I’ve tried and failed several times to understand the arms section of this pattern. Is this a formatting error, or are you actually making another chain of 6 after working around the initial chain (see bolded section below)?

To start this piece, we are going to make a chain and then crochet in the round around the chain.
Chain 6. 
Round 1) Down the chain: 4 sc, 3 sc in the next st, Up the other side of the chain: 4 sc, 3 sc in the next st (14)
1) Chain 6
2) Working down the chain: 4 sc, 3 sc in the next st
3) Up the other side of the chain: 4 sc, 3 sc in the next st
Round 2) sc around (14) 
Round 3) [5 sc, dec] rep 2 times (12) 
Round 4) [4 sc, dec] rep 2 times (10) 
Round 5) sc around (10) 
Round 6) – Round 13) sc around (10) 
Make 2 more sc's.

Hello,

I’ve only been working in tableau for a little over two months and have been learning everything on the fly as I’ve been tasked with a pretty ambitious dashboard build on a quick timeline.

A note: the client comes from excel world so their expectations are built around that.

The link I’ve shared is intended to be one viz out of a larger dashboard. The goal is to have the table conditionally formatted to compare the date in each column to a date not shown, but in the dataset (Submission month). The request is for the color to change based on if:date is a match, date is late within one month, or later than one month/no date “no data submitted”.

I’ve dabbled with calculated fields and parameters trying to solve this, but I think converting them to date fields really throws a wrench into things. Any ideas here?
