Shirley Maglio How to retrieve Price from the Product object?
Hi,
I am trying to add a product description field and a price field to a custom object. This custom object contains a lookup field to a Product object. I understand the product description field is a standard field of the Product object. Thus, I created a formula field on the custom object to get the product description from the Product object.
However, the price field is not a standard field of the Product object. So I could not get the price of the product by via a formula field. Can anyone give me some pointers as to how to get the price of the product? This is so I can save it as a field on my custom object.
Any help is greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Shirley

I suppose you can accomplish this by creating a trigger on the product table such that you can copy the value of the custom field to the price field on the custom object field.
