    //try this
    var date MyDate = [PAYROLL START DATES];

    var number DaysToSubtract = Case(DayOfWeek($MyDate),
    0,2,
    1,3,
    2,4,
    3,5,
    4,6,
    5,0,
    6,1);

    var date LastFriday=
    $MyDate - Days($DaysToSubtract);

    If([PAYROLL START DATES] <= $LastFriday,
    "RED",
    "#FFFFE0")

        It's not colorizing some of the dates?
