I am getting the following error when I try configuring a JavaScript button, which should create a Task record




This is my script

{!REQUIRESCRIPT('/soap/ajax/30.0/connection.js')}
var connection = sforce.connection;
var newtask= new sforce.SObject("Task");
newtask.Subject = "Tried Calling";
newtask.WhoId="{!Lead.Id}";
newtask.Description="Tried calling, but could not get through";
newtask.ActivityDate={!Today}
newtask.Status="Completed";
newtask.Type="Admin Call";
newtask.Priority="Low";
result = sforce.connection.create([newtask]);
alert(result );

I am a total beignner at this, so have copied and amended this script based on other posts

We are trying to create a form on our Intranet for people to submit Ideas, which creates an Idea record in Salesforce. It works great until we try to add the upload attachment functionality.

This is the problem line in the script
<label for="upload_file">Choose a file to upload: </label><input name="upload_file" id="upload_file" type="file" /><label class="error">Maximum 5MB</label><br />

The record gets created, but there's no attachment and the error in the logs is
"ERROR uploading attachment to SFDC, file only saved locally"

Any ideas????

 

I would like to display an iFrame on a custom object record page and pass a value from one of the fields to the URL.

For example I have the value abcdefg on my record, so i need to pass that to the URL

So let say the full URL should be:
http://xyz/User/User?&d_user_name=abcdefg&source=1


I've looked at this page but it doesn't help me that much as I am an Apex and VF newbie.
https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.pages.meta/pages/pages_compref_iframe.htm

How would I do this?!

I get the error "Custom read failed" when I try and retrieve anything from the IdeaComment object.

I've tried posting this in the Qlikview forums, but no one can help me so i figured it could be a Salesforce setting.

I'm trying to set up email alerts from the task object and I believe this is possible using the Process Builder to launch a flow.

My question is how do I pass the values from the Process to the flow?

I keep getting the error
The flow failed to access the value for myVariable_current.Owner.Username because it hasn't been set or assigned

the following batch file i have written below seems to run the two beans for my process at the same time.

Is there a way to ensure that the first bean is finished, before running the 2nd?

C:
cd C:\Program Files (x86)\salesforce.com\data loader\bin\
start process.bat "\\fsdata01\Department\eCommerce\BIU\Salesforce\Dataloader\Dev\3rd test" GCDentityupsert
start process.bat "\\fsdata01\Department\eCommerce\BIU\Salesforce\Dataloader\Dev\3rd test" extrefinsert
Exit

Each <bean> in the process-conf.xml file refers to a single process such as an insert, upsert, export, and so on. Therefore, this file can contain multiple processes.

My question is, what is the syntax for having multiple beans in the same xml file?

The xml below is taken from the user guide, so for arguements sake, lets say I want a 2nd bean, in the same file. Does it simply go on the end (after line 28)? Or does it need to go between certain tags? Sadly the user guide is no help!!

I'm trying to use the Windows task scheduler to launch an upsert process and therefore need to create a .bat file to run that process.

My process.bat file is in the following folder:
C:\Program Files (x86)\salesforce.com\data loader\bin\

My process-conf.xml file along with all other data is the the following folder:
\\fsdata01\Department\eCommerce\BIU\Salesforce\Dataloader\Dev\2nd test with GCD mappings

the name of my process is "secondtestmapping"

the process works fine when I run it manually from the cmd, but I can't figure out how to translate that to a batch file.

Can anyone help?!


FYI, the command I use in the cmd to manually run the process is:
process.bat "\\fsdata01\Department\eCommerce\BIU\Salesforce\Dataloader\Dev\2nd test with GCD mappings" secondtestmapping

I get the following error in the Data Loader cmd when trying to Upsert some custom object records;
"field name provided, does not match an external ID"

My GCD_ID__c field is categorised as an External ID and the same sdl file works perfectly when i use the Apex Data Loader tool rather than the cmd. So the mappings are definitely correct.

Maybe i am missing something in my xml file?

The cmd for the Dataloader is telling me the "Field mapping is invalid", even though the sdl file was built in the Apex dataloader tool. I have triple checked the mappings and there's nothing woring with them.

I am a full system admin and have read/write access to every field on the custom object, so am a little confused.

Other things I have tried which made no difference:
-Deleted unmatched columns in the csv
-Checked to make sure there were no white spaces in the sdl file
-Used field labels to map rather than the API label

Does anyone know the API object name and fields to mass subscribe users to a particular item of content? We do NOT have Chatter activated

I am unable to see the correct object in this list.
https://www.salesforce.com/developer/docs/api/Content/sforce_api_objects_list.htm

I though maybe it was the EntitySubscription object, but this doesn't seem to appear in the dataloader.io tool

I'm very new to the Force.com IDE and and trying to use Eclipse to find some information.

 

Essentially I need to remove a value from a multi-select picklist, but i think it's mentioned in some validation rules and/or workflow rules. The problem is, we have a lot of both and manually searching using the point-and-click functionality in salesforce is too time consuming.

 

The problem is that when I search for this picklist value which I know exists, nothing appears. Not even the field in which it resides. What could I be doing wrong?

 

The metadata components i downloaded were 'Apex and Visualforce'. Would that metadata be contained in there?

Hi,

 

I want to create a logic in salesforce that when a user created a task and saved will automatically send an email notification. When i tried creating a workflow, icannot find the email alert as immediate action. I only found outbound message which i am not sure if capable of doing so. If this outbound message will works for my requirement, can someone guide me on how should i begin. thanks.

 

Is there any way i can throw an email notification aside from this?

 

 

Thanks,
Del

I'm just getting into a SF admin seat so I don't have much Apex experience.

 

I want 2 fields in the opportunities object to be updated once a field in a custom object is updated.

 

When the text field in Object 1 (the custom object) is entered as complete, I need two seperate fields in the opportunity object updated.

 

I want status changed to approved and a custom checkbox to go from unchecked to checked.

 

Thanks in advance
