Automation

Question

I am doing an automation that changes the follow up day to the next business day if it is not equal to the current day and the next business day. It is working fine with all scenarios except the one where the follow up date is the same as the follow up date, it still changes it to the next business day

Thank you Bill, I ended up using {{now.dayOfMonth}} and it worked

What did not work as expected?  Please provide examples of the exact scenarios you tried for context.

Also, please post an image of your complete, updated rule and the audit log details showing the rule execution.

Until we see those...

It is possible this is the difference in time zones.  I believe values such as {{now}} default to UTC.  Perhaps convert the time zone for now before comparisons:

Hi Bill, Thanks for the suggestion. However, this also did not help.
