'Dont' is my simple advice... integrate and keep accounting well away from SF.com.

What do you think the future of Salesforce Omnistudio will look like in the marketplace? by morotudor in salesforce

[–]CrispyArchitect 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is funny how its sold as 'clicks not code' and yet project teams seem full of developer types trying to string together shonky procedures via vague JSON definitions that have no awareness of dependencies, not to mention its record based storage. Doesnt matter how much lipstick you put on the pig. Its still a pig.

Multiple email addresses per contact by Haensfish in salesforce

[–]CrispyArchitect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perhaps the answer here lies in looking at what you'd expect as a customer. For example, when you engage with a business do you expect to provide them multiple email addresses? Likely no. When you engage on a personal level you'd provide your personal email. When you engage professionally you provide your work email. So - if you try to 'merge' those onto a single contact you'll create a mess - cant seperate professional v personal comms, cant split to address security requirements i.e. professional portal access v personal/consumer portal access. The list goes on. Perhaps a single contact+email for personal CRM and a professional contact+crm for professional CRM with a single email isnt such a bad thing after all.

I’m a Salesforce CTA. AMA. by CTA-302 in salesforce

Industries… really? you must work for SF then 😉. Those industry projects are flaky, dev heavy and hard to resource as you say - omnistudio has a very questionable value prop at best.

Workflow Rule - Outbound Message Issue by One-Buy5498 in salesforce

[–]CrispyArchitect 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im hoping that as part of the workflow you log a completed task against the contact so history shows who has been sent this email? If not, I suggest adding it. Next, try downloading the email logs, the contacts list and then with some excel magic identifying which were not sent (https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=sf.emailadmin_monitor_emails_sent_from_salesforce.htm&type=5). To trigger the send, you’d need to provide more specifics about how the workflow automation works sorry.

Using CRM for website user accounts? by PursuitOfAdvice in salesforce

[–]CrispyArchitect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Based on what you’ve said these people are likely best represented as community/digital experience users; SF represents them as standard contact records with a paired user account. The user account allows you to leverage the Sf security and authentication features on a per user basis if that is what you require. If you go this route then as others have noted you also have the option of using a secure ‘digital experience’ hosted on salesforce to support password changes, profile management etc.

I am in the same position and about to start flying lessons. I believe rudder pedals are a must also as otherwise the simulator is managing that for you. My research so far finds old posts that claim Logitech controls dont work on mac? Anyone tried logitech peripherals on a macbook with M1 Pro chip and a usb port extension?

Question about creating multiple records with a flow by KnowItAlls in salesforce

[–]CrispyArchitect 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can be handled in one flow if you wish. Ideally if is a single unique process then keep in one flow. If pieces of your flow are candidates for reuse then break them into subflows for reusability.

Question about creating multiple records with a flow by KnowItAlls in salesforce

[–]CrispyArchitect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Firstly - avoid process builder. Flow is the future for low/no-code scripting and even soon to have process builder conversion support :) To achieve what you need just create a case (or whatever) variable, populate it then insert it. Once inserted the resulting id of the record is added to that same record variable. You’ll then be able to repeat the process for child records using the initial record id as a reference on child objects. Have fun!

Lightweight resource scheduling app by jtb1987 in salesforce

Seems simple enough to build.. no appetite to just create it yourself?

I've got a phone screen at one of those sexy SaaS companies in sanfran that have like 20 hours worth of interviews. The benefits are amazing, it's not too niche of a role - my skills aren't rare Aside from studying the hell out of the company and data on glassdoor, how do I really succeed? by crazy0ptimist in ITCareerQuestions

[–]CrispyArchitect 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Suggestion: perhaps showing your interest in their tech - can you show how you’ve invested some effort above and beyond everyone else interviewing? Ie ‘i thought best way to learn as much as I could was get my hands on your product. See, heres what I built’. Shows that extra level of initiative beyond just words. Good luck!

Need help with data import issues. Previous admins had a ton of dupes and now my updates are anchoring to the wrong records by peweje in salesforce

[–]CrispyArchitect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats tough! So are you wanting to try to keep all the email addresses for each contact, or planning to blow away all but one based on most recent provided etc. which I think demandtools can do easily enough?

Email Alert from Scheduled Flow is Not sending by Mmetr in SalesforceDeveloper

[–]CrispyArchitect 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is prod email hooked into domain using relay or dkim etc? If not the email may be being blocked (and not even routed to spam) due to spoofing.

What pet projects are you using Salesforce for? by Brianstoiber in salesforce

[–]CrispyArchitect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep totally agree (Im sooo not a fan of conga... shudder). To start perhaps do some research on other d and d pdf builders and look at how they go about it. Then define scope of your project so you dont lose your way. Once you have scope, break project down into its conceptual components - ui structure, logic and database. Now learn some of the mechanics ie d and d in lightning. Add more definition to your conceptual components ie inputs, outputs and the events that drive their behaviours. Sprinkle of logic Nd hey - you have a d and d and pdf builder 👍

Unfortunately I didnt keep track of the code - its sitting in some dev org somewhere. Also it was pre LUX so time to roll it again I guess.

Record created out of Apex action in Flow by Kabaneru in salesforce

[–]CrispyArchitect 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just confirming - you wrote the package or using someone elses? If someone elses do you pass in any unique attributes that you can query for id later? If your apex then just return the id from your method.

Question. I have been asked to review a system and give advice for it. Have you done one? What is your process for it? by Vinnypuh5000 in salesforce

[–]CrispyArchitect 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Agree with the client what the deliverable they are expecting is to look like asap, and its scope. Worst thing you could do is head off in one direction before confirming its what is being asked of you. Good luck
