Hi Pratik,

Firstly, I would request you please elaborate your question as it's not so clear.

Can you be more specific about having multiple owners?

Is that for a custom object, or an account, or contact, opportunity etc...

For example, if you want to have multiple owners for an opportunity created then you can make use of Opportunity teams to add multiple people to work on an opportunity record.

It still doesn't mean an opportunity has multiple owners just that multiple members can collaborate on it. The other way is you can use sharing rules to open up access to more members.

If you want to have more that one owner for a particular record then this functionality is not available as of now.

There is an idea which is active on the success community for which you can upvote so that it gets available in the mere future.

You can find the idea at the below link.

Kindly mark this as solved if the reply was helpful.

Thanks,

Lets take for an account object and explain it. Can we have multiple account owners? If some other user(owner) wants to do some changes in that account object. Hope so this will make you clear

Hi Pratik,

Unfortunately, this is not possible as of now.

One account can have only one owner and one contact can have only one owner.

One account record or contact record cannot be own by the second user.

There is an idea which is active on the success community with a similar discussion. Hope this helps.

Kindly mark this as solved if the reply was helpful.

Thanks,
Nagendra
