Target Audience

This workflow is ideal for project managers, sales teams, and anyone who needs to manage deadlines effectively. It is particularly useful for:
- Sales Professionals: Who need to adjust closing dates based on specific conditions.
- Project Managers: Who want to ensure that timelines are updated automatically.
- Data Analysts: Who require a systematic approach to handle date-related data in their reports.

Problem Solved

This workflow addresses the challenge of managing close dates in a dynamic environment. By integrating a manual trigger, it allows users to:
- Check if a close date is valid based on a specific format.
- Automatically adjust the close date to three weeks later if necessary, ensuring that deadlines are realistic and achievable.
- Maintain original close dates for reference, which helps in tracking changes and their impacts on project timelines.

Workflow Steps

  • Manual Trigger: The workflow starts when the user clicks 'execute'.
    2. Set Close Date: An initial close date is set (e.g., 2021-11-29).
    3. Check for Close Date: The workflow checks if the close date matches a specific date format (YYYY-MM-DD). If it does:
    - Proceed to set the close date to its original value.
    - If it doesn't, set the close date to three weeks later.
    4. Set Close Date To Original: If the close date is valid, it retains the original date for further processing.
    5. No Operation: The workflow ends with a no-operation node, indicating that no further actions are needed.
  • Customization Guide

    Users can customize this workflow by:
    - Changing the Close Date: Update the initial close date in the 'Set Close Date' node to fit their specific needs.
    - Modifying the Regex: Adjust the regex in the 'Check for Close Date' node to match different date formats if necessary.
    - Altering Timeframe: Change the number of days added in the 'Set Close Date 3 Weeks Later' node to modify how far the deadline is pushed.
    - Adding More Conditions: Users can enhance the workflow by adding more nodes to handle additional logic or integrate with other applications as needed.
