I want cells in Column M to get a color if date (in that cell) has reached 90 days and if Column A has the value "Onvoltooid"
I selected the column range and clicked on the item: Conditional Formatting.
Here I set:
Format Cells if...
Date is
exact date..
then I wrote: TODAY() - DATE() > x
//x = 90 days for test x = 1 day
and I selected a color.
But it does not work. is TODAY() - DATE() > x
even correct notation?

The solution is a multi-criteria formula.
In my case you want both criteria to be true.
Use this:
=and(criteria_1, criteria_2)
in the Conditional Formatting functionality. Use this as the 'custom formula' entry.this formula says:
Criteria_1: if date of TODAY minus Date-value in column M (from row 3) is higher than '7' days.
AND
Criteria_2: The value of that same row on another column (column A, row 3) is "onvoltooid" (which is a specific value)
Then give specific color to the selected range.
