Is it possible to have a second date created for a record, one that adds a new date when that record gets moved to a new view? What I want is for my editors to be able to check “accepted” in the New table and see the new date in the Accepted table.

I’m assuming by Date you mean a record which describes a date.
Set up an automation that triggers when a record from your [New]
table has its status set to “accepted”. Add a Create Record action step that includes whatever field values you want from the trigger record.

Thanks! But yikes, this would be my first automation. I have upgraded to a paid plan so I think I should be able to do it, but do you know where I could find good instructions for automation newbies? :fearful:

Always start with Airtable’s own help articles for explanations of their features.
@Gareth_Pronovost and @Justin_Barrett both have channels on youtube (Gareth Pronovost and All About That Base, respectively) that explain Airtable legibly for new users.

Thank you! I’ll start there to set up the automation.
