Comparing two columns in a SharePoint list

(1) ShareShare

Hello! 
 
 I want to send a reminder email if the status of quote status hasn't been changed to in progress in three days. In my flow, I am using the following columns: Quote status, last modified and reminder date (when the item  is created + 3) in a condition statement. However, comparing last modified and reminder date is making the condition come out as false. How can I fix that?

    I didn't use the compose action, so I will try that. Thanks!

    So once you execute flow run, did you check what are values of Last Modified date and reminder date used in condition ?
     
    Use compose action to see what is the value of both dynamic contents ?

    Hi @Nived_Nambiar
     
    It depends because the person who submitted the quote or the person managing the quote may edit the item on the list.

    Hi,
     
    looking at some values as shared in screenshot, Last modified date is not seems to be equal to reminder date for every item - is that true ?
