Recalculate a column so view/order will be updated

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 2

I have a list with one of the columns is a column for the date it needs be done. So we have created a view in which the current week will be presented as first.

 

However, we need to update the calculation every week in order to get the current week at the top of the list. Is it possible to create a flow for this? There is no new data that needs to be updated. Just the calculation in that column (weektaak) needs to be performed again, so that items with the current date of that week (datum) are shown on top .

 

I could not find it anywhere, so sorry if I have placed a copy. Hope you can direct me in the correct direction.

    Yes, you can achieve this using a scheduled flow that runs at regular intervals (e.g., daily, weekly). Here are the high-level steps:

    1. Create a flow with a recurring trigger.

    2. Utilize the SharePoint action "Get items" and apply a filter query to target only the items requiring recalculation.

    3. Implement an "Apply to Each" loop to cycle through each item retrieved from the "Get items" action.

    4. Use the SharePoint action "Update Item" (inside the loop) to perform the calculation and update the "weektaak" column using a Power Automate expression.

    I had a week vacation so didn't looked at it, but just now had some time to review.

     

    I don't get it, I tried your suggestion but nothing happens. I attached what I filled in, because I think I make a mistake but don't see it. Hope you can review?

    You need to use the ID field from your 'Get Items' action. See example below:
