online store - package maker - fishing for ideas
I have an online store selling Sessions.
Each Session has multiple presentations.
A Session Package is made up of multiple sessions.
A session looks up to it's parent, which is a conference object, since we have yearly conferences.
I need a way to associate multiple sessions with multiple packages.
Package1 = Session1, Session2,Session18
Package2 = Session1,Session12,Session14
Package3 = Session12,Session14,Sesson2
I cannot use the master/detail or lookup, that forces me to use too many objects, also, I already have relationships on those objects.
Any ideas on how you would create this package builder?
Hi,
This seems to be perfect use case for Many-to-Many relationship in salesforce, which we can achieve through junctions object. Please see below link which will help you:-

You have to create a junction object, which will store Id of bothe package & session records in your case.
Please let me know if doesn't help you.
Happy to help you!

I think this may be too many clicks for my users.
I need something very user friendly.
This many-to-many seems a bit convoluted for simple users.
It can work, but I'd reather do something different.
Hi,
As you said, there will be too many clicks for your user, I agree with you on this, only if you use custom page layout to have this. You always have option to keep this model of many-to-many relationship in background and wrap this with some very fancy & easy to use UI through VF page.
Let me know if you need more information on this.
Happy to help you!
