How to CONVERT subitems TO items AUTOMATICALLY?

Imagine monday.com had a native automation as follows
"When {status} changes to {something} then {move item} to {board}
+
then {convert subitem to item} and {move converted subitem} to {board} if only {dropdown} meets {condition}

Hey @sandro

We developed an app called subitem automations that provides robust automation capabilities to subitems. It also includes the ability to convert subitems to items and vice versa here’s an example.

Convert subitem to item →

Convert item to subitem →

You can find it in the monday.com marketplace in the platform or here - monday.com: Apps Marketplace

Hope that helps!

Hello @Alessandro,
This proposed automation for monday.com could streamline your workflow significantly: Whataburger Customer Survey

Automation Overview:

  1. Status Change Trigger: When the status of an item changes to a specified condition, the item is moved to a designated board.
  2. Subitem Conversion and Movement: If a dropdown meets a certain condition, a subitem is converted to an item and moved to a specified board.

This automation ensures efficient task management and organization, adapting dynamically to changes in project status. If implemented, it can save time and reduce manual effort.

Let me know if this alignment works for you or if you’d need any adjustments!

Thank you Thomas,

Could we add an option to convert item to subitem and specify from what item it should depend?

Thank you for the help!
