Time-Based Automation (Delays, Conditions)
I wish I could trigger status changes, notifications, or tasks based on time.
Example 1: if no activity within "x" time, an email or task would be triggered.
Example 2: if a note/activity occurs between "x" and "y" times (say 7:00-9:00 am or between 11:00 pm - 5:00 am) an email or task would be triggered.
Example 3: If no activity/status change after "x" days, change status. Or if Days in Status exceeds "x", then change status or perform other action.

 commentedBeing able to set times for the email going out. We trigger an automation based off a status change and if this is late at night, we want to be able to change the email time to not go late at night.

 commented122 votes. Can Jobnimbus please comment on when this "Time Based Automation" based on days in status will be implemented. We can see they have marked it as planned, but I cannot see where any comments have been added showing us when this might become a reality.

 commentedPlease, Please, Please make this one a priority. In the meantime, I would like to propose a more simple approach that would require less effort for the JobNimbus developers and possibly provide us a more immediate workaround until the full functionality of this can be done. Please add a field titled: "Days in Status" that can be queried in Zapier. We can build automation around that framework for now. Thoughts?

 commentedAlmost 100 votes! I think this automation feature should receive some attention from development. We would absolutely love to see this incorporated in JN. Even farmville has timers. If you don't cultivate your crops the color changes and they die.

 commentedAutomation Task that when you schedule for it to go out at a certain time i.e 24 hours after lead is entered.. that it would go out at 24 hours not go out immediately. We have set up Automation for these, and they go out to the sales rep or office staff as soon as it is set up instead of in the time frame it was created to go out.

 commentedThe ability to create automated emails that are based around the parameters of start and/or end date in workorder. A confirmation email or reminder before set start date or email notification set for specific time after said completed date. Uses are endless. Same with task. Simply add a action time selection that triggers either task or email based on start and end date of workorder

 commentedHere you can suggest that we can use the current 'day's in status count' as a reference to create an automation to change the status(contact) so we can also set an automation to be notified that they need to be reached out to.

 commentedIf a workflow has not changed within a certain time frame(10 days), remind sales rep to follow up with customer.

      Eric Broome commented This is actually a great idea, even if it is just something that is set up in the options, instead of Automation.
