OVERVIEWWith the Spring ’10 release, we’ve introduced Filter and Search. Finding the specific
piece of data you need is now a breeze. No more hunting and hoping to find that Opportunity or Lead you entered 3 months ago. Every tab and every list view includes
a new Filter and Search bar. Just start typing and the list of records is reduced to those that match. Select “Search” to search to look across the device for the record. One more tap extends the search to the remote server to retrieve matching records
not on the device.
In addition, with Search for Related Items you can find all of your related records with one tap. Like the new filter and search functionality, there is a new one-button
means of getting all related records.
SAMPLE USE CASE
A rep arrives on site for a field repair based on an open case. Once onsite, the customer tells the rep the problem is similar to one solved a few months previously. The rep navigates to the Cases related list for the Account, and taps “Search server
for more…” The past case appears in the list, and the rep is able to review the details and solve the new problem quickly.

search across all such records on
the device.

top of most list views. Just start
typing to filter the list.

“Continue search on server…”.

Answers (EE, UE, DE)
OVERVIEW
Many of our customers have asked us for a ‘Forums’ or a “discussion board’product that they can use inside the Customer Portal or inside the application itself. Now in Spring ‘10, Answers is our answer to a specialized discussion board for enterprises. People don’t go to company websites to socialize. They
go there to get a question answered, and hopefully to help others. Answers hones in on that business value, and is designed to lower call center costs by
deflecting potential calls to the Answers product.
SAMPLE USE CASE
A customer has a question about a company’s products. He does a simple Google search and finds the answers on the company’s Answers forum.
