Percentage complete based on start and end date of timeline

Hi, I am just trying to set up a formula that would work out the percent complete of a task based on todays date in relation to the start date and end date of the timeline. Could anyone recommend a formula that I can use for this?

Hi Jen,

Something like this should work:

ROUND(WORKDAYS(TODAY(),{Timeline#Start}),0)/WORKDAYS({Timeline#End},{Timeline#Start})

Want to take your formulas to the next level? Try the Advanced Formula Booster, the app that reinvents formulas in monday.

Use data from the previous item, next item, sub-items, parent item, items in the same group, items in the same board.
In one formula, update multiple columns from multiple items.

Thank you for your response, unfortunately that doesn’t seem to be doing it, dates in the past for example are showing as 91 and some over 100

Try:

IF({Timeline#End}<FORMAT_DATE(TODAY(),"YYYY-MM-DD"),1,ROUND(WORKDAYS(TODAY(),{Timeline#Start}),0)/WORKDAYS({Timeline#End},{Timeline#Start}))

Yes that seems to be working if i then *100! Amazing, thank you so much!
