From the height of this place I originally wrote this email for internal consumption; Presidents' Day here in the US and President Obama's recent inaugural address got me thinking about the future of the Internet, Google, and the challenges that lie ahead. The note borrows from a host of US presidential inaugural addresses to illustrate some of its points (thanks to former President Clinton for the title). Quite a few Googlers suggested I share it externally, so here it is, with just a few minor edits. - Jonathan Rosenberg Dear Googlers - Today is Presidents' Day here in the United States, when we honor the birthdays of two of our country's greatest leaders, George Washington and Abraham Lincoln. A few weeks ago many of us were lucky to witness, either in person or via TV or the web, a masterful inauguration speech by the newest President, Barack Obama.

Considerations for Field Update Actions When creating field updates for workflow rules or approval processes, consider the following: Field Update Processing Field updates occur before email alerts, tasks, and outbound messages.Field updates occur after case assignment, lead assignment, auto-response, and case escalation rules.Field updates function independently of field-level security. Therefore, a workflow rule can update fields even though they are hidden on the user's page layout.The result of a field update is unpredictable when a single workflow rule includes multiple field updates that apply different values to the same field.Field updates may affect the information in a related list. For example, if a field such as the Amount or Close Date of an opportunity is set to be updated, it will affect the Stage History related list on opportunities.If a user gets a field update error when saving a record, you can use the debug log to see which field update failed.
