Automated Update Request depending on how old the data is

Daniell Morrisey

Hi there

I'm baffled - this sounds like a standard process but I can't work out how to do it and would appreciate any advice.

I have a database, the first item in column one is "UPDATE DATE". I want to use this to trigger an update request - ie: if the date is older than 3 months, send an update request, and keep doing so every day (or every week) until the UPDATE DATE has been updated to one less than 3 months.

Surely that must be possible? Any ideas?

Thanks so much, Dan😃

You would set the trigger for when a date is reached, select a custom recurrence, and set it for every 1 day. Then you would include conditions of the updated date not being today and not in the past 90 days (assuming the date will never be a future date in which case you would just use another condition to exclude that as well).
