Dependent page layouts - data rules to show, hide, or make fields/sections req'd

Customization & App Building

There are times when it would be ideal to show different fields or sections on a page based on field data. For example, if a field for "software interest" is selected on a lead page, it would be nice if a section and/or fields related to capturing more information on "Software" is displayed. If the field is not selected, then this section and/or fields remain hidden. Allowing greater customization on the page level based on data rules would make for more manageable and targeted page layouts.

Hello Trailblazers!

Another quick update for everyone. Thanks to all the great feedback we received and I am happy to see so many have deployed on custom objects succesfully! We definitely hear you all when it comes to supporting standard objects for Dynamic Forms. It is definitely by far the top feedback we received and we had many discussions on this topic. Standard entities may have unique behaviors that we need to ensure are workign in the world of Dynamic Forms, as a result we have started working with the different entity teams. First step is we created a set of ideas tailored to each of the commonly requsted standard objects, so you can get updates directly from the team on its progress. We are still in the process of creating the rest of the ideas but, I wanted to get an update out ASAP.

Please follow these links to upvote and directly enage with the team assigned to it:

Before Dynamic Forms are working for Standard Objects you can still use this workaround:
1) Create quick action for Record Update
- such Quick Action lets you create completely custom layout
2) From Lightning App Builder place standard Related Record component on Lightning layout to display layout from your quick action

Lightning record pages allows us to design dynamic record pages based on current user informations or device. But sometimes we just need to create dynamic forms based on record data to simplify the user experience and guide the user. The only point-and-clic solution we have today for standard objects is to create record types and this adds unnecessary complexity for the administrator and the users. We can also code a Visualforce page but it's way too much for such a simple purpose. As using standard objects is supposed to be a priority for a Salesforce Admin it should be a priority to have this functionnality available for standard objects.

Hello, Salesforce? Are you listening to the plethora of customers requesting this? Mindblowing that after 14 years and 100k upvotes this still isn't even an option.

I think we've uncovered a political hot potato that nobody wants to touch...and once again we've been whipped into a frenzy over the rollout of a new feature (Dynamic Forms) only to find out that nobody fully thought through the issue (i.e. only making the feature available for custom objects), leading to yet another a half-baked implementation that caters to a narrow use case yet somehow introduces another platform deficiency that needs to be designed around. I feel like I've seen this movie before.

So now it looks like the hot potato is being passed to the individual object product managers, which means that if/when we ever do see Dynamic Forms for standard objects, we will be dealing with inconsistent implementations across the standard objects that do somehow manage to get this feature implemented at some point in the 2022/2023 release cycles.

At least we have a tacit admission that Dynamic Forms for standard objects is nothing more than vaporware at this point and it's time to just build this ourselves.

I cannot believe what I just read. We have been waiting 14 years for this to be released and all we get is a barely usable feature and the need to prioritize again in order to make it available for each object? It would have been better to get nothing at all until completely developed. The least you could have done is communicate that this would not be usable on standard objects at first. The level of frustration you created on this is unprecedented...

Hi, we are very interested in dynamic forms for standard objects. I do not see "Contract" object on the list. Will it be included somewhere?

I am not happy a new ide was created for standard objects (all individual). It is clearn many of the thousands of users that up-voted this want standard objects. Starting a new idea we lose the 14 year history of people wanting this.

Hello! I've upvoted this Main/primary idea awhile ago, and now, all of the related Ideas for the specific standard objects too. Is that a normal process? Cause there are alot of standard objects - is this functionality being addressed one object at a time? </Insert Shocked Face Here/>

Everyone who sees posts here, please go to the individual objects and upvote. Not the way I'd like it handled, but let's build some momentum in any case.

I feel like I'm blind looking at this list...

But what of the Products object?
