Hello,

I am a beginner with formulas in Excel. I am working with dates formatted dd/mm/yyyy. I need a formula that will return a value of yes or no, if the date in cell A1 is before or after the date in cell B1.

Can someone help.

Thanks,
Mel

Use IF statement

'yes if date 1 is not equal to day 2
=IF(A1<>B1, "YES", "NO")

'to show you use of nested if
=IF(A1>B1, "YES, A1>B1, IF(A1=B1, "YES, A1=B1, "Default A1 < B1"))

I am using the formula to determine which deposit dates were late vs timely, and it is not calculating correctly. Can you help me determine why? Everything except for a blank E8 comes out "late".

=IF(E8>M8,"LATE",IF(E8=M8,"TIMELY",IF(E8<M8,"TIMELY")))
