If you select this option, you must also:

  1. Select the date you want to change in the Change from field. In this example, you would select April 1.

  2. Select the date you want to use instead in the Change to field. In this example, you would select April 3.

If the date is April 2 or any date other than April 1, it will not be changed.

Change to a specific date

For example, suppose you want to change the Date wanted to April 3 for all lines. Enter April 3 in the Change to field. All lines change to April 3, regardless of their current date.

Select if you want to add or subtract a number of days from the current date for the selected date type or leave blank if you do not.

If you select this option, you must enter the number in the Number of days field that you want to add or subtract from the current date. For example, enter 7 to move the date out one week; if the date is the 10th, it becomes the 17th. Enter -3 to move the date in three days; if the date is the 10th, it becomes the 7th.
