Hi! I'm looking to create a formula where the "Due Date" is  7 days out from my "Send Date." However, I need a condition where if the "Send Date" falls on a Saturday or Sunday, the "Due Date" is automatically set to a Friday

Hi @ktpoung,

Try something like the following,

IF({Send Date},IF(WEEKDAY({Send Date})=6,DATEADD({Send Date},-7,'day'),IF(WEEKDAY({Send Date})=0,DATEADD({Send Date},-8,'day'),DATEADD({Send Date},-6,'day'))))

 I was testing this really quickly on my end & both Saturday & Sunday dates in a 'Send Date' field would result in a Due date on the friday that is 8/9 days prior - I figured you had a 7 day window here, so setting the due date 1 day, or 2 days prior to the send date would not work for what you are trying to do. 

Let me know if this works 🙂
