It would be helpful if formula fields were available to use in rules as triggers and if conditions. For example, we have a project that tracks tickets submitted via form as tasks. I created a “Days Since Request” formula field that calculates the number of days since the task was submitted. I would like to create a rule that adds an “Assign to provider” subtask if the value of “Days Since Request” is greater than 1 and the task is still in a particular section. ---
