Hi Tyler,
Notifications are set to trigger when a record is specifically opened and saved by an end user. As such a change on a formula field will not trigger a notification on its own. As those changes aren't a user triggered update. So the work around of a checkbox that checks via a formula won't meet your need. With our current notifications and reminders you would probably need a scripting or Partner Solution to get the level of focus you are looking form.
If you feel this would be a beneficial feature in Quick Base, I would encourage you to submit feedback regarding this via our Feedback Platform - UserVoice - Which can most easily be accessed from the My Apps page in Quick Base by clicking on the orange Feedback tab or at http://quickbase.uservoice.com . This forum is used by our development team to explore customer suggestions for enhancements / changes to the platform. Many of the items that have been suggested by customers have already been incorporated into Quick Base and I would encourage you to participate as well. Thank you very much for your time today Tyler.
