I need help writing a script or formula that will allow me to sort records by the earliest date of two date fields. I’m trying to avoid having to create a third date field. Thanks!

Hi @Kat_Dalager

Maybe try this (edit updated for earliest date):


IF({Date 1}<{Date 2}, {Date 1}, {Date 2})

Thanks, I’ll try it!

It seems to be taking the earliest date and subtracting a day. Any idea what I did wrong?

I think I know what I did. I clicked off the “same time zone for all collaborators.” I clicked it back on and it worked. Thank you!
