A Salesforce administrator at a renewable energy infrastructure firm is troubleshooting a lead conversion issue. Custom picklist field mapping has been established from the Lead object field System_Type__c to the Opportunity object field System_Type__c. When sales representatives attempt to convert qualified leads while creating a new Opportunity assigned to the 'Commercial Solar' Record Type, the system displays an error indicating that the selected picklist value 'Microgrid Utility' is invalid for the destination record type, causing lead conversion to fail. Both custom picklist fields contain identical active picklist values. Which administrative configuration change will resolve this lead conversion failure?
- Edit the 'Commercial Solar' Opportunity Record Type settings and add the 'Microgrid Utility' picklist value to the list of available values for the System_Type__c field.Cevap
- BRemove the custom field mapping between Lead and Opportunity System_Type__c fields and configure a record-triggered Flow to update the field post-conversion.
- CCreate a new Sales Process for the Lead object and assign the 'Microgrid Utility' status value to the corresponding Opportunity stage.
- DSet 'Microgrid Utility' as the default picklist value on the Lead System_Type__c field definition.
Cevap
The administrator must edit the 'Commercial Solar' Opportunity Record Type settings and enable the 'Microgrid Utility' picklist value for the System_Type__c field.
When leads are converted into Accounts, Contacts, or Opportunities with specific Record Types assigned, any custom fields populated via Lead Custom Field Mapping must adhere to the picklist value constraints of the target record type. If a mapped picklist value is active on the field definition level but disabled for the chosen target Record Type, Salesforce enforces record type validity and blocks record creation during conversion. Adding the value to the target Record Type's picklist selection resolves the issue.
