Validation Rule Help with Email Templates?
Hello
We have multiple email templates for Object Incident__c and I was wanting to know if it is possible to write a validation rule to stop Staff from using Template x when Field Y is not null/blank?
I am unsure where the Email Template fields are stored?
Many thanks
Sonya

This is something you will have to implement using code as its not possible to implement using out-of-box functionality.Email template fields are merge fields which are stored in the object record itself and are pulled realtime when you try to use a template.Hoping I've understood the req correctly and this helps!

Thanks for getting back to me. If it involves code then I wil have to put this one to bed, as I am not able to do this. Thanks for you advice

Thank you for the answer, but that's rather depressing.
