In the section about Customizing Related Lists, where you say

“Rename the related list from the object doing the looking- in this case edit the lookup to account.”

I can’t find any way to rename the related list. Am using EE as the System Administrator. Your screen shot doesn’t jib with mine.

Wow. I just found this site. I have been seeking something like this for weeks. Thank you!!!

Getting ready to try for my first Admin Certification, and this is just what I was looking for to round out my knowledge base. Perfect!

Fantastic site!!

I’m curious about one statement in this customization section:

“Field-level security is configured separately for each record type.”

Can you please clarify? FLS is configured on an object basis but not a record type basis where any object may have multiple record types (e.g. Account has customer and partner record types)

Thanks!

John,
Useful Info. Thank you.

Minor correction for the below point mentioned in “DEFINE THE DEPENDENCIES WHEN USING A DEPENDENT PICKLIST” section.

Picklist dependencies work for Picklist and Picklist (Multiselect) fields only

Picklist dependencies work only for Picklist field, not Picklist (Multiselect).

Thanks.

@John,

Little correction for the below point,

Any field on a record that is linked via lookup relationship (a maximum of 5 lookups)- for instance you can create a formula on the opp object and reference account’s data

— It is now up to 10 lookups..

Hi John,

Wonderful info… just a point about

**********************************
Enables cross-object formulas (I can create a formula on an opportunity that references a field on the account)
**********************************
This is not possible just with the user. When user is a lookup field on any other object, you cannot use them in formulas.
