Hi all - I want to create a rule where when I enter a date into a property, it creates a task - can anyone help me to do this?

Thanks,

Hi @GBlakemore,

This type of automation requires a Professional subscription. You would navigate to _Menu_ \> _Automation_ \> _Workflows_ and create a workflow for the object you’re changing the date property on:

Without workflows, this is not possible.

Best regards!
