Top 1o Highlights Winter 18 Release
Customizable App Pages Now you can control when a component appears on a record page by adding filter conditions and logic to its properties. No need to add anything to your custom components. It is all handled by the Lightning App Builder. For example, construct a filter that causes a custom component on an opportunity page to display when the Amount is greater than $1 million. 1. Create your own! Define your own structure and components. 2. Dynamically display of components on a page by applying filters.
Time Field Type This feature has been a long time coming. While still in beta, you can use this functionality to track time unconnected to a specific date. Project managers and event planners will find this feature particularly useful. Earlier hack, I’ve had to have time entered as a string value and then parsed into a datetime value (which of course contains a date that is probably not wanted). It worked, but it’s a clunky, temperamental solution. Now, we can set up solution to have time entered automatically and stored separately in the database.
More Global actions in LEX
Edit More Records at Once with Mass Inline Editing You can now update up to 200 records without leaving a list view. Select multiple records in a list view and then click the edit icon next to the field you want to update. Enter the new value for the field, and click Apply to update the selected records
Configure navigation rules to open related records in Console Apps Configure navigation rules to open related records in Console Apps. Currently, each object is setup as a workspace, you can now configure it via App Manager | Navigation Rules to show as a subtab of another object.
Configure navigation rules to open related records
Retain More Debug Logs for Longer Salesforce has changed the way that they delete old debug logs. Now they retain debug logs for 7 days. You can generate a total of 250 MB of debug logs in a 15-minute window. When your org is upgraded to Winter ’18, all logs that are at least 7 days old are deleted. Previously, you could generate up to 50 MB of debug logs. Salesforce kept them indefinitely, deleting the oldest log each time that you exceeded the limit. Salesforce has removed the 50 MB limit and changed to a 7-day storage limit
One Community, with a Different Look for Each Audience With branding sets, you can change the appearance and style of your community pages based on the audience viewing the page. No need to create individual communities for each customer or business need. Now you build your community once, and simply style it differently for each audience. Branding sets take advantage of criteria-based audiences in the same way as page variations. Just as you can create several page variations and target them at different audiences, you can create different sets of branding properties to produce a unique look and feel for specific audiences.
Launch a Flow from an Object-Specific Action (Beta) Visual workflow, easy way because it is one of the most powerful ways to automate business processes. As of now, there are several ways through which you can trigger Flow. After Winter’18 release, you will also be able to trigger a flow from an object specific action. You can now add flows to the action menu on your Lightning pages without hunting down the flow’s URL. When you create a flow action, you can pick from a list of available flows rather than enter the flow URL manually. To work as a flow action, a flow must be active and have screens.
