Lookup Filter Cross Object Patterns

Category: General  ·  Sub-category: general-misc  ·  Last updated:
Use when designing or repairing lookup filters that constrain a child lookup using fields from the parent record (or a sibling record on the same object). Triggers: 'limit lookup based on another field', 'cross-object lookup filter', 'lookup filter $Source vs $User'. NOT for filter logic on report types, list views, or duplicate matching rules.

From the source SKILL.md

Activate when a user lookup picker shows too many records, when a filter referencing a parent field returns nothing, or when a deploy of a lookup filter blocks legitimate saves on existing data. The skill produces a Salesforce-compliant lookup filter definition, a backfill plan for legacy records that violate the new filter, and a profile-exemption strategy.

What this skill does

Lookup Filter Cross Object Patterns is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the general-misc sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/lookup-filter-cross-object-patterns/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.

When to invoke it: Use when designing or repairing lookup filters that constrain a child lookup using fields from the parent record (or a sibling record on the same object). Triggers: 'limit lookup based on another field', 'cross-object lookup filter', 'lookup filter $Source vs $User'.
