Hi, I am having trouble finding the right formula with an excel spreadsheet. I have a client who pays us based upon when they approve our invoice. So, if an invoice is approved, between date 1 and date 2, then the payment date will be date 3.

I know the invoice approval dates, but would like to know if there is a formula or function I can use to run through the data and return the date the invoice will be paid (date 3)

Thanking you in advance

    Is there a set date when invoices get paid, for example: whenever you get an invoice it has to be paid 10 days after.
    So from your invoice approval date add 10 days. In Excel select cell, then =, then select 'invoice approval date', then +10.

    Like I said, I know the date the invoice was approved, it's just that I wanted to create a formula to use in a spreadsheet to tell me when each invoice will be paid.

    TIA, Stuart
