I'm trying to assign record ownership on custom-object records as they are created via the API. The custom object is called "Sales Quotes". I would like to change the owner on each record from the login username used by the API to the same owner that is set on the Opportunity (Sales Quotes being related to Opportunity via lookup relationship).
The preferred method would have been Workflow rule but the field update does not allow dynamic selection of user. So I'm hoping this could be an easy Apex trigger that could run after each record is created. Does anyone have any ideas to accomplish this easily and/or some sample code that would work?
I haven't had much luck getting SSO to work with my SAML assertion. Has anyone got this to work? If so, what does your saml response look like? I signed my assertion and I believe everything is correct, yet the login history gives me "Failed: Assertion Invalid"
Hello. In a Trigger, I want to take a datetime field and convert it to
Eastern Daylight Time (always EDT - no matter what the time zone of the
current user is). I've tried using the format() method and passing the
time zone that i want, but it always converts to GMT. Is there a way to convert a Datetime object from one timezone to another? Thanks Chris
When I try to save a datetime value to Salesforce through the Enterprise API (SforceEnterprise), 4 hours gets subtracted from the time. When I retrieve a datetime value from Salesforce through the API, 4 hours gets added to the time. (my timezone is EST)
It seems obvious that this is a timezone issue, and I have tried the following to no avail:
mySalesforceObject.MyDatetimeField__c = new DateTime(dtmOrigDateTime, DateTimeKind.Utc);
I figured that by specifying that it is a UTC datetime, that would fix it, but it doesn't.
All I want is for the time to be saved and retrieved as is, with no subtraction or addition of hours.
Is there a setting on the sforceService object somewhere or on the SObject that can correct this behavior?
