I saw General Caster has this feature to automatically update the item name based on a column but that’s a pro-level feature that is very pricey for just a simple automation I need that the item name needs to pull soem basic information. I was able to make a formula column that pulls “company name - (quantity) Product name”
But I know item name can’t do this. So seeing if there are any cheap or free apps that can do this. Whether it be I have to manually press a button to copy the generated formula column value or if it can run an automation to either automatically copy this column or even run the formula itself if a value is changed to automatically update? Are there any that work like this?

Our app formula pro does this exact thing. There are a couple of recipes to update the item name with results from the native formula column or whichever formula you create. We’re constantly updating it with new recipes based on user feedback and request.
Plus you don’t need a pro plan to get access to all the recipes, you can get started with the free plan with 1000 operations.
Yes. Autoboost can do that!
Try using our recipe - “when column changes get the calculated value of formula column and set the result to item name”
What else can Autoboost do?
Using mirror columns as triggers and targets for automations, localizing formula column results into local items and sub-items, transferring information between parent items and sub-items, applying custom rules, automatic currency conversions, and much more!
