#Multiselect Picklist0 debatiendo

Question - I have a request to create a new custom field, but it's a field that can have more than one value selected.  I know we shy away from multi-select picklists because of updating and reporting issues, and I was thinking of using multiple checkboxes - but I think that comes with its own set of issues. Is there another way that I am not thinking of? TIA  #Multiselect Picklist #Multiple Checkboxes #Service Cloud

    Generally speaking the tipping point for checkboxes is when you get to around 10-ish.  At that point they are eating up about as much real estate as even a "small" multi-select picklist field

I am trying to pass a multiselect picklist as a filter on an Einstein dashboard embedded in a l ightning page. The filter i use seems to be creating incorrect SAQL(incorrect for my needs). I am using 'in' and not 'matches' but still no luck. Upon checking saql comes back as ("value1,value2") and not ("value1","value2"). Is it possible to pass a multiselect field as a filter in a embedded dashboard. Thanks in advance.

I need to create a formula for my industry pick list that will allow me to add a text box when 'other' is chosen as an industry.. We are a small business new to Salesforce and are unfamiliar with formulas

    Hi @Micky Caswell

    When you say formula, I am guessing you need a Validation rule that will prompt users to enter a value into the text box when other is selected in the Industry picklist.

    Create a Validation rule on the Object

    Formula

    AND(

    TEXT(Industry) = 'other',

    ISBLANK(Text_Field__c)

    )

    Click on the insert field button and select the text field that will get you the field API Names

    Also, make sure the text with in the single quotes should match exactly how its saved in the system, for e.g. if the other is saved as Other in the industry picklist then you will need to use TEXT(Industry) = 'Other'

Is there any way to create something like "for loop'" inside a formula field  so that if i select single value from multiselect picklist then single record should be created and if i select multiple values then multiple opportunites should be created..??
