When a user loads the page, the ConditionalRendering class sets the value of the isSystemAdministrator property. If the isSystemAdministrator property is true, the if:true directive renders the nested template, which displays Welcome, you are a System Administrator! The template contains two div tags that have a different messages.
Notice that the JavaScript doesn’t manipulate the DOM, it simply changes the value of isSystemAdministrator property. Quite powerful and efficienct!

Salesforce Pipeline Inspection
Contributor: Pankaj Nagar
Pipeline Inspection probably is an upgrade of the list view, but just for the Opportunity object. Before we discuss further Pipeline Inspection, let’s see what is required to access Pipeline Inspection.
To access Pipeline Inspection, you need to have Pipeline Inspection User (have you heard of this?) permission, which is available under the Pipeline Inspection Included permission set. You will have this Pipeline Inspection license if you use Unlimited or Performance edition. In short, you must be on Unlimited or Performance edition, then assign a permission set that has Pipeline Inspection User permission enabled.
“Pipeline Inspection gives sales teams a consolidated view of pipeline metrics, opportunities, week-to-week changes, AI-driven insights, close date predictions, and activity information. With this intelligence, sales teams can focus on the most important opportunities and forecast revenue more accurately.” quote from salesforce article. Those features are great for reps and their manager to manage their pipeline.

Use MuleSoft RPA Manager to publish REST APIs for your RPA processes to Anypoint Exchange, which you can then register as External Services in Salesforce and invoke from low-code tools like Flow Builder.

Salesforce User with Platform License – a note!
Contributor: Shiwali
Custom apps are apps developed in your organization or installed from the Force.com AppExchange. This can use core platform functionality such as accounts, contacts, reports, dashboards, documents, and custom tabs. Can NOT use forecasts and opportunities.
In terms of impact:
• If some dozens or hundreds of users are impacted, then you could create a custom object and use Apex code to replicate data from Opportunity to custom object like a mirror. Then create Reports for custom object. Configure permissions for profiles that are granted to custom object.
• If few users are impacted? then it is recommended to use full license “Salesforce”, which is expensive but could give a better return on investment and more efficient processes in Salesforce.
If you are tech-savvy and you want to write and host an app in app-exchange, stay away from objects like Opportunities, Cases etc. Use only Accounts and go for custom objects (that too minimalistic)

WhoIDs and WhatIDs
Contributor: Pankaj Nagar
WhoID in Salesforce refers to people things. So that would be typically a Lead ID or a Contact ID. The WhoId represents a human such as a lead or a contact. WhoIds are polymorphic. Polymorphic means a WhoId is equivalent to a contact’s ID or a lead’s ID. The label is Name.
WhatID in Salesforce refers to object type things. That would typically be an Account ID or an Opportunity ID. The WhatId represents nonhuman objects such as accounts, opportunities, campaigns, cases, or custom objects. WhatIds are polymorphic. Polymorphic means a WhatId is equivalent to the ID of a related object. The label is Related To.

Salesforce: Dynamic Forms
Contributor: Suraj
Now, few standard objects also are covered by the dynamic form (earlier that was only custom objects). As per the Winter ’23 roadmap, we can enable Account (incl. person Account), Contact, and Opportunity with dynamic form.
Overall, the dynamic form functionality is still the same as per the initial release, where we can show/hide each field based on Record Field or Advanced, field with filters defined will have the eye orange icon next to it.

Send Bulk List Email in Salesforce
Contributor: Jothi
You can send mass email to a maximum of 5,000 external email addresses per day per licensed Salesforce org based on Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) and sending email from list view is considered as mass email. For example, if you have johndoe@example.com in your email 10 times that counts as 10 against the limit.
You can send mass emails only to contacts, person accounts, leads, and your internal users.
You can send an unlimited number of emails through the Salesforce UI to your internal users, which include portal users.
In the Send List Email window
• You will see the balance of send email limit remaining
• You can select “From” based on your setup, including Organization-Wide Email Addresses
• You can use an email template, merge fields, and attach files
• You can Send Later and Save as Draft
• Each recipient will only see their name as the recipient, not the whole recipient’s name
