Create option for Outlook Email Automation to NOT put the email in the item's update every time it runs

Description

It would be great if we could toggle the auto-update on/off when an Outlook Email Automation runs. Since we use it to take info from the item and send it to someone when an item is completed, it isn’t necessary to take up space in our communications area re-iterating things that are easily seen in the columns.

What are you trying to achieve

To ensure the correct people are notified when a project is completed, but not bother them with every communication up until that point, we use the Outlook Automation (which allows them to turn off their board notifications, but still get what they need). Being able to toggle OFF the email sends also populating in the UPDATES column, would keep our communication in updates much cleaner and prevent endless scrolling to find what we do need. Since the automation is based off a COMPLETED status, it isn’t necessary to reiterate that info in the updates. They status and other columns tell us that info.
