What are the best practices in determining whether a Salesforce formula field should be created versus workflow field update?
Hi All,
For instance, if I want to add the contents of 4 numerica fields on an object, I could create a formula field to add them. Somewhere though, I've read that it is better to use Workflow Rules and field updates to do this function so that continuous calculations don't occur. I've looked and looked for documentation on this but have found none.
