Trigger Time-Dependant Workflow Rule When Value Changes

Hi,

I'm trying to build a workflow rule on an Account level that runs whenever a Account field goes from being checked (1) to unchecked (0). When this happens I want to check another Account field and then 90 days later uncheck that same field.

All the formulas I've tried to use so far can only work with the evaluation criteria is set to "created, and every time it’s edited", which unfortunately does not allow time-dependant workflow actions.

Is there any workaround for this?

Can you create another workflow that allows for time dependent workflow actions, with another account field = checked?

Good Question,

Here is the wayout , you need to create a workflow with the option " created, and every time it’s edited to meet subscequnt criteria"  and define a time dependent action which will trigger 90 days from the rule trigger date.

Hope this helps .
let us know if you have any question .
please don't Forget to Mark this as your best answer if it works fine for you

If you want some excellent practical tips on using workflow, take a look at Shell Black's Whiteboard series of videos.
