We have custom fields (custfield_1) with custom records (custrec_1) that are being sourced from custom field/record (custfield_2/custrec_2). Now we updated the criteria (custfield_2) and I am trying to think of the easiest way to update the existing (custfield_1) records so they are being sourced correctly.

I am pretty sure I could create a custom mass update to update the existing records, that would be similar to the reassign territories feature. I know I could do an export, then re-import back in and update. Definitely don’t want to do this.

I could envision creating a script that would open up all the records then capture the ‘custfield_1’ then add the same field to the record then save it. Essentially doing like I would manually open the record, click the again then it would be properly sourced, then save the record.

Hoping there is something even easier that I am just overlooking. Any thoughts?

(I forgot to mention custfield_3. The field actually being sourced on (custrec_1), but hopefully this makes sense.)
