Does anyone know why my automated workflow does not pull all the information to new sheet?
This is my trigger and action.
see column 6 row 1, that did not get pull over. Why?

Have you checked the Activity Log and Cell History for clues?

Andree,
I looked through the cell history and activity log. For some reason it is inserting 2 new columns and copying the information that is missing into one of those column but that is not part of my workflow. see my automated workflow from above for conditions and actions I set. This is what it is doing
Do you know why it is inserting these 2 columns instead of doing what the workflow tells it to do?
-
The added columns were probably added to the Source sheet, and when it copies over, it adds all the columns, even those that weren't added before.
Make sense?

Andree,
there are not added columns on the source sheet though.
-
Ok, but the added columns were already available in the source sheet. Correct?

the added columns are in the source sheet but not the extra ones.
first pic is the source sheet with trailer and comment column, second sheet it got added another trailer and comment column to it. Why did it add the extra columns when I did not put that in my workflow?
-
It looks like someone changed the name of the columns, and that's why they were added again.
Trailer #, Trailer
Comments, Comment
Make sense?
