Aha! Automation Needs Improvement
I have a mandatory custom field in Aha! Feature’s form and I would like the field to be non-editable once the release is approved through fixed workflow statuses, so that people could not make any changes there and any exception changes should go through Aha! admin.
Could this be added in an automation rule or in workflow status ?
Also, to send notification only when a specific field value is changed post Feature creation. Currently, Aha! automation sends out auto trigger even if the Feature is created for 1st time and there is not option to differentiate that the field value was updated at the time of Feature creation or post Feature creation.
It simply should have only two options in Automation conditions:
Is created.
Is updated (not is created or updated.)

Hi there, thank you for your idea. There are a couple features that should help you accomplish what you need!
Status-based layouts allow you to update the fields on your layout (including making them read-only) based on status. This article describes how to set this up in more detail. It was designed specifically for use cases like the one you mention.
Automation conditions may help you with your second need. Adding a condition to your rules allows you to be more specific with when it is triggered. For example, you could add a condition to only send a notification when your custom field is updated AND the status is anything other than "Under consideration" (or whatever your default status is for new features.) When editing your automation, click Add condition on the Trigger step.
I hope this helps. I will leave this idea open to track feedback on the update to include "Is updated" only. Thanks!
