The RECYCLE BIN is now in Lightning, and it’s even better

Now we’ve View, Restore, Delete and The Tab for Recycle Bin.

Why people love it: Accidental deletions happen more often than most of us would like to admit, and having the ability to easily find and “undo the oops” without switching back to Classic is on the shortlist of the most highly anticipated “better in Lightning” features.

Printable View for Lists comes to Lightning

Why people love it: Even if we live mostly in a digital world, there are still those times when you just need that hard copy. The Printable view gives you only the parts you need from the screen.

Bye-bye Power of One fields. Hello Count Unique Values (Beta)

First, enable this feature from “Reports and Dashboards Settings” by selecting “Enable Unique Row Count Aggregate in Reports (Lightning Experience Only).”

Why people love it: Admins everywhere have struggled with this “counting conundrum” since the dawn of Salesforce, and the best way to accomplish this was to add the legendary “Power of One” custom formula field on every object you want to count. With this feature now built into the report options, you can reserve your custom fields for other things.

Start a Flow on a Schedule:

What it is: Now you can schedule an autolaunched flow to start on a particular date and time and set the frequency to once daily, or weekly. Scheduled flows can run on a set of records you specify. For example, send a weekly alert to the owners of Opportunities in the Prospecting stage that haven’t been updated in the last seven days.

Why people love it: Previously, the only way to schedule a flow was to use scheduled Apex to call the flow. Scheduled Flows lets Admins schedule flows to run with the same ease as setting up a meeting.
