20. Summary
• Two type of actions:Global and Object-Specific
• Global no predefinedparent
• Object-Specific predefinedparent
• You can createcustom actions of both types
• Firstcreate the action,then add it to the layout
• All with point-and-click
22. Best Practices
• Leave feed as landing page
• Don't create mobile-specificPage Layouts. UseAction Layouts instead
• You cannot override “New” and “Edit” buttons
• Tell users to create records without parent from feed (through GlobalActions)
• Tell users to create records with parent from detail view (through CustomActions)
• Create quick update actions for object with many fields
