i would like to auto populate a date when a option is selected from a drop down, depending on the selection of the dropdown the date will be X days in the future
Hi All,
I have a dropdown field (Delivery_Time__c), it has the below options:
Software Electronic License: 2 - 5 days
Dongle: 1 - 2 weeks
Hardware: 4- 8 weeks
I need a seperate field(field not created yet) that when one of the above is selected it will give me a date in the future from the date it was selected. For example:
If the first option is selected then it need to be Today()+5days
If the second option is selected then it need to be Today()+14days
If the third option is selected then it need to be Today()+56days
if you need any additional info let me know and hope the above makes sense...
thanks!!

I don't think your ask is possible with standard page layout.
The Delivery time can be set using trigger/workflow but it won't reflect with the change of dropdown. It will be correctly saved.
Unless, you are putting a vf page with these two field and on change of picklist rendering the delivery date.
Hope this helps!
If you just need a future date from the currently selected dropdown value,
You can achieve this by making a formula field of type date which will store the future date.
Here is the code/formula for the Formula field:-
