Good afternoon, I'm trying to find a way to do a check box formula to make a check box be checked if a date is past due. So I have a certification table that has the employee certification and expira...
So are you just wanting a single checkbox that is checked if any of the dates are expired? Or do you want a field that calls out visually which ones are expired if there are more than one?
For the checkbox option, you'd make a Formula Checkbox field called "Expired Certification" and the formula would be something like:
If( Today()>[Cert Date1] or Today()>[Cert Date2] or Today()>[Cert Date3] ,true)
You'd need a line for each date field you're checking against, but if any of them are expired it would check the box.
You could also do something similar with a Formula Rich Text field, except you could make it call it out the ones that are expired in red or something like that.
To do that you'll make a Formula Rich Text field called 'Expired Cert Warnings' or something like that and the code would look like:
var text CertOne = If(Today()>[Cert 1 Expiration],"<span style='font-size: 14pt; text-align: right; color: Red'>CertOne is expired!.</span>",""); var text CertTwo = If(Today()>[Cert 2 Expiration],"<span style='font-size: 14pt; text-align: right; color: Red'>CertTwo is expired!.</span>","");
List("<br>",$CertOne,$CertTwo)
You'd get this as a result if CertOne is expired:
or this if both of the 2 above are expired:
Of course you'd need to add the appropriate lines for each date field.
Hope that helps!
