Thanks guyz!
The portion of my "beasty" formula that you see below works well.
=IF(AND(TODAY()>EDATE(AL7,12),AA7<>"",AL7<>"",AN7="Referred to Tx"),"Updated
Eval Needed Before New RF",IF(OR(AA7<>"",AND(TODAY()>AG7,AN7="AC
Initiated")),IF(AND(TODAY()>AG7,AN7="AC Initiated"),IF(AP7="","Check AC
Status",IF(AND(TODAY()>EDATE(AP7,6),AN7="AC Initiated"),"Re-Check AC
Status","")),IF(AND(TODAY()>EDATE(AA7,12),AN7="Referred to
TX"),IF(AL7="","Eval Before RF",
The string below doesn't seem to register during testing, however it does
not create any error messages when incorporated. It is as if I never included
this string.
IF(AND(TODAY()>EDATE(AL7,6),AN7="Referred to Tx"),"Confirm AC Follow
Through","")),"")),
This last string does work, and flags according to the logic.
IF(AL7<>"",IF(AND(TODAY()>EDATE(AL7,12),AN7="Referred to Tx"),"New Eval
Needed",""),"")))
So now that I almost have it, any final suggestions to tame this beast?
Thanks,
Dan
