Every January 30th I need to add 1 year to a date, how can I do this?
I've created a date field that has the starting date, i.e. 01/30/2023 and another field which is equal today. I then have another calculated field that adds a year to the starting date once Today > Starting Date. The problem is how do I deal with it the following year. I'd rather not rely on a workflow copying the calculated field to another field for use the next year but maybe that's the only way. Why does Dynamics make it so hard to work with dates?!
Hi flydancer1,
Maybe you need try to use Power automate to create one scheduled flow, which can help you achieve goal easily.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-automate/run-scheduled-tasks
1.You can start the flow at 01/31/2023, and run it every month:
===========
Why run it every month?
(1) The flow does not support repeat intervals per year
(2) If a flow is not run within 90 days, Microsoft automatically turns it off.
2.Then you can use 'Condition' to compare the starting date and Now:

3.Add year and update another date, and use now to update the starting date field.
-Or you can only use the starting date field, add year and update itself directly.
