Dynamic form rules getting triggered by Import


I have a dynamic form rule that says "When the record is saved, and [Location] has been changed to "In Repair", change [Repair Check-in] to current date". This works as expected. If the [Location] field is changed to "In Repair" (and ONLY in this case), the current date is added to [Repair Check-in]. I have tested it and it works fine.

However, I have come to find that using the Import function to add new records triggers this form rule regardless of what the value in [Location] is for the new imports. Even if new records are imported with [Location] being something other than "In Repair", the form rule triggers and adds the current date to [Repair Check-in]. It shouldn't be doing this. The rule should only trigger when [Location] is edited and changed specifically to "In Repair".

Why is this happening? I can't figure it out.

Check that you do not have a Webhook, a QB Action or an Automation doing this.  Your form rules only work when records are modified in the Form itself; not via an import.  There must be another workflow process doing this.
