This is an excellent opportunity to network, learn, share best practices and hear from other Salesforce users from all areas of the industry. At this event we are delighted to welcome the following guest speakers.

Making Lookups Act Like Picklists (so that users actually love them!)

Salesforce lookups are powerful, but users always prefer picklists because they can see all their options without guessing what to type. In this hands-on session, James will walk through a solution that makes lookups behave like picklists, giving users a clear, selectable list of records to chose from with zero typing required. We’ll build it together and talk about why this approach dramatically improves usability and adoption.

⭐ Matt Bradley-Roberts: Senior Technical Architect, Salesforce
