Automation not working (Changing date and status when a task is checked off)
I would like both automations to be triggered when team members check off a task in the Done Column:
- The task should be marked as complete in the status column when triggered
- The current date should be added to the Completion Date column when triggered
Currently, these are set up to run in the sheet and I'm not sure why they aren't working.
Here are screencaps of the sheet and automations to help determine the issue:
I would ideally love for both of these be included in one automation, if that's not possible two separate automations are okay. Any troubleshooting or suggestions would be appreciated! Thank you very much.

I hope you're well and safe!
Strange! I don't see any issues.
I recommend trying to copy the workflows and deactivating the old ones and see if that works.
Did that work/help?
I hope that helps!
Be safe, and have a fantastic week!

Hi @Andrée Starå!
Thank you for the suggestion. It is working after copying them and deleting the previous versions!🎉
However, it lags quite a bit, taking 10-20 seconds to begin the automations after they are triggered. Is there a way around this?
Kindly,
Miranda
