If you have a sales report in excel and wanted to know the over dues amount and remaining days for due then you can use this Formula in your excel sheet.
This formula will show the Overdues Days in Red Color, Remaining Days for Payment in Blue color and if Amount if due for Today then it will show the day in Black Color as “Today” Text.
Raw Sales Data
You just simply copy and paste the below code in “Format Cells” option in “Custom” option as shown in the Image below-
Format code:
[Blue]# "Days Remaining";[Red]# "Days Overdue";[Black]# "Today"
Let’s break it down:
[Blue]# "Days Remaining": This part specifies the format for positive numbers. It will display the number with a blue font color and the text “Days Remaining” after it.[Red]# "Days Overdue": This part specifies the format for negative numbers. It will display the absolute value of the number with a red font color and the text “Days Overdue” after it.[Black] "Today": This part specifies the format for zero (0) or any other non-numeric entry. It will display the text “Today” with a black font color.
Output After Applying the Format Code
The above custom number format is designed to visually differentiate positive, negative, and zero values in a cell based on their font color and accompanying text. It’s a creative way to present data related to days remaining, days overdue, and the current day.
