 HOW TO UPDATE A FIELD VALUE USING LIST VIEW BUTTON

 

Description :

Updating field values using a List View button in Salesforce is a powerful feature that allows administrators and users to efficiently modify multiple records in a streamlined manner. Salesforce List Views provide a convenient way to filter and display specific sets of records, and with the addition of custom List View buttons, you can perform batch updates on selected records with just a click. This capability is particularly beneficial for tasks like mass data updates, status changes, or other field modifications across multiple records, saving time and ensuring data accuracy. In this guide, we’ll walk you through the steps to create and utilize List View buttons to update field values in your Salesforce instance, enhancing your data management capabilities and productivity.
