To accomplish this task in Airtable, you can generate a formula field that computes the initiation of customized monthly groupings. Afterwards, create another formula field to mark the grouping, using the following steps:
1. Create a new formula field named "Group Start Date".
2. Use the following formula in the "Group Start Date" field:
IF(
WEEKDAY({Date}) = 1,
{Date},
DATEADD(
{Date},
IF(WEEKDAY({Date}) = 0, -6, 2 - WEEKDAY({Date})),
'days'
)
)
To determine if the date falls on a Monday (1), this formula is used. If the date is on a Monday, it remains unchanged. If it is not, the formula locates the previous Monday.
3. Create a new formula field named "Month Grouping".
4. Use the following formula in the "Month Grouping" field:
DATETIME_FORMAT(
{Group Start Date},
"YYYY MM: MMMM"
)
With this formula, you can easily format the "Group Start Date" to display as "Year Month#: Month Name." This will create a "Month Grouping" field which allows you to organize your records based on the customized month groupings you have set.
