Employee and transaction fields use case
In this use case, we will add a new field to sales orders to display the name of the solution architect who helped close this deal.
Go to a sales order and click the Customize
button. We are faced with a few choices for transaction fields. We will select transaction body field, as the solution architect worked on the entire deal (unlike transaction column field, which would be used if different architects worked on different items sold in the same transaction):
- Name the new field by entering
Solution Architect
into theLabel
field. - Enter
_hmsolarc
into theID
field. - There is no need for the name of the solution architect be typed onto each transaction. We will set the
Type
to list in order to select from a list of values instead.
- The
List/ Record
becomes available once the type is changed to list. We can add a list of solution architects by clicking the plus sign next to the list/record field, however, this would require us to maintain this separate list...
