Very simple, but I couldn’t seem to find it anywhere.



I have a “date contacted” date field, and a “follow up” date field.



I want the “follow up” date field to automatically populate a date that is one week out.



Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Rather than using a date field, you could use a formula field. The date functions are documented here, but here’s an example:



Date Contacted (Date)


1/1/2021



Follow-up (Formula)


1/8/2021



Follow-up’s formula:





IF(


    {Date Contacted},


    DATETIME_FORMAT(


        DATEADD({Date Contacted},1, 'weeks'),


        'MM/DD/YYYY'


    ),


    ""


)




If you’d like to use a pattern other than DD/MM/YYYY, date patterns are documented here.

@Zollie thanks! That’s really helpful 🙂

Just want to ask! I successfully calculate the date. However, airtable said the result isn't present as a date form, so I can not produce a calender accordingly. Would you give some advice!
