First question is:- can i do customization on Mailchimpforsalesforce App if yes, please read the below details.
I am using Mailchimpforsalesforce app to integrate salesforce and Mailchimp(MC). The MailChimpforSalesforce app is designed to offer a two-way sync between MailChimp and Salesforce.
By this app,i got the option for creating MC campaign,view MC campaign activity, creating list new segment, staying in salesforce account only. But i didn't have the option to "create new List". I want this particular feature on this App. can i do it? please give me some overall idea regarding this.

I created a new developer org to fulfill the trailhead modules but at the beginning of of validating a challenge I get the error:
"No app named ......"was found".


Because of his error I started again in the old environment to reproduce the challenge and everything works fine.
Can someone helps me what is blocking in the new developer org? I tried again to registrate for a third develop org but it gives the same problem when I reproduce the challenge.
 

In '3 - Sales & Marketing Adoption' dashboard, change the dashboard component for 'New LEAD Trend by Source' to a pie chart and set the wedges to Lead Source.
what is wedges?

Hi,

I am looking to move our organisation to the lightning experience as it is clearly far more simple and could result in less time wasted on CRM by our sales staff.  The Composer section for Tasks on the account page is very effective but I cannot seem to find where to customise this layout.  I need to add fields to this quick create composer.  Is this possible.  

Also is there any way to allow inline editing in lightning experience?

Hello,

Im trying to create a data validation rule for the phone number field to only accept the following formats +99 9 9999 9999 or +99 9 999 9999.
I found and modified the below online which works well for the number part, however I cant figure out how to add the + into this validation rule...

AND( 
IF(ISBLANK(Phone) , false , NOT( REGEX( Phone,"[0-9]{2}[\\s][0-9]{1}[\\s][0-9]{3}[\\s][0-9]{4}"))), 
IF(ISBLANK(Phone) , false , NOT( REGEX( Phone,"[0-9]{2}[\\s][0-9]{1}[\\s][0-9]{4}[\\s][0-9]{4}"))) 
)

I also found the below which works on its own, but I can figure out how to join these two into one validation rule...
LEFT(Phone, 1) <> "+" 

Please help.
Thanks Jeff

Hello

I am trying to create a formula to show tickets created last 2 days.  In a report I thought about using a literal date range filter to show last n days nut I cant see an option to do a custom last n days only 7, 30,60,90,120.

Is there a formula to show CreateDate last 2 days?


Many thanks

I want to retrive in SOQL account record type from child object opportunity.

how can i write the query ?

I created a new developer org to fulfill the trailhead modules but at the beginning of of validating a challenge I get the error:
"No app named ......"was found".


Because of his error I started again in the old environment to reproduce the challenge and everything works fine.
Can someone helps me what is blocking in the new developer org? I tried again to registrate for a third develop org but it gives the same problem when I reproduce the challenge.
 

We mistakenly changed the domain name this morning using the "My Domain " option but now have my name in the URL  (  https://jasonold.my.salesforce.com/setup/ )  when we were trying to get the new company name included.
Is there any way to revert the domain back to the default Salesforce one or one of our choosing?

In '3 - Sales & Marketing Adoption' dashboard, change the dashboard component for 'New LEAD Trend by Source' to a pie chart and set the wedges to Lead Source.
what is wedges?

Hi all,
The question is
Install an AppExchange dashboard package and make updates to one of the dashboards.
You’ve been asked to create a new Lead trending dashboard. Rather than creating the dashboard from scratch, install a CRM adoption dashboard package from the AppExchange into your Developer Edition environment and update one of the dashboard components as specified below. (Note: While it's a best practice to always clone a dashboard before you modify it, for this example, you can go ahead and modify the dashboard directly).
Install Salesforce Adoption Dashboards from the AppExchange into your Developer Edition.
Refresh the '3 - Sales & Marketing Adoption' dashboard in the 'Salesforce Adoption Dashboards' folder at least once.
In '3 - Sales & Marketing Adoption' dashboard, change the dashboard component for 'New LEAD Trend by Source' to a pie chart and set the wedges to Lead Source.

The thing that I did:


The Error I am getting:
Challenge Not yet complete... here's what's wrong:
The 'LEAD Trend by Source' dashboard component is not a pie chart.

With Regards,

Dear community,
I'm a new hire and started at salesforce last week. I've (before) already did some trails and earned some badges with a different account. Is it possible to transfer the existing badges of my old account to my salesforce account?
Thanks for your help.

Hi 
Can any one tell me what is the use of schema builder

Hello,
I was trying to export cases with chinese characters in the description field via a soql api call. I encoded utf-8. (sys.setdefaultencoding('utf-8') However, the chinese characters are not showing up properly in the output (strange characters..such as ???). I wonder what the best way is to get case info with Chinese/Japanese/Korean characters.

Thanks,
