Automation Rules - New option - Working days
Hello,
I'm actually using an automation rule based on calendar days which is the only one option for the moment, I was wondering if you can add a "working day" option for those automation rules?
Thanks a lot!

I've really enjoyed all the updates that have been made to the automations in recent months! I came here wondering if the ability to choose work days was in the works. Maybe I should make a current post about it since this is such an old entry? But this would be an excellent addition!
Hi Marina Conover, thank you for your comment. May I please ask you to elaborate on your suggestion so we can better understand what you'd like to achieve? 🙂
Thank you!
Hi @...! An example is a task gets set to 'In Review' and the automation would be to message the reviewer a reminder once it's been waiting for 3 days. Ideally that would be 3 work days, rather than calendar days.
If the triggering status was set on a Friday, 3 calendar days means the 'reminder' is sent on Monday and feels more like hounding them for not getting to the task immediately. If you can set it to 3 work days, the reminder is sent on Wednesday and works as it is actually intended.
Hi Marina Conover, thank you very much for the additional details on your use case, I've shared your comments with our Product Team and we will keep you updated in case there are any improvements 👍
