  • Hello,

    I m assuming your controller property to get the options looks something like one of the following

    If you are taking the values directly from a specific picklist field

    public List<SelectOption> getMyOptions() {

    List<SelectOption> options = new List<SelectOption>();
    Schema.DescribeFieldResult field = yuopurObject.YourField.getDescribe();

    for (Schema.PicklistEntry f : field.getPicklistValues()){
    options.add(new SelectOption(f.getLabel(), f.getLabel()));
    }
    return options;
    }
    Or if you are manually adding the options, then something like this

    public List<SelectOption> getMyOptions() {

    List<SelectOption> options = new List<SelectOption>();
    options.add(new SelectOption('Option1','Option1'));
    options.add(new SelectOption('Option2','Option2'));
    options.add(new SelectOption('Option3','Option3'));
    return options;
    }
    If you want to adjust the options according to profile then you could simply do something like this

    public List<SelectOption> getMyOptions() {

    List<SelectOption> options = new List<SelectOption>();

    //Might want to look into storing in a custom setting to avoid SOQL call
    Profile p = [Select Id, Name From Profile Where Name = 'Your Profile Name'];
    if(System.Userinfo.getProfileId() = p.Id){
    //add your values here
    }else{
    //add alternate values here
    }

    return options;
    }

  • Hello,

    External ID is field in Salesforce to say that this field is primary key in external Database which can be used to identify that external record exists in Salesforce or not ? There are many benefits of external key like :

    It can be used to identify if record exists or not and record automatically inserted or updated using upsert operation
    Upsert operation is supported by Dataloader, Apex and API
    Any field marked as external id is indexed and can be used in SOQL or report filter
    You can create Parent child record in single statement in Apex
    Using Upsert operation to create/update child record and relate to existing parent record with help of External Id

    Lets assume that you have list of contacts and Account in external SQL Server database and you want to import those Account and contact weekly. It is possible that you have already imported contacts previously so don’t want to duplicate records if already created in Salesforce. To solve this problem we can use external Id on Contact and use upsert operation on dataloader. Let’s assume external Id field on Contact is “SQL_Server__Id__c” (I am assuming that Account records in Salesforce also have external Id and records are already imported. Same below steps can be used to import Account record as well).

    Launch Dataloader installed from Salesforce and make sure settings like “Batch Size”, “Server host”, “Start at row” are correct.
    Salesforce Dataloader Settings
    click on “Upsert” button.
    Login Window may appear, so enter your Username and Password+Security token.
    Select “Contact” object in next window and choose CSV file of contact you want to import in Salesforce.
    It will alert informing total number of records going to be processed, click OK.
    In next screen , you will be prompted to select field from Contact which should be used by Salesforce to identify record and take decision that it needs to be updated or inserted. Id field and all fields which are marked as external Id will be listed here.  Don’t expect this screen in any other operations except upsert.
    External Id choice in Upsert operation of Dataloader
    As shown in above image, select correct external Id field (in this case SQL_Server_Id__c) and click next.
    Next screen will show list of all Parent Object and each object will provide choice to select either Id field or external id field of Parent Object. This is one of amazing feature of Salesforce where Parent child relationship can be established with help of external Id (No need to use excel sheet Vlookup functions to extract 15 digit Salesforce Id to establish relationship). In this case example, we only want to create relationship with  Account so we will use only Account’s external Id and leave others unselected.
    Create Parent child relationship using External Id in Dataloader
    At end of this article, I have provided Youtube Video link following same steps.
    In Next window we need to map CSV file field with Salesforce fields. One point to notice in below image, how we are mapping Parent Account’s External Id with contact record.
    Field Mapping to create Parent Child relationship using ExternalId in Salesforce
    Once all of above steps are followed, we can click on Next window and upsert operation will start. Salesforce will provide CSV file of success and failure results to perform post analysis of operation.

    Hello,

    you can check

    if(string.valueOf(c.OwnerId).startsWith('005'))
    {
    //owner is User
    }

    if(string.valueOf(c.OwnerId).startsWith('00G'))
    {
    //owner is Queue
    }

    This can save you a SOQL 🙂 and is standard across all ORGS in salesforce

  • Hello,

    You can do something like that using a Matrix report grouped by Division and CloseDate(Month) and CloseDate(Year).
    However for the variance you'll need to create Custom Summary Formulas (CSF) and you might run into a problem displaying the monthly variance.

    Hello,

    If we need to have a straightforward data exchange between a client application and Salesforce, we should go with the Data Integration options like SOAP API, but in case we need to have some logic before or after the data is committed or sent out of Salesforce,  we should opt for the Business Logic Integration options like Apex Web Services or Apex Callouts.

    November 26, 2019 at 9:51 am in reply to: How is access granted through the Role Hierarchy in salesforce?

    Hello,

    Beyond setting the organization-wide sharing defaults for each object, you can specify whether users have access to the data owned by or shared with their subordinates in the hierarchy. For example, the role hierarchy automatically grants record access to users above the record owner in the hierarchy. By default, the Grant Access Using Hierarchiesoption is enabled for all objects, and it can only be changed for custom objects.

    To control sharing access using hierarchies for any custom object, from Setup, enter Sharing Settings in the Quick Find box, then select Sharing Settings. Next, click Edit in the Organization Wide Defaults section. Deselect Grant Access Using Hierarchies if you want to prevent users from gaining automatic access to data owned by or shared with their subordinates in the hierarchies.
