Hi, my understanding is that if you use Apex triggers on an opportunity perhaps, clicking "Keep Sales Team" is rendered useless because the code overwrites what's happening in the UI. Has anyone ran into this, and if so, does anyone have any insight on what kind of code is needed to make this happen, as well as what other "gotchas" could occur by using a before/after update trigger in this fashion?
I'm looking to see if anyone has any success pushing mobile updates from a BES Server. We are able to push to new devices, but not to devices with Apex Mobile already loaded on it. Has anyone had any luck or can help out here? Thanks!!! -Brad
I want to run an s-control that will be invoked by a standard user, but the s-control needs to update a field that's only accessible to an administrator... is there a way to "log-in" as an administrator in the background so the s-control can run? I thought you can do something with a session id of an admin, but wouldn't that expire eventually? Someone please help, thanks! -Brad
The reason I need to send the output of the s-control to the screen is because it's updating a field in the profile - however the user needs to actually refresh the screen for the new field value to show up -- meaning, even though the data in the database is accurate, to the user, the value LOOKS old because apparently the view shows up before the database is updated with the update function.... anyone have this issue before as well? (I am summing up a total of related list items, and when they add a new related list item, my update to an "Amount" field is occurring successfully, it's just that when they first view the page after hitting save, the Amount field has the old value until you refresh (but it did update the field even though it shows the old value)....)
Has anyone done this before where you have an s-control in a profile, and it looks just like a regular field (that is, when you change the browser window size, the s-controls follows along with the other fields)? I saw some references to some technotes, but if someone can just slap in any s-control they have done that looks like a regular field I will extrapolate what I need. Would be much appreciated. Thanks!! -Brad
Hi, I've seen some posts on this but none answer it specifically. I have a simple applet with some class files that it needs to reference. I tried uploading these class files into documents, and tried referencing the document location in the applet, but it says:
load: class /servlet/servlet.FileDownload?file=01550000000Fena not found. java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: .servlet.servlet.FileDownload?file=01550
(I also tried https://etc)
Where would I upload this class, and how do I reference this class in the applet that is in the s-control? Any help would be much appreciated!!!
Hello everyone. I am in need of some help creating a S-Control. I am the Admin for my
company but do not have much programming experience. I am trying to
create a process in the opportunity tab that will create a new record in
in a related custom object when the user saves a new opportunity. The new record on the custom (related) object will contain data from 3
fields in the opportunity. I was
told that an S-Control can achieve this. If anyone can lead me in the
right direction, it would be greatly appreciated.
Is it possible to include more than one table in an outbound message? For example a contact record with it's parent account in one record? This is useful when the external system has it's own external ID for accounts and not the salesforce ID shown in the AccountID field of a contact and the message is triggered off the contact.
I have a feeling the answer is no, but I do have to ask. Any alternatives? Like writing apex code and using outbound messaging libraries?
PLEASE ONLY ONE PERSON HELP ME WITH THIS AT A TIME (unless you don't care about the $25!). I realize I am way over my head with this, but I would really like to see this in action. Again, only one person help at a time, as I only have one $25 Paypal payment to give out! This is where I am at:
1) Installed JDK 1.42 2) Installed Tomcat 4.1 (not sure if this is needed) - verified running on port 8080 3) Installed Apache Axis 1.4 (copied webapp/axis over to Tomcat - again not sure if required) 4) Downloaded Enterprise WSDL from Salesforce and saved to desktop 5) Installed Ant
NOW, I just need to run Java2WSDL and I am STUCK! I realize I probably have to compile this and I am completely lost what to do. I'm not sure if the Enterprise WSDL import is related to this step, but I need help with this too.
Thanks in advance, once I get this running, I will immediately paypal you $25! -Charles
