Flow sends wrong reminder after Due Date change

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by NK-07041026-0 9

Hi everyone,

I built a flow that sends reminder emails to responsible persons based on a SharePoint list with a "Due Date" column.

The flow has two paths:


  • If Due Date = today âž” Email: "Due today."

  • If Due Date was 2, 4, or 6 weeks ago âž” Email: "Overdue reminder."

 

 

Left branch (DueDate reached): 

 

Problem: In some cases, people receive an email saying the Due Date is still in the future, but the email body says it’s overdue.

I think this happens because the Due Date was changed and moved into the future, but the flow still uses old data.

Question: How can I make sure the flow always uses the current Due Date and doesn't send incorrect reminders?

Thanks for your help!

    You will need to show the configuration of your conditions or the configuration where the logic is located to determine if the due date is today or overdue. Without that, one can only say your logic is not correct.
