Salesforce Customisation in Lancaster

Configuring Salesforce for how Lancaster teams actually work, most of which is the access model. Visibility is computed from several layers at once — object permissions, field permissions, org-wide defaults, role hierarchy, sharing rules — and it is entirely possible to grant something at one layer that another silently withholds.

Why this comes up

The problem

Users cannot see records they need, someone widens a permission to fix it, and now everyone can see everything.

What you get

What we deliver

  • Access designed as a model rather than adjusted per complaint
  • Permission sets used for capability, with profiles kept minimal
  • Org-wide defaults set restrictively and opened deliberately by sharing rules
  • Record types and layouts reflecting genuinely different processes, not preferences
  • Field-level security applied where data should not be visible to everyone
  • Configuration favoured over code wherever the platform supports the requirement

Salesforce Customisation in Lancaster — common questions

Why is the sharing model so easily broken?
Because fixes are applied at whichever layer is quickest. Someone widens an org-wide default to solve one user's problem, and the effect reaches every record of that type. Access needs to be designed once and changed against that design, not patched.
Profiles or permission sets?
Permission sets for what someone can do, profiles kept as a thin baseline. Cloning profiles for every variation produces dozens that nobody can compare, whereas permission sets are additive, inspectable and can be granted temporarily.
When do we need record types?
When the process genuinely differs — different stages, different required fields, different picklist values. Creating record types because two teams want different layouts is a maintenance cost that compounds with every future change.
How much should we customise?
Less than most organisations do. Every customisation is something to test through three releases a year and to explain to the next administrator, and a good proportion of what gets built exists because nobody challenged a requirement. The useful discipline is asking what breaks if a request is refused — often the honest answer is that a team would have to change a habit, which is a cheaper outcome than a permanent addition to the org.
