    IF statements to show business quarter

    Hello,

    I'm new on this forum and I haven't been able to find something has worked.

    I have a spreadsheet that tracks all field equipment inspections. This year, certain equipments will need to be inspected twice a year. Ideally, if it was inspected in Quarter 1, it needs to be inspected again in Quarter 3 and if it's Q2 then it'll be inspected again in Q4.

    I need a formula that will tell me when the next inspection is due.

    This is what I have so far:
    Column I (Formula): date of last inspection
    Column J (manual entry): "yes" for equipment that will be inspected semi-annually
    Column K (formula): The Quarter is was inspected based on Column I's date
    Column L (hopefully a formula and where I need help)The quarter the next inspection is due

    Thank you!

    Re: IF statements to show business quarter

    perhaps add a spreadsheet here, rather than an image

    you could add three months

    =date(year(I2),Month(I2)+3,Day(I2))

    OR just to show the quarter
    =IF(ROUNDUP(MONTH(I2)/3,0)=4,1,(ROUNDUP(MONTH(I2)/3,0))+1)

    this adds two quarters
    =IF(ROUNDUP(MONTH(A1)/3,0)=3,1,IF(ROUNDUP(MONTH(A1)/3,0)=4,2,(ROUNDUP(MONTH(A1)/3,0))+2))

    so you could test if semi-annual and use

    etaf,

    I tried your formula but it said it has too many arguments.

    I attached a copy of the worksheet i'm working on for you to see.

    Thank you!

    Re: IF statements to show business quarter

    try this
    =IF(OR(I6="",I6="not inspected",J6="suspended"),"",IF(J6="YES",IF(ROUNDUP(MONTH(I6)/3,0)=3,"Q1",IF(ROUNDUP(MONTH(I6)/3,0)=4,"Q2","Q"&(ROUNDUP(MONTH(I6)/3,0))+2)),"Q"&ROUNDUP(MONTH(I6)/3,0)))

    I have added some error checking

    But it needs lots of testing for different periods

    this uses quarters - if you want dates - you can use =DATE(YEAR(I8),MONTH(I8)+3,DAY(I8))
    just change the MONTH(I8)+3 to +6 or +12 for , 3 months, 6 months, annually

    EDIT
    Updated and added every month in cells I11 to I41
