I am trying to set up a workflow email alert to be send to the owner of the record 7 days before the Due Date (date/time field ) if the picklist value Attending__c is not equals  to "Yes"

 

Thank you

Just create a WFR that uses a formula like this:

 

NOT(ISPICKVAL(Attending__c, "Yes")) 

or

TEXT(Attending__c)  <> "Yes")

 and then add a Time-Dependent WF Action (Email) scheduled 7 days before the Due Date

AND(
NOT( ISPICKVAL(Attending__c, "Yes")),
DATEVALUE( DueDate__c)  <=  TODAY() - 7)

 I created this one, is it gonna work!?!!

Thanks Stevemo,

 

yes! I realise that if I put the date in the formula then I cannot setup the time dependent action properly!

Hi,

I want to send an email 7 days prior to the completion date. In the workflow, we have evaluation criteria which says like 1 . when the record is created 2. when the record is created or edited. 3. When the record is created and any anytime edited to meet criteria.

But in my scenario, the mail has to notified even if the record is not edited reccently. It has been created but edited at all. But before the completion date, email hass to be triggered.

Can you anyone suggest me some idea.

Thanks
