TaskMaster



I want to showcase a new application I have created. This is a simple application which enables tablet users to view their open tasks and manage them. The application is designed to be intuitive and user friendly and provide simple but effective process flow.

Highlights

  1. Implementation of jQuery Mobile with Visualforce
  2. Google maps with driving directions
  3. Signature capture via SignaturePad (jQuery based plugin).


Following are the screens of the application:-

  1. Task List
    • Grading of tasks based on current week, next week and future tasks to prioritize based on their due date
    • Displays only open tasks
  2. Task Detail
    • Displays task detail
    • Fields to be displayed can be managed via fieldset, hence can be customized by admin
    • Displays account location on google maps and suggest driving directions
  3. Close Task
    • Ability to close task in one click
    • Ability to capture customer signature while closing task
    • Just a small app. Hope you like it.

Quick Tips: Salesforce default Images

Well, I'm sure a lot of you still rely on using out of the box salesforce images for displaying quick icons within formula fields or even using them within your Visualforce pages. Lately, I realized that a lot of earlier resources are no longer accessible, so I tried to quickly extract all images from Salesforce CSS files and provide a quick reference here. Please note, I've referenced all images from SF servers directly, so if anything changes, the image should stop rendering here. As these images are completely controlled by Salesforce, and in case they change anything, it might lead to image not being accessible. Image path Image /img/samples/flag_green.gif /img/samples/flag_green.gif /img/samples/flag_red.gif /img/samples/color_red.gif /img/samples/color_yellow.gif /img/samples/color_green.gif /img/samples/light_green.gif /img/samples/light_yellow.gif /img/samples/light_red.gif /img/samples/stars_100.gif /img/samples/stars_200.gif /img/samples/stars_300....

Lightning: Generate PDF from Lightning components with in-memory data

I'm sure as everyone is diving into lightning components development, they are getting acquainted with the nuances of the Lightning components framework. As well as, its current limitations. Being a new framework, this is bound to happen. Although we have our users still using salesforce classic, we have started using lightning components framework our primary development platform and Visualforce is considered primarily for rendering lightning components within Classic Service console. Recently, while re-architecting a critical module, we encountered a problem wherein we needed to generate PDF from lightning components. Now, being Javascript intensive framework, it has limited room for such features (may be included in future roadmap). As of now, there is no native feature within the lightning framework to do so (at least I didn't find anything). Common Scenario - Create Visualforce page to retrieve data and generate PDF For scenarios where the data exist within Sa...

Sneak Peek: Checkpoints (a.k.a. Simulated Breakpoints)

What? Simulated breakpoints a.k.a. checkpoints enable developers to assign breakpoints to assess stack values at that point of execution. Where? Simulated breakpoints are available in new Developer console.  Why? At many occasions developers need to assess variable/ instance values during execution. This comes in very handy especially when debugging something in production wherein developers cannot add "system.debug" statements at their will. With breakpoints, developers can very well place breakpoints at desired code locations and execute the code to get breakpoint results How? To create checkpoints, open a class/ trigger in developer console and click on left hand side (just next to line no.). Once added, you can view your breakpoints in "Checkpoint Locations" sub tab within Checkpoints tab.  Each execution of class/ trigger generates Checkpoint data in "Checkpoints" sub tab. Double click on the individual checkpoint log, to view correspondin...
