Adding Help Text

If a field has help text, you will see an ā€˜iā€™ next to the field, and when you hover over it with your mouse, a help text window appears.  This is a standard Salesforce feature but you, as Thynk Admin, can add help texts in Thynk.


Help texts are a great tool to remind your users what information is needed according to your SOPs, or if not SOPs, they can be just useful reminders.

Best Practices for Help Texts

  • While there is no requirement to add help texts, they are very useful for users if you are starting with a new system, or if you want to remind them of their SOPs for data entry. 

  • Only the Admin can update help texts.
