A Request: Gathering Info about NPSF

gok...@gmail.com (Steve Andersen) — Sun, 12 Oct 2008 15:44:29 UT

Hi all,
A few days ago I sent out an email to all members of this group asking a few
questions that will inform a presentation I have about NPSF at Dreamforce in
November. Thanks to everyone who responded so far.
I'd like to ask everyone who hasn't filled out the survey to do so if you
can find the time. It should take you about 3 minutes.

Visualforce and Console

Does anybody know whether there are limitations that would prevent
Visualforce pages from rendering correctly in the Console?

Yes, you sent it. I've already confirmed access.

I'll hopefully have a chance to quickly add what I have to offer this
evening/weekend.

I'm still thinking that a message thread in the group will be a
benefit to help organize those that are willing to contribute - just
something where participants can indicate which S-controls they've

Dave,

This is really useful. Is their a specific email address at VR that
we should be emailing?

You might be having problems due to the staggered release schedule.
Check trust.salesforce.com for the release schedule and make sure your
sandbox and production instance are on the same version.

As a workaround, you should be able to use a workflow rule and field
update to accomplish the same thing. SF now allows you to dot through

Steve,

I myself have pretty limited time TODAY. I'm involved in final data
transfer into SalesForce for a client today and perhaps over the
weekend. Naturally, I'd like to get as much done as possible with
minimal distraction TODAY rather than Sunday evening, etc.

However, I think this could be enough of a benefit to the overall

Steve,

A wiki seems like an EXCELLENT idea...

I've got 2-3 snippets and about 4-6 S-controls pretty much ready for
sharing. (In other words, converted from beta toolkit and seeming to
run correctly in the V13.0 Ajax toolkit.)

Re: Admin Documentation

Hi Sonny,

I'm making web tabs that point to Google docs and Central Desktop's
"online documents". It's nothing fancy, but it seems to be working.
There are still some significant user adoption challenges, but at
least having the docs embedded within SF removes the "I can't find the
manual" issue.

swri...@salesforce.com (Steve Wright (Conches)) — Thu, 09 Oct 2008 22:10:41 UT

All,

I started a wiki at PBWiki where we can paste code snippets and make
comments for updating the s-controls.

Good idea?

Check whether maybe that object is set to have autonumber name field in
production but text name field in sandbox?? Only thing I can think of.

Deploying Apex - CustomObject.Name not writeable on live server?

ber...@globalexchange.org (Bergen Moore) — Thu, 09 Oct 2008 21:40:28 UT

So, I'm deploying my triggers and classes to our live server, and
even though it passes all my tests locally and works perfectly in the
sandbox, when I run DEPLOY through Eclipse, I get a single error:
ERROR: Field is not writeable: RT_Participation_Record__c.Nam e
Killing me. Any suggestions? Thanks - Bergen

RE: [NPSF] Re: Sneak Peak and NPO Edition Winter 09

swri...@salesforce.com (Steve Wright) — Thu, 09 Oct 2008 18:32:50 UT

There is a tool that Matt has developed that can run the Individual bucket account structure and split them all out in to the one to one structure.
Also, we intend to build out best practices docs for each of the 3 to 5 packages that will make up the new NPO Edition. One of the reasons why we wanted to split this out in to packages was for migrating from the previous version. It is going to take a lot of QA by the foundation and the community. I am eager to understand what we can do to facilitate this process.
