How can you display the content team's deadline as X-3 days without manual entry?

• A. Enter the deadline manually for each task.
• B. Use a formula column to calculate X-3 days.
• C. Set a separate calendar view to show adjusted date.
• D. Attach a document with the deadline.

Answer: (B)

Calculating a derived date by offsetting an existing date is best done with a formula column. It lets you reference the original deadline field and automatically compute a new date that is three days earlier, so the value stays in sync with any changes. In Monday.com you can implement this with a formula like ADD_DAYS({Deadline}, -3), which returns the deadline minus three days. This eliminates manual updates and ensures consistency across tasks. Other options don’t provide automatic calculation: entering dates manually is error-prone; a separate calendar view or attaching a document doesn’t create or display the adjusted date.
