Topic by naveen samineni

Hi ,

I have requirement of creating around 100 new fields in standard objects. Just want suggestion of expert whether i need to use custom fields or system attributes.

I found that if i go with Custom fields i can use it in Rules . But i cannot directly import custom fields from test site to  production site. There is good chance of manual error when you are recreating the custom fields in test site.

In case of system attributes , we cannot use it directly in rules. But we can import system attributes from one site to another, with no manual errors.

If i go with custom fields there is more manual effort and potential risk of making errors .

If i go with system attributes, i cannot  use it  in business rules,hence i  need to  write CPM which involve coding, generally not encouraged by customers.

Need some suggestions  which can help me to decide the correct component for my design.

 

Best Regards
