In Many situation, I needed a Mass Delete Kind of button. Where, i can select records in ListView and simply click “Delete” button.
In this example, we will create a simple List View button and add on “Search Layout” of that object.
So, create a new Custom Button with following property:
- Display Type : List Button
- Behavior : Execute JavaScript
- Content Source : OnClick JavaScript
and use below Source code:
{!REQUIRESCRIPT("/soap/ajax/21.0/connection.js")}
//Below ObjectType can be replaced by anyObject. I have used "Test Name"
var records = {!GETRECORDIDS($ObjectType.Test_Name__c)};
if (records[0] == null) {
alert("Please select at least one record.")
} else {
var opt = confirm("Are you sure you want to delete selected records ?");
if (opt == true) {
var errors = [];
var result = sforce.connection.deleteIds(records);
if (result && result.length) {
var numFailed = 0;
var numSucceeded = 0;
for (var i = 0; i < result.length; i++) { var res = result[i]; if (res && res.success == 'true') { numSucceeded++; } else { var es = res.getArray("errors"); if (es.length > 0) {
errors.push(es[0].message);
}
numFailed++;
}
}
if (numFailed > 0) {
alert("Failed: " + numFailed + "nSucceeded: " + numSucceeded + " n Due to: " + errors.join("n"));
} else {
alert("Number of records deleted: " + numSucceeded);
}
}
window.location.reload();
}
}
In above code, we only need to change line number 4 for Object Type.
Once you are done with above button, add button in Search Layout’s List View as shown in below Image.
