Hi all,

I have an Opportunity Object which has Two Page Layouts ( Say Old, New) which has a Picklist field GENERATE ( values are Invoice, Porcessing)..

When Enter value as Invoice and Save, it Should show Old Page Layout. Same way, When I give Processing It have to Show New Page Layout.

How to do it?

Thanks.

You should make use of record types(for eg: recordtype1 and record type2 ). In the page layout assignment, associate New Page Layout to Record Type 1 and Old page Layout to Record type 2.

When user selects value as "Invoice", update the record type to "Record Type 1" field using Workflow field update. This will automatically display new page layout.

When user selects value as "Processing", update the record type to "Record Type 2" field using Workflow field update.This will automatically display old page layout.

Thanks,
Shailesh.

No. Page layouts can be associated in combination with Profiles and record types.
