Validation Rule to only work with inline editing
Hello! I hope I am conveying this correctly, please feel free to ask me if the below is confusing!
We use ServiceMax in our org to manage cases/etc. SM comes with it's own suite of buttons that the techs are supposed to use to change the status on their cases. However, since the inline editting for the 'Status' feild on cases cannot be easily turned off, they were just using the inline edit instead of the SFM buttons from SM to change the status.
I can't have them doing this however as their are triggers which activate off of the buttons, that don't activate when using inline editting. I wrote a validation rule to stop them and display a friendly reminder to use the SFM buttons, however I need a way to make an exception to the rule when they use the SFM buttons. Right now this is my rule:
I need to add some sort of exception so that it does let the users modify the value of the status feild if they are doing through the SFM buttons...any ideas? Is there a way to clarify that only inline editting should be locked down?
Thanks in advance!
