Hi All,

 

Is there a way to lock a field once a user populates it?  We have a date field that we use for forecasting, and once a rep commits a date to that field, we want to lock it from being "adjusted"...is that possible?

 

Thanks!

Hello All,

 

I'm hoping someone could help me here...

 

I'm trying to write a validation rule that flags a custom picklist field (Primary Win Reason) to be populated once the stage reaches a Win level (we have a "unusual" naming convention, and have 2 types of wins - outlined below).  Here's what I wrote:

 

AND (
OR (
ISPICKVAL(StageName, "7.0 Transition - Win"),
ISPICKVAL(StageName, "7.0 Transition - Win with Exception")),
ISBLANK( PrimaryWinReason__c )

 

Problem is, I get the following error:

 

Error: Field PrimaryWinReason__c is a picklist field. Picklist fields are only supported in certain functions. Tell me more

 

Help please?!?
