Use Summary Field as dynamic field in message

Aloha!

I have a workflow that needs to report on summary field totals that I want to be able to trigger an alert notification message for ...

Mahalo!

Hi @Char T

I hope you're well and safe!

Here's a possible workaround or workarounds

• Add a so-called helper column that references the Sheet Summary Field and convert it to a column formula so it's included on all rows.

Would that work/help?

I hope that helps!

Be safe, and have a fantastic week!

Best,

Mahalo! That worked as far as being able to create a notification alert and use the column fields with the Message Only option, but now the challenge is that I only need that to appear for the 1st instance per day - i.e. I have staff submitting their orders for tomorrow and the helper columns are summarizing that, but when I create the workflow, how do I make it so that it will only generate one alert?
