Problem with automation and Auto-Number column ''Modified date''

Options

Hi,

I have a problem with automation vs Auto-Number column date. I created an automation to lock a row when column ''Commande ou soumission envoyée'' is checked. Problem is, when a add a check in one row, all the ''Modified date'' for all the row are updated. See below my automation and the result in yellow.

    HI@Bassam Khalil


    I got it but if the automation asked to lock a row when there is specific modification on this row (check box), why all the row who are not modified and already lock are updating modified date?
