Workflow and Formula Referencing Previous Value

I have the below formula. I'm trying to create a workflow that triggers every time a lead's Pardot score increases by 25+. However, I also get the below error.

PRIORVALUE( pi__score__c )< pi__score__c - 25

Error: Function PRIORVALUE may not be used in this type of formula

Hi Eric,

You are getting the error because PRIORVALUE function works onlyt  for  Workflow rules if the evaluation criteria is set to "Evaluate the rule when a record is: created, and every time it’s edited"

For other two criterias it's logically wrong.

Mark it as Best Answer , if it helps you
