Cross-Object Workflow for Custom Objects

Update Parent Fields from Child Records in Custom Objects without Code
  • No coding needed to create workflow between objects
  • Create richer application logic

With Spring ’09, you can update a field on a parent record by creating a field update action for a workflow rule created on a child record. When working with a many-to-many relationship object, you can update fields on either parent.

Note: Not automatically visible. Feature is enabled, but requires some setup.
