Hi,

we are currently looking at using Workflows / Outbound Messaging within Salesforce to deliver SMS, EMail and Fax notification messages to a series of gateway servers. We would need to send notification and also receive a response back acknowledging receipt for each message.

Initially we will start with volumes of possibly 400 - 500K a day. This could potentially need to be scaled up 10 fold in the future.

At a very high level we are investigating whether their are any queue or infrastructure limitations within Salesforce that would prevent these very high volumes of messages being handled.

Has anyone any experience of what these limits could be

Many Thanks

Brian

Hi All,

I have a question about loading data into SFDC via a Customer Portal.

We have a high volume of clients who are registered via our customer portal.

They each send us file attachements each day of low volume record sets that we have to manually load to SFDC

via Data Loader.

We propose to build functionality into our Customer Portal to allow the clients to upload this data themselves.

We would have a single data mapping file enforced across all clients to maintain data consistency and also trap

and fix any errors.

It seems to me that we would be replicatiing in apex a lot of functionality that already exists in the Data Loader

app or the standard SFDC import wizards.

Does anyone have any experience/suggestions on how this functionality can be easily extended via the Customer Portal

Many Thanks

Brian

Hi,

has anyone attempted to use the latest ap exchange Chatter code to integrate with Sharepoint 2010?

We are attempting to do this with a virtual machine running SharePoint 2010 SP1. We install the components and deploy the web parts to a Sharepoint page. We then click the login button expecting to be presented with a screen to enter the SF login details but we get the error:

Error: There is some problem in Chatter web part configuration. Please contact your administrator. 

In the Event logs for Sharepoiint we get the error:

An operation failed because the following certificate has validation errors:\n\nSubject Name: CN=login.salesforce.com, OU=Applications, O="Salesforce.com, Inc.", L=San Francisco, S=California, C=US\nIssuer Name: CN=VeriSign Class 3 International Server CA - G3, OU=Terms of use at https://www.verisign.com/rpa (c)10, OU=VeriSign Trust Network, O="VeriSign, Inc.", C=US\nThumbprint: 3863534EF5120F2E8C759EB43CE71E100AD4AF72\n\nErrors:\n\n The root of the certificate chain is not a trusted root authority..

We are using a consumer key and secret that we have generated fron a test salesforce instance.

It would suggest its a problem with a SSL certificate but the details mentioned in the above error are not related to any certificates we have created or assigned to the Sharepoint web site.

I realise this code has only be released in the last two weeks and very few people may have attempted this integration but any help to resolve this would be much appreciated

Many Thanks 

Brian
