Best practices for Outlook for Mac 2011


Time management is the key to efficiency and effectiveness in both at work and personal life. Especially at work when you get hundreds of emails everyday and calendar painted with meetings, what do you do? Do you just neglect few emails or do you skip meetings? There is no quick-fix solution. I have been trying to search for some answer or sometimes came up with my own idea of organizing things but it never worked well. Then, I started researching on this topic to get the feedback from the people who work in this domain. I found this post from Outlook team itself, which recommend best practices and how to organize you Outlook, which is the epicenter of your daily activity in office.

It talks about emails, categorization, calendar, tasks, sub-folders and what not. I found this post very helpful and copied most of the recommended configuration as it is. Now I'm in process of adjusting my activity based on the post recommendation. It seems things are settling in place.

Please read through this original post.


I will post my future experience and more feedback later, here.

Salesforce - Scheduling a Schedule Job

Following are the different ways to schedule a Schedule Job through a script. Run the given code in Execute Anonymous window and then you could see in Setting -> 'Scheduled Job' that your Job is waiting to be executed. Run a Schedule Job NOW Method - 1 ScheduleSalesTargets c = new ScheduleSalesTargets(); c.execute(null); Method - 2  (This one I prefer, whenever I need to run a job) Check the current Time. If it is, let's say 10:39 AM, in your clock, then set the minute to 41. This will schedule the job for 10:41 AM just two minutes from now. But, if you set minute value to 38, then it will schedule to next hour 11:38 AM ScheduleSales c = new ScheduleSales(); String sch = '0 0 * * * ?'; System.schedule('Sales Job Name - 1',  '0 41 * * * ?', c); You could repeat following, so that job keeps running every 5 minutes while you debug and change the Apex code behind the scene. ScheduleSales c = new ScheduleSales(); String sch = ...
