Hello I would like to have a field set up that updates the date every time the 'status' changes in another column. Is this possible? For example, when a new line item is added and the status column changes to 'on hold' I would like the date the status changed to show in another column. This date will stay the date since the status was put to 'on hold' and the date will only update when the status changes again.

When you go into the column properties to change the column type, or when you create a new column. you can select the system generated type and there will be an option for a Modified (date) which will output the date/time that something in the row was last changed.

Not necessarily. As long as there are two rows of the same hierarchy immediately above or below that contain the formula, it will autofill when the new row is added.
