Hi Manpreet,

No, you can't use functions from the formula language in custom URL button . If you want, you can make a formula field of type URL and have the button emit that field. Then your formula logic would be in the field.

Hope this will help you...

Hi Manpreet,

Create a new Custom Picklist Field for Events and/or Tasks

1. From Setup, go to Customize > Activities > Activity Custom Fields.
2. Create a Custom Picklist called “Event Subject".
3. Populate the picklist with the preset phrases you want to use for the "Subject" field.

Note: No need to add this new field to existing Page Layouts.

Add the new Custom Picklist to the Publisher Action Layout

1. From Setup, go to Create > Global Actions > Global Actions.
2. Next to the “New Event” action, click Layout.
3. Remove the existing "Subject" field from the layout and replace it with your new “Event Subject” field.
4. Once this is saved you can check the "Publisher Action" button on your device and see your new picklist.
   Build a Workflow Rule

To copy the value from our Custom Picklist to the built-in Subject field:

• From Setup, go to Create > Workflow & Approvals > Workflow Rules.
• Create a new Rule:

Step 1: Object = Event
Step 2: Rule Name = Copy Event Subject
Evaluate the rule when a record is = Created
Run this rule if the following = criteria are met
Field = Event: Subject
Operator = equals
Value = (leave this area blank)
Step 3: Add Workflow Action “New Field Update”
Name = CopyEventSubject
Field to Update = Standard field: Subject
Use a formula to set the new value
Formula Value (Text) = TEXT ( Event_Subject__c )
Note: the value inside the parentheses is the API name of your custom picklist
Save

• Click Activate at the top of the Workflow Rule detail page.

Hi Manpreet,

In Lightning, Subject picklist is not available. You have to enter the text into the subject while working in lightning. If you want then you can create a new subject with picklist and customize the Task composer window and put that custom field there. Take a look here to customize the composer window here

Hi Manpreet,

Reason why It Occurs:

The maximum number of given API calls allowed for your Salesforce Organization have been reached. Can occur after syncing large amounts of data.

Resolution:

API calls are reset 24 hours from when they are used. To learn more about Salesforce API calls, please refer to their API Usage Metering.

As per this we need to wait till or less, until its resetting itself.

T2: {!t2} <br/>
<apex:form>
<apex:commandLink value="refresh"/>
</apex:form>
</apex:page>

 

public class TransientController {

DateTime t1;
transient DateTime t2;

public String getT1() {
if (t1 == null) t1 = System.now();
return '' + t1;
}

public String getT2() {

Hi Manpreet,

When a field is marked as an External ID, its values can be used to match and associate related records to one another. External IDs are commonly used to store unique record identifiers from external systems and allow for routinely loading data into Salesforce without having to prepare your import file with existing or related Salesforce record IDs each time.

• External ID prevent duplicate records from being created as a result of the import operation.
• If we perform an upsert operation using the External ID filed it Insert for new records or perform an Update for existing records.

Hi Rajan,

In the Admin Tab:

1. Click on the “Admin” Tab Click on “Business Units”
2. Search for your Business Unit by typing parts of the name in the “Search”
3. Press Search
4. Choose your Business Unit
5. Click Define Subscriber filter

A prerequisite to this will be to create a Subscriber Profile Attribute from Subscribers > Profile Management.

You will need to set the Subscriber with the profile attribute in order to define which business unit / Subscriber Filter they shall apply to.

Hope this will help you ...

Process Builder
The Lightning Process Builder is a new workflow tool that helps you easily automate your business processes by providing a powerful and user-friendly visual representation of your process as you build it. Instead of doing this repetitive work manually, you can configure processes to do it automatically. The Process Builder’s simple and powerful design allows you to automate processes.

You can use the Process Builder to perform more actions than with workflow:

1. Create a record
2. Update any related record
3. Use a quick action to create a record, update a record, or log a call
4. Launch a flow
5. Send an email
6. Post to Chatter
7. Submit for approval
8. Call apex methods
9. But the process builder doesn’t support outbound messages.

Workflow
Workflow is business logic that evaluates records as they are created and updated and determines if an automated action needs to occur. In a way it allows records to speak up or do something – update data, notify people or external systems.

Workflow does only 4 actions

1. Create Task
2. Update Field
3. Email Alert
4. Outbound Message

Hope this will help you.

Hi Kapil,

Custom labels enable developers to create multilingual applications by automatically presenting information (for example, help text or error messages) in a user’s native language. Custom labels are custom text values that can be accessed from Apex classes, Visualforce pages, or Lightning components. The values can be translated into any language Salesforce supports. We have also use custom label in our visulforce page to make that label dynamically .

Thanks

Hi Suryadeep,

Software as a service (or SaaS) is a way of delivering applications over the Internet—as a service. Instead of installing and maintaining software, you simply access it via the Internet, freeing yourself from complex software and hardware management.

Platform as a service (PaaS) or application platform as a service (aPaaS) is a category of cloud computing services that provides a platform allowing customers to develop, run, and manage applications without the complexity of building and maintaining the infrastructure typically associated with developing and launching an app.

Thanks.

Hi Manpreet,

In AURA , it is made easy to pass the URL parameters to the controllers. This only works for attributes of type String and must be appended in  .app resource. You can’t request URL parameter value for a .cmp resource directly.

Please have a look  on this blog :- https://www.forcetalks.com/blog/passing-url-parameters-to-apex-controller-in-a-lightning-components/

Thanks,

Hi Arun,

You have to add one more JQuery file named "jquery-2.2.3.min.js" before the "select2.min.js" script. When the "select2.min.js" file load it can not find the main jquery file that's why it was failed.
