Setting up FinancialForce Highlight Picklist Cards

This topic describes how to add the FF Highlight Picklist Card component to a Lightning Record page. For more information about the overall process, see Adding Customizable Lightning Components to FinancialForce Lightning Pages.

The picklist card displays the picklist value contained in a picklist field on the object that the Lightning Record page corresponds to. A threshold can then be added to the picklist card; the threshold determines the color the picklist card will be displayed in.

The color of the picklist card changes when the field’s value is above or below the threshold that has been set. If the value does not match the threshold rules, the picklist card is displayed in the default color.

This section provides an example of a picklist card that displays the risk impact of the milestone object for the PSA Project Manager or risk owner.

The component is configured to display the impact and severity of the risk against any milestone.

The following table displays the values entered to set up the component.
