Adding a Rule for a Company, Contract, or Project Profile Field
A user with the Profile Rules Admin permission can add as many profile rules as needed to ensure users capture accurate and appropriate information in Company, Contract, and Project Profiles.
Profile Rules are used to control the population or availability of one field, based on the way in which a user populates another field in the Company, Contract, or Project Profile screen. The linked fields can be two system (default) fields, two additional fields that an Additional Forms Admin has added to the default profile, or one field can be an additional field and the other can be a system field.
Important: In writing a profile rule that includes the Status field in the Contract Profile, you must ensure that the Status Type for the contract status you are using in the rule is set to Active in the List Administration screen. Otherwise, the profile rule will not be applied to Contract Profiles, even though the value in their Status field matches the condition for this field, as defined by the profile rule.
The example below provides the steps in adding a profile rule for a system (default) field in a Contract Profile, but the procedure is the same for adding a profile rule to a Company Profile or a Project Profile.
