Trailhead Baby is still around...Moving Salesforce to Lightning

Hello friends,
I am still here! I know I promised CPQ Superbadge tips, but have been caught up in some other things and STILL have not found the time for CPQ!

What have I been doing?

Great question - I converted mom's Salesforce to lightning, turned 3 years old, and decided to take up a second career as spiderman. Turning 3 is a challenge, mostly because mom now expects me to take up additional responsibilities like picking up my own toys, feeding my bunny, etc. In between all of these chores, I have been researching lightning tips and tricks to make mom's Salesforce org more efficient. More efficiency = less time mom is working = more trips to the park.

A few of my favorites so far....

Sales Console with the "split view"
- The day's 'to do' items can hang out on the left while the console tabs keep everything all organized and allow flipping between multiple items.

In-line list view edit for multiple records
Guess what mom!? You do not have any tasks today - They are all rescheduled for tomorrow. Let's to to the park!

Customized Home Page
Mom says that I can't show her home page.... but it is beautiful! Links to all of her favorite pages, report charts, chatter groups...etc etc. I made it just for her! (It is so pretty that I have a screenshot of mom's home page hanging up on our refrigerator.)

Next up - Save the world by night in my Spiderman costume! Then learn some CPQ to finally tackle that superbadge.

It also removed the approval steps from Process Builder and highlighted (with *'s) the prerequisite items to building my process. * Email Alerts I needed the Email Alerts set up before I could create either the process or ...

Security Superbadge -2

Challenge 2: Record-Level Security Settings I created the three user profiles last time, so the starting point tonight was the next tier of security - roles. I set up the roles per the provided org chart, making sure to follow the opportunity restrictions from the directions. Next, I set up the required user and assigned her to the correct profile and role. Hint: Use a real email address for Samantha Cordero. You will need to login as Samantha in order to create an opportunity for her. While you are at it, go ahead and login to Salesforce1 as Samantha.

Einstein Analytics Data Preparation Specialist Superbadge - 1,2,3

Hello all! It's time for another superbadge! I started this superbadge a long time ago... it's time to finish it! My goal is to complete this badge before my little brother starts to walk. He's getting close... Step 1 - A quiz. You're on your own! Step 2- This is one checkbox in setup. You're on your own! Step 3- Let's talk about that.... Dataflow. The best tool to use when crafting your dataflow is the data monitor. It can help troubleshoot issues to find which part of the process needs some work. For example.... Why were rows not created? The problem? A box was checked that should not be checked.... The alias name was not correct for the "register" node. Once you see that beautiful green "Success" message, it's time to check the challenge. Do not be discouraged if you get a few error messages. This superbadge is EXTREMELY picky on syntax. A few common errors: You can see this error and st...
