Custom Column If condition

Hi,

I got error after typing this statement.

if(date([Deadline])<=date([Date of extratime]) then date( [Date of extratime]) else date([Deadline]))

Any help on this?

@Anonymous , do not use the first parenthesis "(" after if; and one at end ")"

try like

if [deadline] < [date of execution] then date[deadline] else [date of execution]  

 

Change columns as per need
