🛠 Days Remaining

I’ve noticed that a lot of Notion users are curious about different ways to manipulate deadline formulas for task management. Here is how one can determine if a deadline is upcoming, today, tomorrow or past. As well, how many days remain or have elapsed between now and the deadline.

Properties You’ll Need

  • Name property for name of task or appointment

  • Date property called “deadline.” Can be changed after implementing formula.

  • Formula property for the following:

The Formula

if(formatDate(prop("Deadline"), "MMM DD, YYYY") == formatDate(now(), "MMM DD, YYYY"), "Due Today ✅", if(dateBetween(prop("Deadline"), now(), "days") > 0, format(dateBetween(prop("Deadline"), now(), "days") + 1) + " Days Remaining", if(dateBetween(prop("Deadline"), now(), "days") > -1, "Due Tomorrow 🔜", if(dateBetween(prop("Deadline"), now(), "days") < 0, format(abs(dateBetween(prop("Deadline"), now(), "days"))) + " Days Past Due ⭕️", ""))))
