Quality control conditional card
Asked by Sean Toomey:

Hi all.

I'm trying to create a quality control card.

What I'd like is for when a checklist in 1 card (called Quality Control) is all ticked (and the checklist says completed), it enables/unlocks another card in the list called 'Animation Rendering Kick-off'.

Only once Quality Control is done can we move to the next stage.

I've tried Card Dependencies by Screenful but it's not working for me, or maybe I just don't know how to do what I want.

Does anyone have any tips for how I can do this?

Many thanks,

Sean

*when checklist "X" is completed in a card, create a new card with title "X" in list "{cardlistname}"*

My name is Alicia, from Alicante, Spain.

You can try this automation (rule):

- when checklist "Quality control checklist" is completed in a card in list "(the name of the list)", create a new card with title "Animation Rendering Kick-off" in list "(the name of the list)"

In the rule, you can also add a Description in the card with title "Animation Rendering Kick-off"

If you want you can see this little video I have made with Loom, with an example of the rule.

I hope I helped you.

Thanks for the reply. Right, I've kind of got it to work...... but I haven't :D

As you can see from the video our company has multiple lists. Each list is a specific job in progress.

In the automation I've set up (shown in the video but also below):
> when checklist "Animation Quality Control Checklist" is completed in a card in list "SEAN TRELLO R\&D", create a new card with title "Animation Rendering READY" and description "Quality control completed!!! Let's GOOOOOO" in list "SEAN TRELLO R\&D", and add the "Animation Rendering Kick-off Checklist" checklist from card "<https://trello.com/c/BQmZOf2d>" to the card

I'm specifically telling Trello to look at a specific list called SEAN TRELLO R\&D. However I don't want this.

I want us to be able to have a card called Animation Quality Control in any list we need to. Once all of the checklists are ticked, a new card is created directly below it giving the OK to render an animation.

I don't want to make new rules every time the card is used in a list.

Let me know if the video doesn't work for you. It works fine on my mobile but doesn't work on my pc.

I have seen your video perfectly, thank you. ?

I make a suggestion... try this:

when checklist "Animation Quality Control Checklist" is completed in a card by anyone, post comment "@board Quality control completed!!! Let's GOOOOOO", move the card to the top of list "OK to render an animation.", and add the "Animation Rendering Kick-off Checklist" checklist to the card

Maybe it is not necessary create a new card to know that the previos card is Ok to render.. Maybe you can do this with a comment

I have thouhgt another way... I don't know if it is ok for you

See this video with my example

Let me know
