If cell = now – current Qtr – 28 days then RED

I’m trying to work out a formula which is based upon quarters. So, if the
date in column C is more than 28 days + 3 months (i.e. last quarter) + this
quarter then the cell displays RED

The quarters run
Qtr 1 01/01 – 31/03
Qtr 2 01/04 – 30/06
Qtr 3 01/07 – 31/09
Qtr 4 01/10 – 31/12

So essentially, working on the quarter we’re in (Currently Qtr 3) if a date
is displayed that is older than 28 days prior to the beginning of Qtr 2 I
want it highlighting. But I need it to be consistent so I can repeat it at
any time in the year.

Any help would be very much appreciated.

Regards,

Terry

=AND(C1<>"",C1<DATE(YEAR(TODAY()),CEILING(MONTH(TODAY()),3)-5,1)-28)

4. Click Format Button>Pattern and select your color (say Red)
