Is converting List to Record safe?
I'm updating functionality to constrain user input in an line item field based on the input of another field. I've successfully done that, and one of the steps in the process is to change a list to a custom record. The problem arose that when looking to update where that information is stored, contract records point to an outdated list. When I try to point it to the updated list/record, I get the warning all data will be deleted from existing records. Not good.
One solution is to go through the process with the previous list, which will require changing the list to a record.
