I wanted to see what is the best approach to take for the below scenario outlined.   

We are currently exploring how best to incorporate a stream of our business into Salesforce. This side of the business would contain a project and multiple phases. While we plan to utilise Opportunities to capture the overarching (parent) project, the complexity arises in how we manage the delivery structure of the phases. Many of these projects can include a significant number of phases often 20, 30, or even 50+ each with its own associated value and cost etc.  The project would have a different sales process and custom fields to the phases so i understand if it is opportunities (and child Opps) we have to go with seperate RTs will be needed.   

Given this, we’re unsure whether standard Opportunity records alone are the most effective solution. 

I would greatly value any thoughts on how best to implement this in our org.

I’m currently setting up Email-to-Case, but I’ve hit a hard roadblock with our institutional IT policies. Our IT department enforces a strict, global block on auto-forwarding emails to external addresses for security reasons.   

Since the standard out-of-the-box Email-to-Case fundamentally relies on that forwarding rule, I need an alternative way to get our support inbox flowing into Salesforce.

For those of you in higher ed who have faced similar strict policies:   

1. What alternative architecture did you use? Did you leverage Power Automate/middleware, an AppExchange tool, or something else to "pull" the emails via API?
2. If you did successfully get an exception from IT, how did you frame the request to get them comfortable with the setup?

Any insights or specific tool recommendations would be hugely appreciated!

Hi,

I’m facing an inconsistent permissions issue across environments.

I created:

• A Permission Set with Read access to several objects, including Engagement Interaction.
• A Permission Set Group (PSG) containing this Permission Set.

In DEV and QA environments:

• After assigning the PSG to a user, the user can see the Engagement Interaction tab and access the object correctly.

In the UAT environment:

• The same Profile, License, License Assignments, and PSG are assigned to the user.
• The user is using the same App, which is identical across all environments.

However, the user still cannot see the Engagement Interaction tab and has no access to the object.

Has anyone encountered the same issue where a user cannot access an object or see its tab in one environment, even though all configurations and permissions are identical across environments?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you!

Hello group, could you help me define the best option for packaging solutions that are not intended for commercial sale but that I want to export and install in other production organizations in other regions?
