Hi all, 

 

I'm trying to figure out the best way to track gifts that come in via a DAF when multiple donors are connected, ensuring each donor's giving history is accurate and up-to-date. 

 

I have a couple of thoughts and was curious about the following:

  1. Does Salesforce allow more than one Contact Role to be assigned Hard Credit? Or is it limited to one, with the rest needing to be Soft Credit?
  2. If we have multiple donors associated with an Opportunity, can they all be listed as Donor? If so, would that allow the gift to be associated with each donor's record?

Thanks in advance!

    For DAF gifts the cleanest model is hard credit to the DAF, soft credit to the individuals — and that also matches the legal picture: the donor's tax-deductible gift happened when they funded the DAF, so the grant to you legally comes from the sponsoring organization. 

     

    On your two questions: 

     

    1) Hard credit isn't multi-contact. In NPSP a gift's hard credit is tied to the Opportunity's Account (and its primary contact) — effectively one payer. So set the Opportunity's Account to the DAF sponsor (e.g., Fidelity Charitable), which hard-credits the DAF, and give each individual a Soft Credit. Hard-crediting the individuals would overstate their deductible giving and muddy audit reconciliation. 

     

    2) Yes — add each individual as an Opportunity Contact Role with a soft-credit role, and NPSP creates a Partial Soft Credit for each. The soft-credit rollups then reflect the gift on every donor's record, so their giving history stays accurate without double-counting the hard credit. Which Contact Role values count as soft credit is configurable in NPSP Settings (Donations, Contact Roles). 

     

    Tip: add an Affiliation between each advisor Contact and the DAF Account (role e.g. DAF Donor) so the relationship shows on both sides.

Hi Everyone,

We are currently evaluating a significant change to our Salesforce data model and would appreciate guidance from anyone who has implemented a similar solution in a large enterprise environment.

Current Situation

The Account object is our primary master data entity.

 Looking for Experience and Best Practices: Splitting Salesforce Account into Separate Business Entities (Commercial Account vs Legal Entity) 

If your organisation has implemented a similar transformation, we would greatly appreciate insights on:

  1. Recommended target architecture.
  2. Expected level of effort.
  3. Biggest implementation risks.
  4. Business processes that were unexpectedly impacted.
  5. Integration challenges discovered after design.
  6. Impact on CPQ, contracts, billing, and reporting.
  7. Data migration strategy and lessons learned.
  8. Account Hierarchy Impact  

    How did the change affect:

    • Parent Account hierarchies
    • Rollup reporting
    • Account Teams
    • Territory Management
    • Enterprise Account structure
  9. How were Opportunities handled?  

    Did Opportunities relate to:

    • Commercial Account
    • Legal Entity

Any reference architectures, lessons learned, implementation patterns, anti-patterns, or best practices would be extremely valuable.

Thank you in advance for sharing your experience and recommendations.

    Good - since it is CPQ, that actually settles the design. Keep the Commercial (operating) account as the transactional account CPQ points its Quotes, Contracts and Orders to, and use the Legal Entity as a bill-to / contract-party lookup rather than moving the transactions onto it. 

     

    The reason: CPQ hangs Contracts, Subscriptions and Assets off the account, and renewals, amendments and asset combination ('Combine Asset Quantities' is an Account field) all key off that same account. So for existing customers, if you migrate them onto a new Legal Entity account you risk breaking the renewal and contracted-price lineage. Safest pattern: apply the two record types from day one for net-new, and for existing accounts keep CPQ pointed at the Commercial account and just add the Legal Entity link. 

     

    If this helps, please mark it as the Best Answer - thanks :)

Hi,

I have some static field values created as custom metadata. Now i want to change the generic values, but not able to locate where its been maintained.

I went to setting > Custom metadata type> manage records.

Although i can see the field value name, i can't locate where the values are maintained , which need to be updated. Any suggestions ? #Sales Cloud

    Yes. The answer is: 

    In Salesforce, Custom Metadata records are maintained under: 

    Setup → Custom Metadata Types → [Your Custom Metadata Type] → Manage Records 

    There are two different things: 

    • Custom Metadata Type → Defines the structure/fields. 
    • Custom Metadata Record → Stores the actual values. 

     

    If you can see the field name but not the actual value, click Edit on the specific metadata record. The values should be displayed there. 

      

    For example: 

      

    Custom Metadata Type: Application Settings 

     → Manage Records 

     → Default Settings 

     → Edit 

     → Update the field values. 

      

    If the value is still not visible or editable, it may be coming from another source, such as: 

     

    •  A Custom Label
    • Custom Setting
    • Custom Metadata referenced by Apex/Flow
    •  A Formula
    •  A Named Credential
    •  A value hard-coded in Apex/LWC 

     

    You can also check the Apex/Flow code that references the metadata to identify exactly where the value is being used.

Hey, newbie is here.

Absolute trivial situation, but didn't manage to handle it so far.

So, there are tables:

"users" (id, name, etc)

"questions" (id, answered_user_id, date)

"comments" (id, question_id, user_id, date)

What i need is to get ⌗answers and ⌗comments for particular user at particular time. I've create separated dimension "date" and made following joins:

users-questions (inner,by user_id)

questions-date (inner,by date)

date-comments (inner by date and user_id)

Looks right to me, but figures doesn't make any sense. Thank you in advance, any help is appreciated

    Hi Oraz,

     

    If you're comfortable with joins, you may want to prepare a Logical Table as follows:

     

    1) UNION the questions and comments tables (right in Tableau)

    2) 'ALIGN' the 'same entity' columns using the Tableau-generated [Table Name] as the anchor:

    // aligned_question_id

    CASE [Table Name]

    WHEN 'questions' THEN [id]

    WHEN 'comments' THEN [question_id]

    END

    // aligned_user_id

    CASE [Table Name]

    WHEN 'questions' THEN [answered_user_id]

    WHEN 'comments' THEN [user_id]

    END

    // aligned_date

    [date]

    3) JOIN the users table with the Unioned one by the [aligned_user_id] Join Calculation on the left

     

    Step 3 has to be prepend the step 2, I just show the calcs first to explain the Join to be made.

     

    Yours,

    Yuri

I have a permission set that allows only assigned users to perform an "Unlock" action on a locked Order. So there is a custom button on the Order page that says "Unlock Order". That button executes a FLOW to unlock the order.

However, I only want certain users to be able to unlock Orders. 

Currently unauthorized users sometimes click on the button, and then they get an error and we admins get an error email. Waste of all of our time.

So only users that have the permission set assigned should be able to see that button. 

Is there any way to make the button only visible on the Lightning page layout to users with the permission set assigned?

All help greatly appreciated!

Hi everyone! LWR allows us to add CSS class names to components, which is great for adding some custom styling. We have a client who is on the B2B Aura Template, and we are about to start on a small design refresh of their site. We want to use as many standard Experience Builder components as possible, however the styling options for Aura sites is a bit limited.

 

So I wanted to check if anyone knows of any App Exchange products that give you the ability to add CSS classes to components for Aura sites? I do have a way of targeting specific elements for styling, but it's a really roundabout way that is messy. So if there was a way to add CSS classes, or something like that it would be helpful.

 

Thanks!

    Unfortunately, something like this would have to be introduced at a platform level to apply to all / any component. Otherwise it would have to be done at a component level (to take in a custom CSS Class name as a property input and apply it to the parent wrapper of the component). So it's unlikely that there's anything on the appexchange that would address this.

     

    Maybe create an idea to extend similar functionality from LWR to Aura?

    Yes, could use Email Service or if you are using Email-To-Case, you can do it in Trigger.

    One Visual Solution could be use Custom Notification for Visual effect:

    https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=sf.notif_builder_custom.htm&type=5

     

    Additionaly, the check in the Case could be used, if you want this solution, but should work with List View and Filter for the Checkbox field. That way your agents could review this cases with incoming emails received.

     

    Thanks a lot,

    Regards
