If null, then use other columns values (Easy IF statement maybe?)

@Ttaylor9870 So if it is really "null" as in the word "null" it would be:

Close Date Column = IF([Order Date] = "null",[Date Secured],[Order Date])

if the "null" in your data represents a "blank" the it is:

Close Date Column = IF([Order Date] = BLANK(),[Date Secured],[Order Date])
