Hi everyone! 

 I’m currently learning and exploring the Salesforce tech stack from past 9 months, and I’ve really been enjoying the journey so far. I've explored many features including Admin functionalities, Apex, Triggers, Flows, Validation Rules, Process Builder, and more. I’m working on building my foundation strong, and I’m aiming to start my career as a Salesforce Developer soon.

I wanted to ask: 

- How much real-time experience (in months or years) is usually expected before switching to another company as a Salesforce Developer? 

- Also, what key skills or certifications are generally preferred when making that first switch? 

 

 

Any guidance or personal experiences would be really helpful. Thanks in advance!

    Hello 

    1. Create a Custom Link
    2. Add that link to the Tab of a custom object

    Create a Custom Link

    • From Setup go to Customize > Home > Custom Links
    • Click the New button and enter a Label and Name for your link
    • Select the behavior for the window that will display the website
    • Paste the URL for the site into the formula area

    .

    Add Custom Link to Custom Tab

    • Now go to Setup > Customize > Create > Tabs
    • Select a Tab and click Edit
    • In the Splash Page Custom Link drop-down box, select the Custom Link you created in the first step and click Save

     

    Refer to the link

Hi,  

I’ve completed the Identity Resolution step in the Prompt Builder Challenge, but when I try to verify the step, I get the following error:

T I can’t find any way to go back and add or edit the Ruleset ID.

Things I’ve already tried:

  • There’s no option to edit the Ruleset ID after creation.
  • The “Clone” option is visible in the dropdown but it’s greyed out.
  • I’ve avoided clearing cache or switching browsers as it would require reauthentication, and others have said it doesn’t resolve this anyway.

Would really appreciate help on how to get past this without having to start over from scratch. Thanks in advance.  

 

Ps, if this is not possible, how can i go to the next module?

    The above article is way to complicated and loaded with jargon for a learner.  It is hard enough as it is without having to attempt to decode that.  Can anyone help directly address my question?

Hi,

I'm working on an automation to sum up the money a customer has brought in each year. I use FLOW TRANSFORM to sum Monthly Invoices and update the ACCOUNT Billing Total (Current Year). Then, I sum all Billing Total (Current Year) for each salesperson's accounts and update their Current Achievement.

The problem is that the automation isn't summing correctly. It doesn't save all records and always updates only one number. What am I doing wrong?

    You don't want to have Get Records or Update Records elements within loops. It's best to use assignment elements to assign variables within loops to then reference the variables outside of loops for updates. Rebuilding might help you avoid your problem as well. 

     

    I've found flow courses very helpful for learning best practices, but you could probably also find free resources such as videos. 

     

    It looks like you might not be using the debug tool that much, but instead saving and activating the flow (hopefully not in production). I would take some time to learn how to debug so that you can also use that to track down what's going wrong after you've reworked it.

Our softphone is integrated via openCti, and we do have call recording support in our system. We'd like to integrate those call recordings into salesforce Voice Recordings.  Is there a way to achieve that without Amazon Connect integration?  I'd also like to avoid using apex classes, as I haven't found a simple way for our customers to import those classes.    @* Salesforce Developers *

    You will need to use a third-party integration like FreJun:  https://frejun.com/how-to-integrate-frejun-with-salesforce-crm/

     

     

    Another Solutions, like BroadSoft CC-One, provide a CTI Adapter for Salesforce, allowing for the addition of voice capabilities. This integration facilitates the display of customer information during calls and the automatic logging of call details and recordings within Salesforce.
