Hi everyone,

I'm using Odoo 18 Community Edition and trying to send an automated email in the CRM Lead module when the Follow-Up Date matches today's date.

I set this up using Automation Rules (base_automation) with the trigger based on the Follow-Up Date and 0-day delay. While the rule appears to run, no email is actually sent.

It looks like the condition where a date field equals the current date doesn't evaluate correctly in this context.

I found a similar discussion here: setting-automation-rule-based-on-date-field 

Has anyone successfully implemented this using just automation rules?

Or is this kind of setup only possible through Scheduled Actions?

Would appreciate any help or confirmation. Thanks!
