Hi,

 

Can we perform Mass Delete (in Customization) on all custom objects?

 

please reply.

To my Knowledge, mass delete can be performed on Standard objects only.

 

Consider the following when using mass delete:

  • You can only delete up to 250 items at one time.
  • When you delete a record, any associated records that display on that record's related lists are also deleted.
  • Accounts and contacts associated with cases cannot be deleted.
  • Partner accounts with partner users cannot be deleted.
  • Contacts enabled for Self-Service, and their associated accounts, cannot be deleted.
  • When deleting products, all related price book entries are deleted with it.
  • Products on opportunities cannot be deleted, but they can be archived.
  • When you delete activities:
    • Any archived activities that meet the conditions are also deleted.
    • Requested meetings aren't included in the mass-delete until they're confirmed and automatically converted to events.
  • The child events of a recurring event are not displayed in the list of possible items to delete, but they are deleted along with their associated event series.
  • Deleting a master solution does not delete the translated solutions associated with it. Instead, each translated solution becomes a master solution.
  • Deleting a translated solution removes the association with its master solution.
