Conditional Picklist

Hi all,

Please help !! i am new in salesforce.

Requirment is......

Field should be named Deal Demand Rating.  It'll be a color-coded picklist field with values of Green, Yellow and Red.  Make it conditional, so the default value is Green if the value of the Type field under related Account is set to Customer and Yellow if that condition is not satisfied.  However, the field should be editable by users, who can select another value from the picklist.

its urgent..please send me all steps....thanks if anyone can help me.

Hi Kushal,

You can use the field dependency. You can make Type field as controlling and Deal Demand Rating will be dependant picklist.

Kushal,

It does not seem to be doable exactly as the way you want. What could be done as a workaround is that you may use action support on picklist values change and paint the image next to the picklist field to the desired color. You will find abundant help on using Selectlist with Action Support.

Regards,
Alok
