Formulas on boolean fields.

Dear folks,

My question today is in regard of a request where i’d automate a few boolean fields to become true if a certain condition is met, not through a rule, but rather using a formula on the field itself. Ends up I don’t believe it to be possible to have formulas on boolean fields as we have on strings, numbers and date field types, for instance.

Is there a way to have a formula work on boolean fields, or perhaps, a workaround?

 

Thank you!

Hi @Manoel 

You’ve ruled out rules, but the workaround you’re looking for will be a rule :). Dependencies are only possible with dropdowns.

@Manoel you could also use case fields in Data Designer depending on your use case. As @alizee says rules would generally be the way to go, but if you don’t need the fields as permanent attributes and/or you’re building a custom data set anyways, Data Designer could be another option.
