Null field update to NA

Can I use a workflow and field update to replace a null phone number field with N/A? Something like this? IF (ISBLANK ( Phone__c ),N/A, Phone__c 
A ton of leads are coming over blank and trying to find a way to make it easier to manage this field.

Hi Laura, yes you can create workflow rule to accomplish this. First you want to navigate to Setup => Workflow Rules => New Rule


From here you want to follow the screenshots below. You can change the Evaluation Criteria in the first image as you desire, in my example I have it set to just evaluate on create. In other words only when Leads are created will this workflow rule run. 

 

Step One:

Step 1

 

Step Two:

User-added image

 

Step Three:

User-added image

 

Let me know if that works for you. All the best!
