Current Release Notes

Latest Release Version 2.21

Install DLRS 2.21 into your production, sandbox, or scratch org from Salesforce.org MetaDeploy.

What’s changed in v2.21?

Release 2.21 introduces a new Wizard User Interface (UI) built in Lightning Web Components as well as the ability to schedule the rollup job directly in the wizard. There are no underlying processing engine updates.

We are releasing the new Wizard in “Beta” at this time which means that it will not automatically become your default UI in this release. This allows you to try out the new Wizard and still be able to switch back to the old version as needed.

A few highlights of the new Wizard are:

  • List view of rollups that is sortable and searchable
  • Popup modal to edit the rollup when you click on the name from the List View
  • Updated field order and fields labels in the Wizard to optimize and clarify the creation of rollups
  • Path at the top of the rollup that displays the deployment steps needed based on the calculation mode of the rollup
  • Updated calculation mode labels (link to updated calculation mode documentation coming soon)
  • Schedule rollup job user interface that allows you to schedule any number of rollup jobs at whatever interval is needed in your instance

What do I need to do?

Once installed there are 2 ways to access the new wizard.

  1. In the Manage Lookup Rollup Summaries page, click on the “Try Our New Wizard” Button (as long as you are on a version that starts with a 2)
    DLRS Beta from the App Launcher
  2. In the App Launcher, search for Beta and select Manage Lookup Rollup Summaries (Beta)
    DLRS Beta from the App Launcher
