Hi Everyone,

I’d like to add a column to my Glide Page that calculates a future date based on when an entry was done.  
To be clearer, I’d like the entries placed between Monday and Saturday of week 1, shows a payment date of next Thursday.  
How do I do this?

I would use 3 columns for this:

- Start with a Math column that determines the Weekday of the given Date  
`Weekday(Date)`
- Add a second Math column that determines the date of Thursday of the following week  
`Date + (5-Weekday(Date)) + 7`
- Finally, an if-then-else column that only outputs the date of next Thursday if the given date is not a Sunday  
– If Day of Week is greater than 1, then next Thursday’s Date

Here is how that would look:
