Is there a solution to this problem, in our organization we have to do mass update on Custom object to change Owner, or load the record from files or re-calculate the price based on New item cost.

Apex trigger works fine for all the auto-calculation but while doing Mass-Maintenance or updating more than 20 records. it started giving error message like

SampleFormAfter: execution of AfterUpdate

caused by: System.DmlException: Update failed. First exception on row 0 with id a0J800000019TwKEAU; first error: CANNOT_INSERT_UPDATE_ACTIVATE_ENTITY, Price_Protection_Sales_Form: execution of BeforeUpdate

caused by: System.Exception: Too many SOQL queries: 21

Appreicate if you can help us with below question. 

.    Is there an easy and clean way to turn-off the Apex Trigger( Changing XML in live enviornment doesn't work nicely, User or Admin(other than SFDC developer can also do this vir UI)

.   Is this possible to avoid invoking Trigger for some User(say sample or test which we can use for Mass Maintenance), some of our Mass-maintenance doesn't require trigger to be called.

. Can we change the Governon limit or any trick which can be used in Trigger to remain withing limits.

. Is Salesforce Batch Apex available or ready to use

Thanks

Problem:  Override Save Button on a Custom Object or Add a new custom Button in Edit mode of a Custom Object

Requirement:  After User "Save" a custom object A (say Parent Object), we need to force the navigation to Custom Object B (say child object), with some of the parents field pre-populated in child object. Depends on Record Type selection in Custom Object A, each time we need to call a different Child Object.

We can override the New Button of a Custom Object to change the saveURL parameter to open child custom object (B). With this over ride (by s-control or java script),
this open the Child object after save on Parent Object but doesn't populate the Child Object with Parent Field(as parnet ID and Auto-Name was not initialised when we were creating the Parent Object).

In Master object edit screen, can we add a Custom button or over ride the existing button? In Setup->Create->Object->Page Layout we can only see the Page Layout of Detail Page.

Please note all the development are in Custom Objects(Not the Visual Force Page),

Appreciate any input or direction

I want to add a button on edit page of a record (say button which opens an external URL in a new window, may be a a url for reference). How do I achieve so?

There's always option of overriding with visualforce page, but there's lot of pitfalls around that approach (say a new recordtype or field is added, you need to create new visualforcce page or update the page respectively etc)

Any idea on how to achieve this?

Hi there,

From what i am reading, it is possible to send a pdf attachment in a visual force email template. But only if that attachment is created on the fly using merge fields. 

Is it possible to attach a pdf file that is stored in the Notes & Attachments object, and have that attachment sent with the visual force email template?

Hi All!

I would like to create a Visualforce template with a HTML body. I am going to use Cyrillic characters (Russian language) in the body. In addition to that I would also like to duplicate the content of my email in the attached pdf file. I created the following test template:

<messaging:emailTemplate subject="Open lectures 2011 - Lecturer Name dd.mm.yyyy - RUS" recipientType="Lead" replyTo="open_lectures@skolkovo.ru">
    <messaging:htmlEmailBody >

        <html>
          <head>
            <style> body { font-family: Arial Unicode MS; } </style>
          </head>
          <body>
              Hello (Привет) {!recipient.FirstName} !
          </body>
        </html>

    </messaging:htmlEmailBody>
    <messaging:attachment renderAs="pdf">
        <html>
          <head>
            <style> body { font-family: Arial Unicode MS; } </style>
          </head>
          <body>
              Hello (Привет) {!recipient.FirstName} ! 
          </body>
        </html>
    </messaging:attachment>                
</messaging:emailTemplate>

The body of the email looks fine and I can read both Latin (English language) and Cyrillic characters (Russian language). In the attached pdf I can only see Latin characters. I found this document http://www.salesforce.com/us/developer/docs/pages/Content/pages_quick_start_renderas_pdf.htm and I used a font which supports Unicode characters.

I also created a simple test Visualforce page:

     <apex:page renderas="pdf">

        <html>
          <head>
            <style> body { font-family: Arial Unicode MS; } </style>
          </head>
          <body>
              Hello - Привет
          </body>
        </html>

     </apex:page>

And this page works fine.

Is there any problems with the <messaging:attachment renderAs="pdf"> tag? Could you help me to fix that?

Kind regards,

Dmitry.

I am trying to create a visualforce email template, and I cannot get the "Body " field to work without getting an error.

What is the field name for that field using what I have below for code?

I am novice to VP (no development background) use SF om MacOS.

I have prepared contract text (in Russian) attached to Opportunity with help of VP. When I have tested it in HTML everything looked fine.

However, when I have tried upload my file to PDF all my cyryllic letters disappeared. Anybody knows the issue?

Wanted to know if its possible to add fields to the "Request Update" button?  This button is currently part of contact object and enables the quick updating of demographic info.  Can we copy this functionality and add a custom button that does same thing but with dozens more fields?
