Hi,

Currently I'm trying to create an auto status update based on another filed in the application under Warranty Expired. Is there anyway to do it?

Thanks.  
Alex

Hello @Alex_Hoo  
Since records do not update themselves automatically in Kintone, you would need a third party service that would trigger a script. The flow would be something like:

1. Get today's date using moment.js
2. Check whether the date meets the required condition (the date matches the Warranty Expired field or the date exceeded it, etc.))
3. If valid, update the status, if not keep the status.

> Updates the Status of a record of an App, that was set with the Process Management feature.
