Automated workflow triggering incorrectly

We have an Alert workflow thatshould notbe sent for certain service lines. We currently us the "Any Value" trigger because we only want these sent when an Account ID is entered to the sheet. However, the conditions set to exclude that notice are still receiving the alert. Is this due to the "Any Value" trigger or is there a condition that is a stronger choice, (i.e. 'has none of' vs 'is not equal to'} that we should be using?

    Hey Tina! Just a heads up I'm not a Smartsheet employee but I'll try and help however I can.

    This one has me scratching my head. It looks like you set this up correctly.

    Could you try setting up two conditions, each one being 'Where "Service Line" is not equal to', then see if the automation is triggered?

    If this answer answers your question, please press "Yes" above - it helps the community (and those random Googlers out there ) find solutions like yours faster.

    Thanks Brett--I will give it the college try! Certainly can't hurt!

They can be added if they use a different domain.<\/p>

Excellent, and yes, I am too! Thanks!<\/p>

I'd recommend using Dynamic View.<\/p>

Share it with your company domain.<\/p>

When the user accesses it, they would only see their own submissions.<\/p>

Hi @Draykov<\/a>,<\/p>

This is an easy fix - you have some brackets in the wrong place which is causing the IF statements to not be nested properly. When combining the individual IFs, the closing brackets should end up at the end of the combined statement, with a comma separating to make the false part of the IF statement, like so:<\/p>

=IF(OR(Webinar@row = \"Session 1|Afternoon\", Webinar@row = \"Session 1|Evening\"), \"08\/24\/2023\", IF(OR(Webinar@row = \"Session 2|Afternoon\", Webinar@row = \"Session 2|Evening\"), \"08\/29\/2023\", IF(OR(Webinar@row = \"Session 3|Afternoon\", Webinar@row = \"Session 3|Evening\"), \"08\/31\/2023\")))<\/p>

Give this a whirl and it should work for you - if there are still issues then post what error you're getting! 😊<\/span><\/p>"},{"commentID":389821,"body":"

Hey @Draykov<\/a>. Looks like it's just placement of parentheses! Try the below<\/p>
