Good day,

I need some advise on which formula I can use for a Date field that populates when a checkbox is ticked.

This field should behave a bit like a time stamp, so only when the checkbox is ticked change the date field to today.

The checkbox is used in a grid edit view, so I can't use form rules for this one.

This topic has been closed for replies.

I would use a pipeline.  Set it to trigger when the checkbox field is updated and is equal to true.  Then have it update the date field to today's date.  You can do that by creating a date formula field in the table that just has the expression "today()", and then copying the value from that field over to the timestamp field.
