Hi Fusion Community,

I'm attempting to create a Fusion scenario that has a Watch Record module with filter criteria monitoring when either the Planned Start Date OR Planned Completion Date of a task are changed.

I'm struggling to find a way to do this. Any suggestions are welcome.
Thanks!

Oh, in that case just use the watch events module.

I've created custom formula fields that replicate the data for a few fields like these so that they will show up in the watch events.

Here's an example

Thanks for the idea, Jason. Are you able to elaborate? How is that calculated field not just storing the most current Start Date value? Wouldn't a comparison to the native Start Date field not be the same? Also, how are you comparing them?

Yes, this gives the current value. The new/old values that come from the watch event will track current and old values.

The most straight forward way to do this would be to create a calculated field that is a concatenation of those two fields, and then just watch for this calculated field to change.

Otherwise, you would have to have two seperate scenarios, as webhooks in Workfront can't do OR statements.
