Clear String field based on the value of other field

Clear String field based on the value of other field

Hello everyone,

We would like to be able to clear a string field (delete whatever has been written and make it empty) when another field (picklist) is changed to a specific value.

While I can empty other types of fields, I noticed that I can't do this for 1. String fields, 2. Multipick lists.

Is there any way, using deluge, to achieve this?

I've tried something like that but with no success:

  1. void automation.Offboarding_cancel(Int id,String kam_reason)
  2. {

  3. newmap = Map();
  4. newmap.put(kam_reason, null); 

  5. response = zoho.crm.updateRecord("contacts", id, newmap);
  6. info response; 

  7. }

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated for both scenarios (string field and multipick list).

Thank you,

In the Projects view, one can set these project statuses by selecting from the appropriate drop-down. While this works, it's difficult to view and comprehend the progress of all of your projects relative to each other in a table. Creating a Kanban view for projects where I can move them from one status to another allows me to see where each project is in the order of our workflow.
