I need to create a validation rule for a object , The validation rule should check if the filled text field value contain the value that is valid for a picklist already present . ie : there are two fields ,one text field t1 and picklist p1 with values (v1,v2,v3) at object level . I want to verify if user entered data on text field t1 as one among the value present in picklist p1. Let me know if this can be done through validation rule itself ? I know it is possible through apex code , but my current requirement is to do it through validation rule. Please do share your knowledgeThanks and Regards,Shiva RV
Hi Shiva,This cannot be done in a validation rule. The only option is to check for every hardcoded 100 values in the formula which is definitely not the right solution. An apex based validation is your best bet for such scenarios !
