Lightning Field Sets

Powerful and Valuable App to improve Page Layouts and User Experience

The Lighting Field Sets app allows us to provide separate sections on the Salesforce user interface (the Lightning Record Pages) to highlight key fields. It is utilized to allow snapshot sections, key data field entry, and also multi-column page layout sections rather than the standard 2 column layout. Finally it allows an improved UI and user experience than currently possible with the limitations inherent in Dynamic Forms. Highly recommended!

Resolved! Can't install in Prod with default Nonprofit NPSP Org settings

If you are getting a big red message telling you you don't have permission to install into Production and you are a Nonprofit using NPSP - you might need to open a ticket with Salesforce support to ask Tier 3 to enable the ability to control Checkout from their back end for you. That solved my problem when trying to install in Prod. They need to do that and only after that will you be able to see Manage Billing in sys admin Profile System Permissions and also find Checkout Enabled on your personal User record. Looking forward to getting this app up and running in our Org for Lightning. Works great in Sandbox.

Excellent and much needed tool for optimizing the Lightning App Builder functionality

We are in the process of revamping our Account Lightning apps and page layouts. I kept finding myself wanting to do more with the detail fields than just leave them in the seemingly endless record detail component. Wouldn't it be nice to be able to separate out different sections of the details and put them into different tabs or in different sections of the page? I have tried to use quick actions for this type of thing, which works, but it's certainly not as smooth. I had been holding out for Lightning Layouts, but that got pushed from projected release in Spring '19 to who knows when... I am so glad that I found the Lightning Field Sets component. I have just been testing it in our Sandbox, but so far, it has met all of my expectations and is allowing me to move sections of fields anywhere I want on the Lightning app record page. So exciting! This functionality opens the door to endless possibilities of how to set up the UI in Lightning. On top of providing much needed functionality, the Lightning Field Sets component is also extremely easy to use. I set up a test example within maybe 15 minutes. Just create a field set (make sure to put the fields in a certain order depending on how many columns you want to display them as), add the Field Set Form component anywhere on the Lightning App Builder page and configure the component. I love that you can choose from read/edit defaults and make it read-only and configure the title and the columns (up to 12). The only minor flaw that I've noticed is that lookup fields don't display the correct label. For example, Account Owner displays as Owner ID and Parent Account displays as Parent Account ID. But that is something I can easily live with. All in all, this component deserves 5 stars and it is definitely worth the money. Once Lightning Layouts comes out, I'll see how they compare, but for now, this component is meeting an important need for us!
