I want to create an automation that runs every time the field Due Date is updated.

I have a data field “Expected Due Date”. This field is dynamic and changes according to other tasks. I want to create a field that measures (Due Date - Expected Due Date). This field should be updated every time the Due Date field is updated.

How can I create this in Pipefy?

What about using “run a formula” automation?

Something like below settings:

  • Fields:

 

  • Automation “run a formula”:
  • After running: (result is in day unit with some rounding)

The major issue with this approach is that we need to create a form field "Due Date". While in fact, I want to use the native field Due Date. This field, inside a card's info:

i.e.: I have this card with august 29 as Due Date. This was set up by a custom field (named "Custom field Due Date") in Phase A of my Pipe. Once I change de Due Date to august 30 in the card's info (image above), it won't change the Custom field Due Date to august 30. It will remain as august 29. So, the automation won't be triggered.

I see. It would not trigger the automation indeed. 😕

I don’t have another suggestion right now 🤔
