Hi there! I'm Sam and I work in our Customer Support department. I am working with Matthew on a tricky situation that makes a ton of sense, but it seems what he's looking for isn't possible at this time.
You know how you can set workflow timing to operate during a specific schedule, or use a Based on a schedule enrollment trigger? Do you also know how when you turn on a workflow for the first time, you have the option to select "No, only enroll records who meet the enrollment criteria after the workflow is turned on"? What we need is an option to utilize this enrollment option in conjuncture with a schedule.
In Matthew's example, let's say you want a workflow to notify a user of all tickets that change to a specific stage during a certain period of time daily. Right now, we cannot find any possible way to do this because the existing schedule options simply control WHEN the workflow enrollment trigger and/or actions execute, but not WHEN they met the criteria. So instead of Matthew being of all tickets that change to status "Waiting on us" during a specific window of time, he is instead only notified during a specific window of time of ALL tickets that have met that criteria since the workflow was last active. This totally defeats the purpose!
I checked out the "was updated in the last" filter option for the property in question, but it's only as granular as "1 day" and we're needing it to be granual to the level of hours.
Thank you product experts, engineers and team for considering adding this ability!
