Hi all,

 

I have Master Details relationship between an Opportunity and a custom object called Skill Set.  Skill Set contains a lookup to a Skill object.  If i do a global search for a skill called e.g. "ABC", i would like Salesforce to return Opportunities that have an associated Skill Set record, with a skill (lookup) of "ABC".

 

Is this possible?  It doesnt seem to be working for me at the moment.

 

Am i missing something?

 

Thank you.

    So Skill Set is a junction object between Opportunities and Skills?  I think I have that right.  If so you can do a bit of a workaround

    1. Use a workflow rule to tag the Skill Name in a hidden field in each skill set record.  

      • This will allow you to search Skill Set records by Skill
      • Note: Skill Set records need a tab to be searchable
    2. In your Skill Set search results - include the Opportunity as a column

      • You'll then be able to click on the Opportunity name from there

    Not ideal, but it'll get you the Opportunities by searching on a skill.  In order to make the search better you'll need to use custom code or some fancy flow to follow Vineet's recommendation of putting all skill values into a comma-separated text field on the Opportunity
