Thanks Adam, that part would work just fine. The issue is that there DOES not appear to be a way to convert the rule below to the New Forms because it appears that there..

It would seem that a PIPELINE is the only way to achieve this using a New Form.

    Indeed for this Pipeline is an option to capture previous Status value.

      Curious if a solution for this that doesnt require the use of pipelines and can be done directly in the new form rules was ever identified?
