POWER USER PRO TIP

Real-Time Formulas & Functions

In this tip, we’ll practice building real-time project trackers using a combination of date and time functions.

COMMON USE CASES:

  • Displaying the current date or time in a worksheet cell
  • Creating scheduling or timeline tools that update with any workbook change
