Conventions used

There are a number of text conventions used throughout this book.

Code in text: Indicates code words in text, database table names, folder names, filenames, file extensions, pathnames, dummy URLs, user input, and Twitter handles. Here is an example: "What happens if the Sales department is renamed to, let's say, Sales Dept. and the Division to Huge Clients?"

A block of code is set as follows:

AND(
  OR(
    $User.Department != "Sales",
    $User.Division != "Big Customers"
  ),
  Amount > 500000
)

When we wish to draw your attention to a particular part of a code block, the relevant lines or items are set in bold:

AND(
  OR(
    $User.Department != 
                  $Setup.Sales_Settings__c
                     .Sales_Department_Name__c,
    $User.Division != 
                  $Setup.Sales_Settings__c
                     .Big_Customers_Division__c
  ),
  Amount > $Setup.Sales_Settings__c.Amount_Threshold__c
)

Bold: Indicates a new term, an important word, or words that you see onscreen. For example, words in menus or dialog boxes appear in the text like this. Here is an example: "To enable Salesforce communities, click on Setup | Feature Settings | Communities | Communities Settings and flag the Enable communities option."
