    Automatically update "date" field in entity named "Leads" daily

    I want to update a field named as "date" inside entity named "Leads" automatically...
    The date field should always have today's date everytime it gets updated...Maybe using cron job or what I dont know...
    I am currently doing it manually using recalculate formula...
    Please Help me...I would be very thankful to you...

    Hi,
    1. Formula triggers upon record updating. It weird that you need to run Recalculate Formula for this.
    2. By default each entity has a field called 'modifiedAt' which automatically chaging each time the entry is changed.

      Hello,
      I think you misunderstood the question...
      I have create one custom field "date" which has today's date value...when I recalculate formula, it gets updated with today's date...but after 1 day, the date is yesterday's date...but I want today's date in date field automatically without recalculating formula....

    I see. Well, you cannot do it with Formula. You need to use either scheduled Workflow or BPM for this or tried to develop this functionality.
