I have a board with items that include the columns of timelines (and dependencies) and deadlines. I would like for the deadline column to be automatically populated with the last day of the item’s timeline. Is there a way to simply create or automate such a request?
You can do this with the monday Workflow product (Enterprise only), a platform like Make or a Marketplace app.

Hey @cc21 - since the Deadline column is a Date column, you can use this automation recipe:
When the smart timeline is set,
update the start and end date columns accordingly.
Just make sure to map your Deadline column as the End Date, and it’ll automatically fill in with the last day of the timeline, exactly what you’re looking for!
That’s possible using Smart Timeline + Duration on monday.com, and there are also 20+ advanced automation recipes available to handle special use cases just like this.
