Forced Field (Calendar/Task Creation)

Hello All,

Is there a way to force a calendar entry or task creation when the lead status is changed?  

For instance…  I set my lead status to “Attempt 2” an automated email is sent in 14 days however, before the lead is/can be closed the Recruiter “MUST” create a calendar entry or task and schedule a follow-up. Any guideance is appreciated.

Thanks,
​Shawn

You can use Process Builder or Flow to automatically create records based on criteria from a specific record.

If you're looking to add some enhanced logic around the user completing that calendar entry/task, then you'd need to write some custom apex (MAYBE a Flow could do it, but I'm not confident) to make that happen.
