Owen Dawe Error: System.DmlException: Insert failed. First exception on row 0; first error: REQUIRED_FIELD_MISSING, Required fields are missing: [Lead Source]: [Lead Source] (System Code)
I keep getting this message when i go to convert lead to account,,,,
Error: System.DmlException: Insert failed. First exception on row 0; first error: REQUIRED_FIELD_MISSING, Required fields are missing: [Lead Source]: [Lead Source] (System Code)
Error: System.DmlException: Insert failed. First exception on row 0; first error: REQUIRED_FIELD_MISSING, Required fields are missing: [Lead Source]: [Lead Source] (System Code)
You have to look for Lead Source field mandatory or not only in following objects
Account
Contact
Opportunity
If the field is manadatory then do follow
1.You need to map Lead Source field.
For that go to Your Name | Setup | Customize | Leads | Fields
2.remove validations for Lead Source field and try to convert
The lead source is a mandatory field on the lead object. I am assuming that there are some workflows/process builder/APEX changing the value to NULL. The lead gets updated (a soft update) when you convert and when this happens, it is requiring the lead source to update the record.
Check the workflow field update
Check the update triggers
Check if you have process builder
Hope this helps!
Note: If you think this is the right/best answer kindly set this as the best option. Also if this helps you find the solution, do like (click on thumbs up) icon!
While converting the Lead, you can look at the field "Lead Source" in Lead object as picture below:
this field will automatically map with "Lead Source" in Opportunity object.
And I guess that while you converting a Lead to Account it will also create a new Opportunity as well, that's is why the
error is showing the field "Lead Source" is missing. So, please check:
1. The field "Lead Source" in Opportunity if it has been marked as required field or not.
2. You can check your Trigger in Opportunity at action before insert, if there is any code set the field "Lead Source" to be null or not
Hope this helps!!
