what is record types in salesforce and what the use of record type?

Best Answer chosen by ashish jadhav 9
Amit Chaudhary 8Amit Chaudhary 8
What is a Record Type?

Allows you to define different sets of picklist values for both standard and custom picklists
Record Types help you implement your custom business processes

Why use Record Types?
To segment picklist values specific to business needs
Examples: segment by division, product line, or region
Easier administration – fewer fields to maintain

Business Process

What is a Business Process?
•Allows you to track separate sales, support, and lead lifecycles across different divisions, groups, or markets
Available Business Processes:

--> Sales Processes - Create different sales processes that include some or all of the picklist values available for the Opportunity Stage field
--> Support Processes - Create different support processes that include some or all of the picklist values available for the Case Status field
--> Lead Processes - Create different lead processes that include some or all of the picklist values available for the Lead Status field
--> Solution Processes - Create different solution processes that include some or all of the picklist values available for the Solution Status field


Please let us know if this will help you

Thanks

SendEmail failed. First exception on row 0; first error: UNKNOWN_EXCEPTION, INVALID_TYPE: sObject type 'SalesforceIqDataSource' is not supported.: []

We have apex classes through which we send emails based on user action in force.com sites. It was working great until Friday, But yesterday when one of our customer try to submit application, they were getting error, In debug it says “SendEmail failed. First exception on row 0; first error: UNKNOWN_EXCEPTION, INVALID_TYPE: sObject type 'SalesforceIqDataSource' is not supported.: []”. I am pretty sure we did not change anything related to apex class, email template, vf page etc.. Does anyone know the reason or best way to fix this?

Following on from Andrew's comment about Salesforce whitelisting the SalesforceIqDataSource for the site guest user I put in a ticket with Salesforce Support explaining the situation.

They whitelisted the SalesforceIqDataSource object for the site guest user for our organisation and I can confirm this has resolved the issue for us.

Therefore, for anyone still encountering this issue I was advise that you do the same thing and raise a ticket with Salesforce support.

Thanks everyone for the support on this.

INVALID_FIELD_FOR_INSERT_UPDATE, cannot specify Id in an insert call

Hi,

 

Can someone help, I keep getting the error:

System.DmlException: Insert failed. First exception on row 0 with id 00oS0000000AOgYIAW; first error: INVALID_FIELD_FOR_INSERT_UPDATE, cannot specify Id in an insert call: [Id]

 

But I am pretty sure that there is no Id specified in my insert call.

Here is my code:

 

 

    public PageReference save() {
        List<OpportunityLineItemSchedule> revenueSchedulesToUpdate = new List<OpportunityLineItemSchedule>();
        List<OpportunityLineItemSchedule> revenueSchedulesToInsert = new List<OpportunityLineItemSchedule>();
        
        for(revenueSchedulesDate revenueSchedulesDate:revenueSchedulesDates){
            for(OpportunityLineItemSchedule revenueSchedule:revenueSchedulesDate.getRevenueSchedules()){
                if(revenueSchedule.get('Id') == null) revenueSchedulesToInsert.add(revenueSchedule);
                else revenueSchedulesToUpdate.add(revenueSchedule);
            }
            
            if(revenueSchedulesToUpdate.size() > 0) update revenueSchedulesToUpdate;
            if(revenueSchedulesToInsert.size() > 0) insert revenueSchedulesToInsert;
        }
        
        return Page.revenueScheduleView2;
    }

Hey
 
You're getting this error becuase you're adding items to list; inserting the list; adding more items to the list; and then trying to insert all the items you've already inserted and the new ones. 
 
You shouldn't be performing DML inside a loop, although isn't directly causing your issue. Try this instead:
 
    public PageReference save() {
        List<OpportunityLineItemSchedule> revenueSchedulesToUpdate = new List<OpportunityLineItemSchedule>();
        List<OpportunityLineItemSchedule> revenueSchedulesToInsert = new List<OpportunityLineItemSchedule>();
        
        for(revenueSchedulesDate revenueSchedulesDate:revenueSchedulesDates){
            for(OpportunityLineItemSchedule revenueSchedule:revenueSchedulesDate.getRevenueSchedules()){
                if(revenueSchedule.get('Id') == null) 
                    revenueSchedulesToInsert.add(revenueSchedule);
                else 
                    revenueSchedulesToUpdate.add(revenueSchedule);
            }
        }
        
        update revenueSchedulesToUpdate;
        insert revenueSchedulesToInsert;        
        
        return Page.revenueScheduleView2;
    }
 
This will help with governor limits(although this still depends on the amoutn of data you work with), and will avoid your other issue.

Don't Show This Again Checkbox
Hi, everyone.

I'm a Salesforce beginner and I need help with this code. I want to this "Don't show this again checkbox" makes the modal to stop showing up instead of the handler doInit. I thought that I could only change the function position on the component, but it doesn't work. Can any of you help me step by step to make this works, please? I appreciate your time and patience.

Hi Camila,

Greetings to you!

You need to use init handler also so that when component refreshes it should get tempSession. But you need to set its value on button or checkbox click (according to your requirement). I have made a few changes to the code. If you click on a button without selecting checkbox it will display modal again on refresh but if you click on a button after selecting a checkbox the modal will not show again for that session.

Kindly modify the code as per your requirement.

Component:


<aura:component implements="force:appHostable,flexipage:availableForAllPageTypes,flexipage:availableForRecordHome,force:hasRecordId,forceCommunity:availableForAllPageTypes,force:lightningQuickAction" access="global" >

    <aura:handler name="init" action="{!c.doInit}" value="{!this}"/>
    
    <div class="slds-m-around_xx-large" >
        
        <!--Use aura:if tag to display/hide popup based on isModalOpen value-->  
        <aura:if isTrue="{!v.isModalOpen}">

APEX Trigger causing Case Assignment Rules to re-fire
I have an APEX Trigger that runs when a Task is created/updated, so it can update the related Case.  
 
Somehow, the trigger is causing the Case Assignment Rules to re-fire, but I don't know what.  Any thoughts?
 
 
 
trigger caseLastActivityDate on Task (after insert, after update) {

    Map<String, Task> tMap = new Map<String, Task>();

    for (Task t : System.Trigger.new) {
        
        String whatId = t.WhatId;

        System.debug('whatId is ' + whatId);
        
        if(whatId <> null && whatId.startsWith('500') == true) {
            Case c = [select Id from Case where Id = :whatId];  

            if(c.Id <> null) {     
            	c.Last_Activity_Date__c = t.LastModifiedDate;   
            	update c;         
            }
        }
    }

}

The solution I had for this was two-fold:
 
First, we added a new field, "Case Taken", which is just a boolean.   Once the case is taken by a user (who is not the default assignee), Case Taken is set to true.
 
Second, we updated the assignment rules with an new entry/step where if Case Taken equals True and the owner is not the default assigner, use the "Do Not Reassign Owner" flag.

salesforce mobile and salesforce Trailhead environment not talking to each other
I'm successfully logged in to both mobile and trailhead environments. I'm showing tasks perfromed and challenges completed successfully in the main and is supposed to show in the mobile. However, when I open the mobile and refresh, those fields are not there.  This also happens if I add a new entry in mobile (i.e. new contact).  it shows saved in mobile successfully but does not update in the main enviornment. It appears they aren't linking together and passing data. Any ideas how I can fix this? *I only have a trailhead account and 1 login. So I'm not usign teh wrong platforms.

Hi Anil,

Greetings to you!

It is possible to get this upgrade to TLS 1.2 "indirectly" by upgrading your browser to the latest version. You will automatically be using it if you are using updated browsers. Also, you update your JDK to the latest version.

To check if your browser can handle TLS v1.1 and v1.2, select https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/viewMyClient.html to open the SSL/TLS Capabilities of Your Browser web page.

Once the page completes the test, scroll down to the Protocol Features section.

  • If Yes is displayed next to TLS 1.1 and/or TLS 1.2, your browser will continue to work as it is currently does with Talent Suite applications.


However, Salesforce is requiring an upgrade to TLS 1.2 by September, 2019, in order to align with industry best practices for security and data integrity. Around this date, Salesforce will begin disabling the TLS 1.1 encryption protocol. 

A new Critical Update Console (CRUC) setting: "Require TLS 1.2 or higher for HTTPS connections" will be made available in the upcoming weeks. You can check the critical updates from Setup -> Search Critical Updates in Quick Find Box -> Select Critical Updates.

Please refer to the below link which might help you further with the above requirement.

I hope it helps you.

Kindly let me know if it helps you and close your query by marking it as solved so that it can help others in the future. It will help to keep this community clean.

Thanks and Regards,
Khan Anas
