Create Calendar Date Range

[marsson]

As a system administrator I want to be able to create new date ranges representation.

Create a new custom metadata setting named: Calendar Date Range:
The Custom metadata type should have the following fields:
Range Name : Test(40)
Range Color :(Text)=> Set validation rule-> The field should be one of the basic css colors (black,silver,gray,white,maroon,red,purple,fuchsia,green,lime,olive,yellow,navy,blue,teal,aqua) OR a color in the #000000 RGB value using reg. Expressions.
Start Date/Datetime field(Text): (Help text=> API name of the field that represents the Range START);
End Date/Datetime field(Text): (Help text=> API name of the field that represents the Range FINISH);
Sequence Number(Decimal2,0)

Hi @marsson,

• Range Name - We can use the field Label which is a standard field.

• Start Date/Datetime field(Text) and End Date/Datetime field(Text) will these fields be Date or DateTime?

• What will ** sequence number ** be used for?

Hey @beatrizrodriguesalencar ,
The Label field is used by SF to generate the metadata and write it to the repository, making it sort of "unique".
Our use-case foresees multiple different calendars with dates with the same name, what makes using the label field unviable...
:)
The use for the Sequence field is to define the visualization order of the dates on the label section.

@marsson Oh yes, now I remembered it.
Start Date/Datetime field and End Date/Datetime field will these fields be Date or DateTime?
