are “Overdue”. You also have a "Due Date" column with dates and a checkbox column titled "Completed."
In this example, there are 3 possible outcomes:
If the “Completed” box is selected, the “Status” field reads “Done.”
If the “Completed” box isn't selected, and the due date is before today’s date, the “Status” field reads“Overdue.”
If the Completed box isn't selected, and the due date is today or after today’s date, the “Status” reads “In-progress.”
What formula is used in this example?
IF({Completed?} = 1, "Done",IF(IS_BEFORE({Due Date}, TODAY()), "Overdue","In-progress"))
