Record a Dynamic Date

Hi there ;

İ would like to get your advices about below issue ;

I want to set a workflow that system will remind a row every 15 th day each month.

but it will be dynamic , i mean if i am in october system will show in this cell 15.10.2021 , if i am in november system will show in the cell 15.11.2021 etc .

İ think i need to create a formula in a cell then i can set a workflow via that date cell.

Could you pls help to create this formula

Thanks in advance for your kind replies

    "Repeats Every" is the interval of how many months until the action repeats. A value of "1" means that it occurs on the 15th of every month. A value of "2" would run on the 15th every other month, a value of "12" would run once a year.


    If you wanted this to run for 10 years, then under the "End" section, you could choose the end date, or end after 120 occurrences.

    You should be able to do this using a custom workflow trigger without needing to create a dynamic date field.

    Create a workflow to send a notification to the group you want to issue a reminder for. Set the trigger to run "When a date is reached". Clock on the drop down arrow next to "Run Once" and choose "Custom" You can then set the workflow to run every 1 Month on the 15th Day.
