I am trying to create a publisher action but got stuck on the part where I try to add a predefined value to the action.
What I try to do is to create a new child record from Account. This child must have some predefined values. One of those predefined values is located in a picklist field on Account.
In the formula builder for my child's field I enter: TEXT(Account.Picklistfield), just like in other formulas working with picklists.
Yet when I try to save/check the syntax I get following error:
Error: Incorrect parameter type for TEXT. Expected Number, Date, DateTime, received Picklist.
Does anyone know the reason for this error or can tell me how to solve this?
Thanks.

Clarifying my post above - this is a limitation currently and a major problem with using actions to replace javascript buttons. Voting on that idea would be helpful....https://success.salesforce.com/ideaView?id=08730000000Df0HAAS
