I am working on an a project and for each day, I am required to decrease a cell value by one.

For instance, on 01/14/2021 cell B2= 91 and I need the value to decrease by 1 until it reaches 0. 

Whta formula could I use so that the value decreses on its own ?

    Enter the start value 91 in another cell, say in Z1.

    In B2, enter the formula

    =MAX(Z1-(TODAY()-DATE(2021,1,14)),0)
