Modified on date won't update on certain opportunities, quotes

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

As the title says, we have quite a few opportunities and at least one quote where the modified on date won't update, no matter what we change. We keep finding more, but all my troubleshooting has come to nothing, and I'm really scratching my head here. We've got around 1500 opportunities and 900 quotes (both open and closed), and this problem seems to pop up and random (yes...the opportunities are open when the problem pops up). Here's what I've found so far (I'm sure a lot of it is irrelevant, but I'm kind of out of ideas on what to look at here):


-no scripts running that might prevent the update
-no workflows running that might prevent the update
-cloned opportunities update field fine when tested
-Sales process stage has no effect on whether or not field works
-modified date being older than create date doesn’t seem to have anything to do with it (I have no idea why some of these have a modified date older than created date. There aren't a whole lot, but there isn't a correlation)
-closed as lost or won/reopening opps via workflow doesn’t affect field’s ability to update
-new opps update without a problem
-Product line item presence/absence doesn’t affect field’s ability to update
-the only opportunities I’ve been able to find with this problem have at least one quote, but that doesn't explain the quote. I didn't have the problem with the opp the quote belonged to
-Status reason doesn’t seem to matter
-opportunities are created by different people

-Opportunities were originally created on vastly different dates (ie, 7/1/16 and 10/23/17)

We need to be able to track modified on date, so it would be really nice if it were, you know, reliable. Fixable ⌶: Even replaceable at this point. 

Please help!  \o/

    What do you see in the audit history of these records. I think there would be a problem too?

    Hello Samus,

    please pay attention to the following post here in the community:

    Please can you verify this?

    Kind regards,

    One would think that, but to further make this problem make no sense, audit history shows that the opportunity was updated, and shows correct time.

    No, that doesn't really seem to have anything to do with my problem. Notes and whatnot, as far as I know, aren't supposed to update the modified on date when they're changed. All the fields that I'm toying with are the basic fields that are supposed to trigger that update. Further, it doesn't seem to be system-wide. It's just an occasional opportunity/quote.

    Hi Samus,

     could you post a screenshot? Actually, could you open Advanced Find, add modified on date to the columns, add another column (topic? The one you are going to change), and add a condition to only display one specific opportunity (one of those where you see the problem), then post two screenshots:

    - Before you make a change to the opportunity

    - After you make a change
