Report on Cases

Hi All,

 

 I need a report  based on Case. I need to calculate the time duration when the case is in "R&D" and "in Progress" status.

 However this report should show the time duration according to the representative.

 

e.g.  there is a case 1 

 

1. User1 change the status from NEW to IN PROGRESS. say at 9am

2. User 2 change the satus from IN PROGRESS to HOLD Say at 10am

3. User3 change the status from HOLD to R&D say at 12 pm

4. USer4 change the status from R&D to closed say at 15 pm

 

Hence i need report as

User 1 ::  Working hours 1(10am-9am) IN PROGRESS

User2  :: Working hours  3 (15pm -12pm) R&D

 

Any help and suggestion is highly appreciable.

 

Thanks,

Mayank

Save a custom object record as a PDF Document and attach to the same record

Hi Guys,

I am trying to develop a trigger(not sure if it is possible through Apex Triggers) to save a custom object record as a pdf document and then attach the same document to that record. we have a custom object called Research, what we want to achieve is when a certain date field is entered and saved then the data in that research record must be saved as a PDF document and get attached to the same record. 

I am not sure if this is achievable through triggers only. can anyone give any suggestions for how this can be achieved?

Thanks,
