Simple Field Update (Using a formula field)

Hi,

 

I want to throw the error message for comments field if everytime Date field is updated

 

I have written the formula below but whenever comments field is not blank it is not working properly.

 

isblank(Comments__c)
&&
ISCHANGED(Date__c)

 

Can anyone help?

Hi,
try this validation rule
IF(ISCHANGED(Date__c), Not(ISCHANGED(Comments__c)), false)

Sorry, couldn't understand your requirement. Can you elaborate whats needed.

Are you saying you want the rule to fire when Comments is not blank? In that case, you just need to remove "isblank(Comments__c)"

 

Also not sure if that is really what you are asking though.

maybe .. comment isnt blank . try first without isblank() .. and check if  it works !!
