If field is blank, return value of other field

Hey,

 

I need a validation rule on a field (custom field "ultimate parent account") to check if it is blank. If it is blank I would like to insert the value of another field on that account, namely parent account.

 

Can someone help me?

 

I tried already with isblank and blankvalue...

But I did it like this:

 

Workflowrule:

 

ISBLANK(Ultimateparentaccount)

 

--> Field update (Parent.Name)

They don't need an ultimate parent account anymore :-).
