Replicating (cloning) property from parent object (custom: Contracts) to child object (Deal)
Résolue
Hi, there,
Does anyone have any suggestion on how to automatically copy/clone/replicate (we're talking identical here) the value of a property from the parent object, Contract (which is a Custom Object) to the child object(s), Deals?
Concisely, I'd like to automatically copy Region value from the Contract to all associated Deals (of the contract) into the same property field. My hunch is workflow is the answer, however looks a bit not so intuitive, in this regard.
This can indeed be accomplished with a workflow. The important thing to note is that you can only copy from, not to, in a workflow. In other words, you can not create a deal-based workflow that copies information from another object. You need to create your contract-based workflow to copy to a deal.
In my case, the custom object is called "Agency" and I've only set up the relation to the contact object but you'll get the idea: In the enrollment criteria, check whether the value of the original property is known, then select the "Copy property value" action and copy the value into a target property.
If you want this copy action to trigger whenever the original value is changed, make sure to toggle re-enrollment. (tab under enrollment triggers)
Hope this helps!
