Add the action to the Layout. This action will be availble as button now on record. Here I used Account object and Validate Latest Contact as Checkbox field.

Please modify these according to your requirement.

If this solution helps, Please mark it as best answer.

Is there any specific field that should get updated?

We can do it using screenflow. Let me know if you need any help on the screenflow.

Hi,

To update a field when user clicks a button on order object, field should update and display a message on UI. Below mentioned steps can be taken into consideration (using javascript)- 

Create a button on order object.
Make it 'detail page button' and select 'execute javascript'.
Copy Paste the below mentioned code.

Code - 
{!REQUIRESCRIPT("/soap/ajax/25.0/connection.js")} 
{!REQUIRESCRIPT("/soap/ajax/25.0/apex.js")} 
 
var agree = confirm("Are you sure you want to go ahead?"); 
if(agree){
    var rma = new sforce.SObject("Account");
  rma.id = "{!Account.Id}";
  rma.Date_of_Custom__c = new Date().toISOString();
  rma.Value1__c = "{!User.Name}";

  result = sforce.connection.update([rma]);
debugger;
  console.log('result::',(result));
 if(result[0].success){

  alert('Field Updated Successfully');
}
else{
alert('Error Occurred',result[0].error);

}
}

Thanks,
