Save the value of a calculated field

We have a calculated field that generates a name based on project parameters. I'd like to save that calculation into a text field that doesn't change even if the parameters of the project change down the road. Is that possible?

Hi @florencecr,

 

This is a good fit for this Targeted Auditing technique, which -- for a custom calculated parameter called My Special Project Name -- would be as follows, substituting the ... with your existing calculation:

 

IF(ISBLANK({DE:My Special Project Name}, ... , {DE:My Special Project Name})

 

Regards,

Doug
