We've written one app using managed package. But to improve it, we're thinking to create a new managed package as we're not able to make much changes in existing managed package due to Salesforce limitations.
If we create a new managed package what would be the best approach to install on the subscribers machines who are already using our old managed package. As we don't want to loose data of custom fields from old managed packages and want to transfer it to new managed package. Once we get all custom fields data in our new managed package, we can ask subscribers to delete old managed package.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,

I had given 2 formula fields on a opportunity to display Accounts billing & shipping addresses. I've got the access to delete the custom fields from Salesforce team.

Due to some requirement, I've deleted these 2 formula fields from Opportunity & created managed package of major release from my developer environment including these changes.

I've another environment where I've installed previous version of this managed package which has these formula fields. But when I upgrade to latest managed package (which doesn't have formula fields), I can still see formula fields on Opportunity. Though if I uninstall previous managed package & install latest one, these fields are getting deleted from Opportunity.

So is there any way these formula fields will also get automatically deleted when I upgrade managed package?
If this is not possible is there any way I can recover these custom formula fields from Opportunity in my developer environment from where I create managed package? As I'm not able to get any option where I can see deleted custom fields.

Thanks in advance.

Hello Team,

I'm using 3 salesforce accounts for Opportunity, quotes & orders as per requirement from customers. For any new features, I use to first implement it in Salesforce opportunity. Then create manage package of it & install it in Salesforce orders & quotes accounts. Once feature is implemented in Quotes & Orders, I use to cerate manage package for those & give all 3 manage package links to customers to install in their accounts. 

I've written most of the generic functions in Opportunity so I can inherit those in Quotes and Orders. 

I've received one requirement to use Connetced apps from my team. I'm not aware of it & don't have idea about implementing it in my 3 accounts. 

I've few questions about implementing Connected app as below, 

1. Do I need to configure Connected app in all 3 accounts? 
2. Will it affect creating manage package process?
3. How my customers can access 3 packages?

Thanks in advance.
