Showing Domain of selected column in Path Location screen

What I miss from time to time is what domain a selected column uses in the application. I would like to see that in the Path Location screen. Can that be made available?

Adding Domain field between Column and Context

 

Hey Mark,

Why would you want to see domain? The domain is just a name. Why not the control type or datatype, for example.

Should we add this: what more would we include and when do we stop?


Hi Edo,

Seeing the domain gives knowledge to the developer about which domain is used for the column. Seeing the control type or data type is not relevant to me. Some columns have domain which have elements. When I see an incorrect element or wrong sorting, I have to go back into the SF only knowing the column name and having to look up the domain.

If I immediately knew the domain name, I can go straight to the Domain screen and change what needs to be changed. Also I can see if two columns that look similar are also using the same domain.

So for me, only 1 more field with Domain would be enough.
