Update date column when another column drop-down is selected
Looking for the formula to change a column to a date when another column drop-down is selected. The date would reflect the actual date the column drop-down list was selected
Example
If EPMO Stakeholder Decision (Approved, Declined, Deferred) is selected
The EPMO approval date will auto-update to the date when the EPMO decision is selected
Looking for the formula to auto-populate the EPMO Approval Date

There is automation that will do this now, as opposed to a formula. Use "Record a Date" automation to record the current day's date in a Date-type column when another column changes value.
