Restrict a Checkbox from Getting checked (With out Using Dependencies)

Sean Taber

Hello,

I'm trying to restrict a Done checkbox from getting checked before other boxes are checked first.  My team created a project plan with multiple steps in the process.  Each step has a done checkbox.  I have a formula that fires when a specific box is checked but don't want folks to check that off sooner than they should.  I'm not able to use dependencies because the dates that populate in the start and due date columns do not align with the dates in our project plan.  Any suggestions?

 

Thank you,

Sean

That is an interesting challenge. I am not aware of a way to restrict users from checking off a box based on the checking off another box first. I could see that being very useful in some instances! I would submit a product enhancement request for that idea. If someone else in the community knows a way to accomplish this I would love to hear it.
