If you or someone in your organization received an error message when trying to update a Task or a Board that says:

 

Error: Type: Required fields are missing: [type]

Issue:

In Summer ‘19, we introduced a new feature: List Type. The new functionality within Lists on the Board includes a new required field: Type.

During the upgrade, the Lists in existing Boards that were created prior to July 2019 will have a List Type value pre-populated. However, some organizations may experience an issue the List Type values do not get fully pre-populated during the upgrade.

 

Solution:

A Precursive OBX Admin User or a Salesforce Administrator can push a button in the Precursive OBX Application Settings page that will quickly fix the issue.

 

Just follow these steps:

 

1. From the Precursive OBX tab, open the wrench icon located on the lower left-hand corner.

 

 2. Select Application Settings

 

3. Go to the Background Processes tab

 

4. In the Migrate List Template Type section, click Run Now
