Administrator<\/a><\/strong>, one of my more complex responsibilities involves sharing records appropriately based on ownership and access rights.<\/p>\n<p>When owning patient information records, such as medical histories from social media or other sources, sharing is imperative with marketing users who also own those duplicate records, based on ownership rules.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s how to approach it: To start, navigated into Sharing Settings and searched &#8216;Patient Information Sharing Rules.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium aligncenter\"

providing it with a meaningful name before telling Salesforce that all records must be shared \u2014 although one couldn&#8217;t select names directly.<\/p>\n<p>A public group that was exclusive to me \u2014 called the Amit Group. That way, I could tell Salesforce that any records owned by Amber or Amit Group (me) should be shared with the Marketing Group as appropriate.<\/p>\n<p>Although this method may appear indirect, it works extremely effectively when faced with system limitations that prevent the direct selection of users for sharing rules.<\/p>\n<p>All Salesforce Admins should familiarise themselves with it for best results when operating within such constraints.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Record_Types_and_Page_Layouts_in_Salesforce_Admin\"><\/span><strong>Record Types and Page Layouts in Salesforce Admin<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Record types and page layouts. A Salesforce Administrator should utilise record types to provide users with customised views for objects, while page layouts determine how data appears visually on the screen.<\/p>\n<p>Imagine having five fields on a patient record that not every user requires; perhaps marketing users only need three.<\/p>\n<p>Create two page layouts, targeted explicitly towards marketing users and non-marketing users, and let users choose between marketing and non-marketing layouts when creating new records.<br \/>\n<video src=\"http:\/\/cloudfoundation.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Salesforce-Record-Sharing-Guide.webm\" poster=\"https:\/\/cloudfoundation.com\/blog\/wp-content\/plugins\/a3-lazy-load\/assets\/images\/lazy_placeholder.gif\" autoplay=\"autoplay\" loop=\"loop\" muted=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"auto\"><\/video><br \/>\nRecord types come into play here when users need to select either marketing or non-marketing options while making one.<\/p>\n<p>Clicking &#8216;New&#8217; brings up two drop-down lists: Marketing or Non-Marketing.

Let&#8217;s consider both options based on our experience here.<\/p>\n<p>Criteria-based sharing in Salesforce Admin enables you to establish data rules based on specific fields.<\/p>\n<p>For instance, if the source field equals &#8220;Direct,&#8221; records can automatically be shared with marketing users. Unfortunately, though, you cannot use ownership as a condition in criteria-based rules.<\/p>\n<p>Owner-based sharing enables Salesforce Admins to establish rules governing who owns specific data.<\/p>\n<p>By setting rules such as &#8216;share records where their owners are&#8221; with particular groups, owner-based sharing provides more granular control for data visibility among all users.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/cloudfoundation.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Salesforce-Admin-Sharing-Rules.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"945\" \/>Sharing roles enable us to control who can view or modify records within Salesforce and also determine who has permission for specific actions. In particular, two forms of sharing exist: criteria-based and owner-based.<\/p>\n<p>Salesforce Administrators often face scenarios in which data must be automatically shared between groups.<\/p>\n<p>For instance, if a patient record contains direct sources, it could automatically share this information with marketing groups, all thanks to automated sharing rules in Salesforce Admin workflows.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=&#8221;1_3,1_3,1_3&#8243;
