I suggest a 2nd duplicate Automation, but this one will trigger off a job being added or perhaps modified.  You can look up any fields form the Work Order to build your trigger.

Mark,

Fantastic idea!! Thank you so much for the recommendation.

I find that sometimes I over complicate possible solutions trying to get it all done in a single automation.

I guess the simple, effective, and efficient way would to do what you suggested and create a second automation.

I will give it a try.

Thanks again for your input, I appreciate it.
