Formula or Automation?
Hi all
Hope someone can help me please?
Is there any way of counting how many times a cell on a row changes value?
We have an "Installation Date" in our schedule for each job and we want to track how many times builders/clients change the installation date.
I realise I will need a dedicated column to do this.
Thank you in advance.

Hi @Tracey Tume
I hope you're well and safe!
- Use Workflows combined with the change cell action and have it change to a higher number each time.
- Use a Workflow to copy the row to a so-called helper sheet and count the number of rows.
Would any of those options work/help?
I hope that helps!
Be safe, and have a fantastic weekend!

Thank you for your suggestions.
I have tried the Workflow idea and Change Cell Value but it isn't working. Not sure you can +1 as it sees it as text not an equation.
Thanks.
