Dear community,
Is it possible to trigger an automatic attribute value change when another attribute value is changed ?
My concern is not calculated attributes because still, the user should be able to enter the final attribute value on his own.
It's much more about an automatic proposition : If attribute1 = x then (by default) attribute2 = y
Thx !

maybe you can create two attributes
Y final and Y proposition. Y Proposition is a calculated attribute and final is there for the user to fill in.
If you want to take it a step further you can create 3 attributess
Y user input, Y proposition and Y final where Y final is also a calculated attribute taking the value of user input unless it's empty it takes the value of proposition. Your Y final you can use than in reporting, document generation, query's etc.

Hello
I do not identify a mechanism to manage this
However if both steps (compute default value automatically and overload default value by end user) are executed at creation, you can try to developp a MetaWizard for this (to be tested)
- compute default value automatically and set a property
- display this property to the end user so that he can overload it
