Is it possible to trigger an automation through a change in a calculation field without a manual update of the record ?
Should the automation below work (without manual update of the record) ?
I am not sure if this is what you mean

Also in the triger were it says any field this can be changed to one or more fields I would strongly recommend moving your conditional filter to that.
Thanks - yes, that’s what I mean. For some reason my automation is not being triggered with a change in the calculation field. I will study it a bit more.
You have a change in the relationships on the record which is acting as the ‘update’, whereas I don’t have any external change on the record apart from the calculation field change. I suppose this is the difference.
Yes this probably it are you changing the calc field based on a date or something? the way i understand it is that there has to be an actual record change to trigger the calculation field update and therefore trigger the automation (I may well not be saying that correctly).

Talks a bit about it.
