    Formula to stop calculation if the redemption status is not Yet to be dispatched

    Hi,

    I have a file that tracks orders placed.

    Column A gives the request date of the order, based on the TAT in column B the projected dispatch date gets calculated.

    Once the order is dispatched and the date gets updated in column Z, the redemption status in column V gets updated as "Dispatched within TAT" or "Dispatched out of TAT" based on whether they have met the TAT or not. If the dispatch date is left blank then it shows "Yet to be dispatched".

    My problem is that the column D does not stop calculation even after the order is dispatched. And therefore because of the conditional formatting turns red the minute the number is more than 0. So it is misleading.

    I hope I have not confused the narration!

    Regards,
    Smitha

    Change formula in column D from "=TODAY()-C2" to "=IF(Z2="",TODAY()-C2,0)" and change the Conditional Formatting.
