Question

concatenate with a date

asked on June 1, 2021

I would like to concatenate fields that have dates

For instance Concatenate the Employee Name then Date Hired to show:

=CONCATENATE(EMPFIRST, " ",EMPLAST," DATE HIRED: ",HIREDATE)

First Last; DATE HIRED: 01/01/2021  The date ends up just a series of numbers.

You can grab the month, day and year of that date field independently. 

=CONCATENATE(First," ",Last," Date Hired: ",MONTH(Date_Hired),"/",DAY(Date_Hired),"/",YEAR(Date_Hired))

You can also wrap it in an if statement so that it stays blank until the hire date is filled out. Otherwise it could show an error before the date is filled in.

=IF(Date_Hired="","",CONCATENATE(First," ",Last," Date Hired: ",MONTH(Date_Hired),"/",DAY(Date_Hired),"/",YEAR(Date_Hired)))
