ijin suhu, mau tanya bagaimana caranya jika saya ingin membuat tanggal tetap jika kondisi terpenuhi
misalnya
pada tes melompat
pada tanggal 06 Juni 2022, budi berhasil lulus tes, maka hasilnya muncul tanggal 06 juni 2022
kemudian tangal 07 juni 2022, andi berhasil lulus , maka keluar hasil tanggal 07 juni 2022
tanggal 08 juni 2022, badu berhasil lulus, maka keluar hasil tanggal 08 juni
dst...
akan tetapi di worksheet tersebut jika dibuka di tanggal 09 juni, maka datanya tidak berubah
yakni budi tetap muncul hasil tanggal 6 juni, andi tanggal 7 juni dan badu tanggal 08 juni

mohon pencerahan
