I'd like to hide the "Assign Label" button from the Task List View. Was able to successfully remove the button from other objects, but when I go into the Task object's List View Button Layout, there are "no items to display." I also do not see the "Assign Label" button under the Buttons, Links, and Actions tab.

 

Is there a workaround to hide the button from the Task List View, or something I need to do so that it appears for removal on the Task object?

 

Thank you!

    Removing Assign label Standard button from case of One APP A1 , it removes other app also . do we have any workaround to remove for single app A1 specific, not for A2,A3 app. I have MF, AIF, PMS and other apps . when i removed Assign label from AIF app it removes from all the apps.  

    Do we have limitations org wide for list view.  

     or

    Is there any workaround or configuration available in Salesforce to remove the standard Assign button for a single application (A1) only, without impacting other applications (A2, A3, MF, PMS), when all applications share the same Case object and do not use separate record types?

    I too 100% agree on this. Not thought out at all by Salesforce.

Hello,    I am currently running into the issue of a picklist not defaulting to "None" as the default value.    I have made sure there is no other default value on both the Field Information section and the picklist values section under the specific record type.    Somehow it keeps defaulting to the "Phone" value when I attempt to create a new record. I would like it to default to "None"    Can someone advise?

    I can't re-create this issue in any of my Salesforce orgs.   

     

    If the Case Record Types have no default value assigned, the Case: Origin field defaults to blank as expected when creating a new Case using the standard button.     

     

    The only way it defaults to a "pre-selected" value is if I set it on the Case Record Type, or on the "New Case" Global Action, or Object-Specific Quick Action

Hi Everyone,

 

We have a specific business requirement related to task creation and visualization on the Sprint Board. I’d really appreciate guidance or best practices from the community.

Requirement Overview:

We want to enhance the task creation experience directly from the Sprint Board with the following capabilities:

  1. Task Type Selection During Creation:
    • When a user clicks to create a new Task on the Sprint Board, instead of directly creating a standard task, the system should prompt the user to choose between: 
      • Default Task
      • Bug Task (a separate Record Type)
    • Based on the selection, the corresponding record type should be assigned automatically.
  2. Support for Bug Record Type:
    • We already plan to configure a separate Record Type (Bug) for Tasks with its own fields, layouts, and validation logic.
    • The challenge is integrating this choice seamlessly into the Sprint Board UI.
  3. Visual Differentiation on Sprint Board:
    • Once tasks are created, we want clear color coding (or visual indicators) on the Sprint Board to distinguish: 
      • Default Tasks
      • Bug Tasks
    • This should help team members quickly identify and prioritize bug-related work.

Key Questions:

  • Is it possible to introduce a record type selection prompt during task creation directly from the Agile Accelerator Sprint Board?
  • What would be the recommended approach to implement this? (e.g., Lightning Components, overrides, or customization within Agile Accelerator components)
  • How can we implement color coding or UI differentiation on the Sprint Board based on record type?
  • Are there any existing extensions, configurations, or known limitations within Agile Accelerator that we should be aware of?

    HI @Mounika Teegapuram

    The image outlines a common challenge when using the Salesforce

    Agile Accelerator managed package: wanting more flexibility than the "out-of-the-box" (OOTB) Sprint Board provides.

    Since Agile Accelerator is a managed package, its core UI components (like the Sprint Board) are often "locked," meaning you cannot easily inject a custom record type picker directly into the "New Task" button without significant custom development.

    Here is a breakdown of how to approach these requirements.

    1. Task Type Selection (Record Types)

    The Challenge: The "New Task" button on the Agile Accelerator Sprint Board is designed to quickly create a standard Task record. It does not natively trigger the standard Salesforce Record Type selection screen.

    Recommended Approaches:

    • The "Low-Code" Workaround (Screen Flow): Instead of using the native "New Task" button, create a Global Action or a Quick Action that launches a Screen Flow. The Flow can ask "Is this a Bug?" and then create the task with the correct Record Type. You would place this button in the utility bar or at the top of the page, though it won't live inside the board's white space.
    • The "Pro-Code" Approach (LWC Override): You could build a custom Lightning Web Component (LWC) that wraps or replaces the task creation logic. However, since the Sprint Board is part of a managed package, you cannot easily modify the internal "Add" button code. Most teams choose to train users to create Bugs via a separate tab or global action.

    2. Visual Differentiation (Color Coding)

    The Challenge: The Agile Accelerator Sprint Board has limited styling configurations. It typically displays tasks as uniform cards.

    Recommended Approaches:

    • Formula Fields with Images: While you can't easily change the background color of the card, you can add a Formula Field to the Task object that displays a small traffic light or icon based on the Record Type (e.g., a red circle for Bugs).
      • Implementation: Go to Task Fields -> New Formula (Text) -> Use the IMAGE() function.
      • Display: Ensure this field is added to the Compact Layout for Tasks, as Agile Accelerator often pulls fields from there to display on the card.
    • Custom CSS (Not Recommended): You could technically use a "Lightning Bolt" or a browser extension to inject CSS to color cards based on text strings, but this is brittle and will break during Salesforce updates.

    3. Known Limitations & Considerations

    Before you dive into heavy customization, keep these Agile Accelerator constraints in mind:

    • Managed Package Constraints: You cannot modify the underlying Apex or Javascript controllers of the Sprint Board. Any "seamless" integration usually requires building a fully custom board, which is a massive undertaking.
    • Field Mapping: Ensure that your new "Bug" Record Type still contains the mandatory fields required by Agile Accelerator (like Sprint, Status, and Work) or the tasks won't appear on the board at all.
    • Syncing: If you use a separate object for Bugs (instead of just a Record Type on Tasks), they will not show up on the Sprint Board unless you write a trigger to sync them to the Task object. Sticking to Record Types on the Task object is the correct path.

I am trying to create a Data Detect Policy with some text fields from standard and custom objects to get scanned for sensitive data, but I am unable to find the Account and Person Account 

in the object list to select fields from, Although I have multliple text fields available in these objects. 

 

Org - Dev Sandbox (Installed - Financial Service Cloud) 

Salesforce Shield - Activated 

Permission for Data Detect - Provided 

User Profile - System Admin 

Object Access - View All/Modify All for all respective objects  

 

Just FYI - Platform Encryption is enabled for one of the custom text field from Account object. Could this be an issue? 

 

Need to understand what I am doing wrong.  

Thanks in advance.

    i think you would need to use DLRS and have it run scheduled. because if it is a normal rollup that only runs on edit of the child opp then if there are no opps changed in 6 months the value on the account would be stale since it wouldn't have recalculated.

     

    You can read the below documentation on DLRS. This is a really powerful tool that is managed by the salesforce.org team

Hello All,

I've included the 'New Task' and 'New Event' buttons in both Mobile & Lightning Actions and as Quick actions on the Case object page layout. However, I'm unable to view these buttons on the Activity Timeline for the Case object. I can see the 'New Task' and 'New Event' buttons in the timelines of other objects.

Could someone please assist me in identifying the specific issue causing these buttons to be missing on the Case object's Activity Timeline?

Thank you for your help!

    Thank you, everyone.

    The issue has been resolved. If feed tracking is enabled, we'd like to see the "Log a Call," "New Event," and "New Task" buttons in the Activity Timeline. These buttons should appear on Chatter or the feed.
