Hi all,
I have been recommended this site by a friend as I am having issues with a spreadsheet I have created and so I would be very grateful if any of you could help me get to where I need to be.
So, I have 3 worksheets on my document all of which needs dates input into them. I have a 4th reference sheet with the dates that each action has been completed and how long it lasts for from the date input. I would like to have this reflected on my worksheets using conditional formatting and the traffic light system so you can easily identify which person(s) will be due to go out of date etc.

Green - in date
Amber - one month to go
Red - very nearly out of date

I would also like to be able to change the dates in the reference sheet as and when i need to each time the action has been done again in 6/12 months' time. I am just not sure which formula(s) to use...

Worksheet 1

Worksheet 2

I do hope this makes sense and that one of you may be able to help me :)
Kind regards
J
