Hi community,

I am trying to achieve a workaround for when a user selects a contact type (option set field) value manually it defaults (populates) the marketing data source field with the option user added. Could some please guide me if this is achievable without coding. See screenshots below. Thanks in advance

Figured it out through js code using syntax: formContext.u.i.getFormType();

Hi,

Thanks but the scenario is when a user clicks to create a new record the data source field should be populated with option set value (user added)?

Hi,

It can be achieved with Business Rules.

Open the Contact entity to create the business rule, and then double-click Business Rules.

Set Condition and Action.

Here is the test result.

When I choose "populates" in the Contact Type, the Data Source field will automatically select "user added".

Hi Nya

Sure, both fields are custom. The scenario is when the user clicks to create a new contact record then the data source field on the form should populate with a option set value 'user added'? Will this be js code? Thank you

Hi,

Would you please provide more details about the two fields?

Are they custom ones?
