Automation - Allow Calculated Custom Fields to be Added as a Condition
I have a feature request that I believe would greatly enhance Wrike's capabilities and empower users to create powerful automations. I propose integrating calculated custom fields as conditions within the automation engine.
This could be as simple as allowing calculated fields using the number format to bused as a condition using the standard comparison operators such as >= | <= | > | < | =.
My specific use case: Change status if task/project is overdue by X number of days.
How I would like to accomplish this with the additional functionality:
- Create a calculated field "Days Late": TODAY() - [Due Date]
- Automation Trigger: Due Date has Passed
- Automation Condition: Days Late > ##
- Automation Action: Change Status to "Status"
The above is a single example but this capability would provide users with greater flexibility and creativity in solving business problems using the automation engine.
