Hi Team,
I encountered an issue where a newly added picklist value to the 'Subject' field on the Task object was not appearing when trying to create a new Task directly from the Activity timeline (specifically the Chatter/Feed component) on related records such as Case, Contact, Lead, and Account.
My troubleshooting steps included:
- Navigating to Setup > Object Manager > Task > Fields & Relationships > Subject.
- Clicking 'Edit' next to the 'Subject' field.
- Adding a new picklist value to the existing list.
- Ensuring the new value was active and visible on relevant profiles in the picklist value set itself.
Despite these actions, the new Subject picklist value was not available in the dropdown when creating a Task within the Activity timeline's Chatter component in record page on related records. The previously existing values were there, but my new one was missing.
Has anyone faced this specific behavior? I'm sharing my solution below to help others, but curious if this is a common oversight!
