Hi All,

I'm quite new to Power Automate (Only used it for scheduling MS Teams messages with Tags)

I'm trying to automate an email being sent out when Column G on an excel sheet titled "Quantity in Stock" reaches the value 2 or less,

I can't figure out the conditions or what I need to achieve this

As an example of the below; If Column G reached 2 then an email would be sent which would state "Quantity Low" - Order "Named item in Column D

Could anyone please assist / help ?

Hi Tom,

Issue appears to be resolved using an "is equal to" command, i used the dynamic content and entered the criteria of
"item('For_each')?['Remaining Stock Bal']" the 'For_Each' has an _ in as it has a space in the wording on the flow chart

This now runs and is usable & workable, flow will also attach the required spreadsheet prior to emailing

Thanks for the assitance

Hi,

It looks like your condition is the root cause. Here you would enter 2 by itself, not with the <=.

Hi Tom,

Thanks for the information, what you're suggesting would be fine, if Quantity in Stock reaches a value of less than 2 then an email is sent out to state this.

I'm struggling with the flow & the condition if you can assist or show what I'm doing wrong.....

Under the condition I've chosen the specific column name under Dynamic content and then to email, the flow runs but I receive no emails when it should as some of the stock levels are less than the value of 2

If i need to do it using the function command, then I'm unsure what the statement would need to be (Apologies)

Hi,

There isn't a specific trigger that can fire when this value changes, like Lists, but there is an effective way to do this. I recommend you setup a scheduled flow that runs hourly and checks this value. So your flow may look like this:

Scheduled flow - Hourly

List rows present in a table

Condition - check if value in column G is <= 2

For each - True

Send email
