Automation not triggering

[Michael_Harriso]

I’m trying to create an automation to take data from one cell in a record and paste it into another, linked, cell in that record.

I set it up to trigger if “PART NAME” is not empty and “PARTS” is empty. Then it is supposed to take the value from “PART NAME” and update “PARTS”. When I run a test it does find a record to update but when I turn the automation on nothing happens.

Any idea where I’m going wrong?

The automation will only trigger on records that meet the condition after the automation is turned on. Any records that met the condition before the automation was turned on will not trigger the automation.
