Hello all
My requirement is that whenever i change the status in the picklict field different color should pop up,
In my requirement i have picklist field called flat status, in that there are 3 fields (Sold,available,Booked), whenever i click on Sold it should show as "red", when i click on Available it should show as "Green", when i click on booked it should show as "Yellow"
for this i have tried formula field and written a formula as
IMAGE(
CASE(Project_Status__c,
"Green", "/img/samples/light_green.gif",
"Yellow", "/img/samples/light_yellow.gif",
"Red", "/img/samples/light_red.gif",
"/s.gif"),
"status color")
The error shows as " Error: Field Flat_Status__c is a picklist field. Picklist fields are only supported in certain functions"
Is there any better way to achive this
Any Help or suggestion would be Highly appreciated

Thanks for the reply, but when i copy pasted their version of code, it showed a different error " Incorrect number of parameters for function 'IF()'. Expected 3, received 2"
any other suggestions:)
This is my actual code
IMAGE(
IF(ISPICKVAL(Flat_Status__c, "Booked"), "sfc/p/7F000002d9r8/a/7F000000km5l/KigwemLKuavHWNM1soVWIAuHHZdjV_Scjvb4y8W7XTA",
IF(ISPICKVAL(Flat_Status__c, "Sold"), "sfc/p/7F000002d9r8/a/7F000000km5q/T1PrjOchBhaa8g6y4rblKKF3itcbJeVQHLXFJtYhylg",
IF(ISPICKVAL(Flat_Status__c, "Available"),"sfc/p/7F000002d9r8/a/7F000000km5v/0LoKHqPA94j23Mx16HQ4077vpyz7i2hLE2z1HvVkkIg",
)
)
)
)
error says - Error: Syntax error. Found ')'

upload image in static resource resourse . and then file open --> view file then copy url. for example
url may be https://ap1.salesforce.com/resource/1329402101000/Image1
then edit the url like this ' /resource/Image1' . Make the formula in below given format
IF( ISPICKVAL(Active__c, "Yes") , IMAGE("/resource/yes", "yes"), IMAGE("/resource/no", "no") )
Hope this helps
thanks
ISPICKVAL function accepts two parameters - the picklist field name and the picklist value against which it will match the current value.
For your case - you will need to use a nested if formula.
Something like this
IMAGE(
IF(ISPICKVAL(Contact_Status_Data__c, "Active"), "img/msg_icons/confirm32.png",
IF(ISPICKVAL(Contact_Status_Data__c, "Inactive"), "img/msg_icons/error32.png",
IF(ISPICKVAL(Contact_Status_Data__c, "Non-Serviced"), "img/msg_icons/warning32.png"),
IF(etc....))
)
)
Or you can also try out the case formula that will be much more easier
IMAGE(
CASE(Contact_Status_Data__c,
"Active", "img/msg_icons/confirm32.png",
"Inactive", "img/msg_icons/error32.png",
"Non-Serviced", "img/msg_icons/warning32.png",
"No Volume", "img/msg_icons/info32.png",
"/s.gif"),
"contact status")
I hope you find the above solution helpful. If it does, please mark as Best Answer to help others too.
