non-licensed users appearing in record owner list during lead conversion

If you're using portal users, is there a way to exclude non-licensed salesforce users (portal users) from appearing in the "record owner" lookup field upon "lead conversion"? @Higher Ed User Group @Boston Developer Group @Nonprofit User Group, Boston, US @Boston Salesforce Saturday @Higher Ed User Group, Northeast, US

    Greetings!

     

    I put in a case with SF support on this a while back. We noticed after the Summer '24 release, when converting a lead, the Contact Owner list displayed tons of names, including what looked like duplicates when an employee (full license) has the same name as a student (portal license).

     

    This was their response:

     

    > "As part of 250 release, a new org permission has been introduced to support LWC record picker on lead convert modal.And this is enabled by default for all orgs moving to 250. As a workaround, disabling the org perm "Leads: LWC RecordPicker on lead conversion(useLwcPickerInLeadConvert)" should resolve the issue."

     

    We took the route of having our support team reassign the lead prior to conversion, that way, they do not have to deal with the duplicate names (which is only on the lead conversion screen, not the lead owner field prior to conversion).

     

    Hope this info helps

This virtual hands-on Data Cloud workshop on May 7th 1PM EST is really the fastest way to start mastering Salesforce Data Cloud. I hope you could join in and take advantage of the event.

Though Data Cloud tools are designed to be low-code, there are many opportunities for developers as well. Salesforce  applications can take advantage of data in Data Cloud through many ways including Flows and Apex to creation actions and in prompt template. Knowledge of Data Cloud opened up a whole new world of possibilities for me and I hope you would enjoy the workshop as well. 

 

It's really a fun and productive event and Salesforce Data Cloud SMEs would be at hand to answer all your question. Looking forward to seeing you on May 7th virtual Hands-on Data Cloud workshop at 1EST! To register: https://sfdc.co/sfcabinsevents

The Release Update Inventory is now Live. 

Check out which release updates are scheduled to be enforced in Spring '24 or have had their enforcements rescheduled.

 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  1. What is the Release Update Inventory?
    • This inventory tracks the enforcement schedules of the Salesforce Release Updates. 
  2. How often is it updated?
    • Salesforce is committed to updating the inventory on a monthly basis, or as enforcement changes occur.
  3. Should I continue to use the release updates section of the release notes?
    • Yes. The Release Notes continue to be the source of truth for all Salesforce features including release updates. However, this inventory may provide an earlier notification of changes in advance of the release notes being updated.
  4. What status can a release update have?
    • New: Salesforce publishes a new release update.
    • Enforced: Salesforce has enforced the update.
    • Rescheduled: Salesforce rescheduled the enforcement of an existing update.
    • Enabled: Salesforce has auto enabled but not enforced the update.
    • Canceled: Salesforce has canceled the update and removed it from the UI.
  5. When is the next scheduled update for this inventory?
    • 12.20.23

    Thanks for this!  The FAQ document shows the next update was scheduled for Jan 31 but I can't find it.  Can you please provide a link to the most recent Release Updates Inventory?
