Hi Vikas,

The % and _ wildcards are supported for the LIKE operator.

• The % wildcard matches zero or more characters.
• The _ wildcard matches exactly one character.

For example in your case, if the accounts in your org have the following names:

{Direct, ReDirector, UnDirects, UnDir, Dir}

The first query returns: Direct, ReDirector, UnDirects, UnDir

The second query returns: Direct, Dir

The third query returns: Direct

Hope this helps.

Hello Sushant,

You can still test it, because classes that have no defined constructors still have a default constructor. So, your unit test would look like this:

@isTest static void test() {
testController c = new testController();
System.assertNotEquals(null, c.mapName);
}

The short answer is neither of them is explicitly used for development.

We generally use a developer sandbox for development. Partial and full copy are generally used to test your code on real data from production.

For differentiation between partial and full copy sandboxes,

Partial Data Sandbox
Partial Data sandboxes include all of your organisation's metadata and add a selected amount of your production organisation's data that you define using a sandbox template. A Partial Data sandbox is a Developer sandbox plus the data you define in a sandbox template. It includes the reports, dashboards, price books, products, apps, and customizations under Setup (including all of your metadata). Additionally, as defined by your sandbox template, Partial Data sandboxes can include your organisation's standard and custom object records, documents, and attachments up to 5 GB of data and a maximum of 10,000 records per selected object. A Partial Data sandbox is smaller than a Full sandbox and has a shorter refresh interval. You can refresh a Partial Data sandbox every 5 days.

Full Sandbox
Full sandboxes copy your entire production organisation and all its data, including standard and custom object records, documents, and attachments. You can refresh a Full sandbox every 29 days.
Sandbox templates allow you to pick specific objects and data to copy to your sandbox, so you can control the size and content of each sandbox. Sandbox templates are only available for Partial Data or Full sandboxes.

For more info on when to use which sandbox, you can refer to:

Hope this helps.

Here is my code:

VF Page:

<apex:page controller="CustomAccountController">

<script>
function search(){
ApexMethod();
}

</script>

<apex:form >
<apex:actionFunction name="ApexMethod" action="{!searchAccounts}" reRender="accountTable"/>
<apex:pageBlock >

<apex:outputText >Account Name</apex:outputText>
<apex:inputText value="{!name}" onkeyup="search();"/>
<apex:pageBlockSection columns="3">

<apex:pageBlockTable id="accountTable" value="{!accounts}" var="acc">
<apex:column value="{!acc.Name}"/>
<apex:column value="{!acc.Id}"/>
<apex:column value="{!acc.AnnualRevenue}"/>
</apex:pageBlockTable>

</apex:pageBlockSection>

</apex:pageBlock>

</apex:form>

</apex:page>

Controller:

public class CustomAccountController {

public list<Account> accounts { get; set; }
public String name { get; set; }

public CustomAccountController(){
accounts = new list<Account>();
accounts = [Select Name,Id,AnnualRevenue From Account];
}

public pageReference searchAccounts(){

string query = '';

if(name != ''){

query = 'Select Name,Id,AnnualRevenue From Account Where Name like \''+name+'%\'';
accounts = database.query(query);
}
else{

query = 'Select Name,Id,AnnualRevenue From Account';
accounts = database.query(query);
}

return null;
}
}

Note: I have not implemented pagination for this page.

Thanks!

[Kumar]

Thnaks, I got it now.

[Kumar]

Thank you so much! This really helps.

[Kumar]

Thanks!

P.S. Its ETL tools, not LTS tools, my mistake.

[Kumar]

It works flawlessly! Thanks

I used this in a helper for my JS controller, here is my code:

This is a validation rule for 'Account name is not empty' right?

Thanks, I will implement this for my lightning form.

[Kumar]

Thanks for helping ! I will try to create a trigger.

[Kumar]

Thanks dude, works flawlessly !

 

[Kumar]

Sure, this is the code snippet:

global class UpdateContactAddresses implements
Database.Batchable<sObject>, Database.Stateful {

global Integer recordsProcessed = 0;

global Database.QueryLocator start(Database.BatchableContext bc) {
return Database.getQueryLocator('SELECT ID, BillingStreet, BillingCity, BillingState,BillingPostalCode, (SELECT ID, MailingStreet, MailingCity,MailingState,MailingPostalCode FROM Contacts) FROM Account Where BillingCountry = \'USA\'');
}

global void execute(Database.BatchableContext bc, List<Account> scope){

List<Contact> contacts = new List<Contact>();
for (Account account : scope) {
for (Contact contact : account.contacts) {
contact.MailingStreet = account.BillingStreet;
contact.MailingCity = account.BillingCity;
contact.MailingState = account.BillingState;
contact.MailingPostalCode = account.BillingPostalCode;

contacts.add(contact);

recordsProcessed = recordsProcessed + 1;
}
}
update contacts;
}

global void finish(Database.BatchableContext bc){
System.debug(recordsProcessed + ' records processed.');
AsyncApexJob job = [SELECT Id, Status, NumberOfErrors,
JobItemsProcessed,
TotalJobItems, CreatedBy.Email
FROM AsyncApexJob
WHERE Id = :bc.getJobId()];
}

}

EDIT: I got it, there is an option to delete inactive processes from the process builder. Silly me!

[Kumar]

Thanks for helping !

I got it by using database.stateful.

Thanks again !

Thanks ! I will try to implement database.stateful

Hi Sushant,

Unlike DML statements, Database methods have an optional allOrNone parameter that allows you to specify whether the operation should partially succeed. When this parameter is set to false, if errors occur on a partial set of records, the successful records will be committed and errors will be returned for the failed records. Also, no exceptions are thrown with the partial success option.

For more information, go to

Hope this helps.

Hi sushant,

1. Workflows are part of standard salesforce customisation, so no code is required. While triggers are a piece of APEX code .
2. Workflows only work on record creation and updation, while triggers can work on any DML event.
3. Workflows events include field updates, email alerts, new tasks and outgoing messages only.
4. You can not create records with workflows, while with triggers you can.

There are plenty more differences, for more information go to,
