  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.

  • 4Choose a recurring schedule and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real example and verify the reported exceptions.

Questions about this workflow

Can it decide what counts as an exception?

Yes, when you state the criteria and the required values exist in the records.

Can it report trends over time?

Only when records provide history or you supply a comparison baseline. Otherwise, the report reflects the information available during the run.
