#New Releases43 personnes en discutent

This is regarding a forced updated effective Jan 2022. 

I found an article related to it https://help.salesforce.com/articleView?id=sf.icu_migration_how.htm&type=5

 

I just want to get a picture on the steps you took and things you checked and how you did it to adopt to these new changes.  Thank you in advance!

    Hi Robert,

    For the ICU Locale Format migration, I would recommend treating it as a testing/impact-assessment exercise rather than just changing the setting.

    A few things to check:

    • Review the Salesforce ICU Locale Format Migration documentation and identify which locales your org uses.
    • Test date, time, number, currency, and address formatting for your supported locales.
    • Pay particular attention to Apex, Visualforce, LWC/Aura, integrations, reports, and any custom JavaScript that parses or formats dates/numbers.
    • Test automation such as Flows, validation rules, formulas, and email templates where locale-dependent values are involved.
    • Test integrations carefully if they exchange formatted dates/numbers with external systems.
    • Enable ICU in a sandbox first, run regression testing, and compare the results with the existing format.
    • Document any impacted customizations and update them before enabling it in production.

    The main risk is usually custom code or integrations that assume a specific date/number format rather than Salesforce's locale-aware formatting.

    If you share which Salesforce products/customizations you're using, I can suggest a more specific migration checklist.

Would changing the passwords

 

#Automation #New Releases #AppExchange length on password policies affect the existing users password assigned?

    Hi Branden, 

     

    Changing the minimum password length in Salesforce Password Policies does not immediately change or invalidate passwords that existing users have already set. 

     

    The new policy applies when users set or change their passwords going forward. Existing passwords can remain as they are until the user changes/resets the password. 

     

    If you want to force existing users to comply with the new password policy, you would need to have them reset their passwords (or use an appropriate administrative process).

I see from this idea exchange item that you can send an email alert when I

    Hi Bob,

    If you're referring to Enhanced Notes, you can automate this using the ContentNote and ContentDocumentLink objects. 

     

    One approach is to use a record-triggered Flow on ContentDocumentLink to detect when a note is linked to the record, then send an email notification to the appropriate users. 

     

    Keep in mind that ContentDocumentLink is used for linking the Note to records, so you'll need to determine the linked record and recipients before sending the notification. 

     

    If you share which record you want to notify users about (Account, Contact, Opportunity, etc.) and whether you're using Enhanced Notes, I can suggest the exact Flow configuration.

Could someone guide me on how to verify if a regression or bug has nothing to do with a release issue? Eg A trigger failing in an environment with a new release.

    Hi Afe,

    A good way to isolate whether a trigger issue is release-related is to compare the same functionality in an environment that has not yet received the release.

    I would suggest:

    • Reproduce the issue with the same data and steps in both environments.
    • Check the debug logs and identify the exact exception or line where the trigger fails.
    • Review the Salesforce release notes for changes affecting the object, trigger context, Apex, APIs, or related platform behavior.
    • Check whether any recent metadata, managed package, Flow, validation rule, or permission changes were also deployed.
    • If the trigger works in the pre-release environment but consistently fails after the release with no code/configuration changes, that is a stronger indication of a release-related regression.

    If you can share the exact error message and trigger behavior, it would be easier to narrow down whether it is a code/configuration issue or a Salesforce release issue.

Hey everyone 

 

We have a UAT sandbox that is already on the Winter ’27 release.

The non-beta Winter ’27 features are available and working as expected. However, it looks like all features marked as Beta are missing or not available in our sandbox.

Is there any additional setting, permission, or provisioning required to enable Winter ’27 Beta features in a sandbox?

Has anyone seen the same behavior? 

 

Examples:  

1. Preview Records from Lightning Reports Without Losing Context (Beta) 

2. Compare Values Between Fields in SOQL (Beta) 

 

Thanks!

    Hi Fabian, 

     

    Two separate reasons, per official Winter '27 release notes: 

     

    1. "Compare Values Between Fields in SOQL" (FORMULA() in WHERE clauses): requires API version 68.0+, and is scoped to sandboxes/Developer Editions/scratch orgs only. If your sandbox's API version isn't bumped to 68.0+ yet, it won't show even on Winter '27. 

     

    2. "Preview Records from Lightning Reports Without Losing Context": ships as Beta with Salesforce's standard disclaimer that beta features aren't guaranteed to roll out simultaneously with GA features, even within orgs already on the release. Some Winter '27 betas explicitly require Salesforce Support to switch on (e.g., "Show Only Matching Records Across Blocks in Joined Reports" says exactly that), so it may need manual enablement rather than a Setup toggle you're missing. 

     

    Reference:

    https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=release-notes.rn_rd_reports_dashboards.htm&release=220&type=5

     

     

    Next step: confirm your sandbox's API version for #1, and if #2 still doesn't appear, open a case with Support to check if it needs manual enablement on their side.

Salesforce feels like a journey where there’s always something new to discover. ✨

Every new concept brings a little more confidence, and that makes the learning even more exciting. 🚀

In winter27 I see this change: https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=release-notes.rn_health_home_health_list_calendar_views.htm&release=264&type=5

 

 

I have noticed that alongside this change in my preview sandbox, the view is now defaulting to the CalendarView. We prefer the list view. This is not documented. Is this the right place to post this kind of thing.

    @Eric Burté

    I am in the release readiness channel. I suppose my questions are targeted towards the product team for health cloud/home health and this being the group for that it seems like the best place to post it. I don't want/nor think I should need to cross-post. 

     

    Yes I have already checked the component config. There are no additional undocumented parameters that I could use.

Most people are unfamiliar with EML files and their uses. And those who are familiar with them are looking for an EML-to-PST converter. If you’re reading this, you’ll learn about both. EML files are essentially an offline format for your everyday emails. To open your emails offline, you need an email client like Thunderbird or Outlook. To convert EML files to PST files, use the Advik EML to PST Converter.  This simplifies the conversion between these file formats. It is the only tool that generates a detailed report of all converted items. Furthermore, the original file structure is preserved during the conversion. The converter can convert EML files to MBOX, DOC, PDF, and TXT formats. I used this and got excellent results. If you want to learn more about EML files or need a reliable EML to PST converter, I highly recommend this tool.

    Most people are unfamiliar with EML files because they usually work inside an email client rather than handling individual message files. EML is simply a standard email file that can store the message body, sender and recipient details, date, subject, hyperlinks, and attachments. It is commonly used by Outlook Express, Windows Mail, Thunderbird, Apple Mail, and other email applications. 

     

    The main advantage of EML is portability. A single email can be saved, transferred, opened separately, or converted when moving between mail platforms. You can convert your EML files to multiple formats like PST, MBOX, MSG, EMLX, HTML, PDF or others when a different email client or archive format is required. 

     

    If there are only a few EML files, an EML viewer can be enough. For hundreds or thousands of files, an EML conversion tool like

    Softaken EML Converter makes more sense because it can process the files in bulk and preserve email content and attachments.
