    Simple Formula, cant get logic to work

    I need it to report the QTR (Qtr 1, Qtr 2, Qtr 3 & Qtr 4) based on date, cant get all four to work correctly at same time. Is there a fix to my logic or a simpler way to do it?

    =CONCATENATE(IF(MONTH(M9)>=4,"QTR 2",IF(MONTH(M9)>=7,"QTR 3",IF(MONTH(M9)>=10,"QTR 4","QTR 1")))& " FY"&YEAR(M9))

    Answer should say : "QTR 2 FY2016" or similar based on date

    Just try this formula

    ="QTR "&CEILING(MONTH(M9),3)/3&" "&"FY"&YEAR(M9)

    Your post does not comply with Rule 1 of our Forum RULES. Your post title should accurately and concisely describe your problem, not your anticipated solution.

    Use terms appropriate to a Google search. Poor thread titles, like Please Help, Urgent, Need Help, Formula Problem, Code Problem, and Need Advice will be addressed according to the OP's experience in the forum: If you have less than 10 posts, expect (and respond to) a request to change your thread title. If you have 10 or more posts, expect your post to be locked, so you can start a new thread with an appropriate title.

    To change a Title go to your first post, click EDIT then Go Advanced and change your title, if 2 days have passed ask a moderator to do it for you.

    (This thread should receive no further responses until this moderation request is fulfilled, as per Forum Rule 7)
