Senior Salesforce Developer / Consultant
Salesforce provides a native way to use country and state values in Account and Contact address fields. It’s very useful on page layouts. But what if we want access that values and use them in our Apex Class and Visualforce Page?
Here is a sample code retrieve those values and use Map to store them.
Today I came across a problem with accessing Owner custom fields (for the User object I had several of these fields). I only could access few standard fields like Owner.Name, Owner.FirstName without problems. But here’s how I solved it.
Sometimes we would like to have easy access to all our tasks. We can browse some of them on the Home page, but it’s not always an efficient way. Instead of that, we would like to have them as a tab and view them on the whole screen.
When we create an application that uses multiple languages, we use translation workbench is the purpose of the translation. Salesforce takes care of the translation user interface, so we always got the right language. But what about picklist values in Apex?
When we build custom Visualforce page, there are times we want to send some error message to user saying that something went wrong or additional data is required. Other time we want just inform him, that process bas been successfully ended.
We can do this by showing different types Apex page message severities. To do this, just use one of the following:
Files associated with a record can be stored in 2 ways: as an attachment (in the Notes & Attachments related list) as well as Salesforce Content (using Chatter Files).
Recently I had a task to create Visualforce pages, which put on the Page Layout as inline Visualforce showed the files posted by Chatter Files associated with the record. Adding files was carried out by the Chatter. Assigning Topics to an entry in Chatter allowed to filter files by this as a category.
To show a list of values in Visualforce must create the following method in Apex.
Working as a Salesforce Developer meets with the various problems of both a configuration and developing.
One of the problems was when I created a Master-Details field on a custom object to another custom object. When I created a record on the child, I couldn’t edit the value of this field.
