Abstract: A method for introducing action items via a social media interface of a social media platform is provided. The method detects, at a server, an incomplete feedback request submitted to the social media platform, wherein the incomplete feedback request lacks response, and wherein the social media platform is connected to the server; generates an action item post from the incomplete feedback request; and provides, by the server over a network, the action item post via the social media interface.

Abstract: In embodiments there are provided techniques for flexibly displaying information into one or more columns. One technique includes the user interface (UI) receiving from an end user a selection of display criteria configured by an administrative user. Data from a dataset may be selected and/or ordered for displaying according to the criterion selected by the end user. Alternative embodiments may provide displaying positive and negative data, sorting, and fixed locations.

Abstract: Techniques for searching in a multitenant database environment. A graphical user interface is provided that includes a search functionality for searching a database within a multitenant database environment. The multitenant environment includes data for multiple client entities, each identified by a tenant identifier (ID) having one of one or more associated users. Users of the client identities can only access data identified by their tenant ID. The multitenant environment is at least a hosted database provided by an entity separate from the client entities, and provides on-demand database service to the client entities. Suggested search results are provided in response to user-generated search query input. The suggested search results are based on monitored usage patterns corresponding to a user and are refined in response to subsequent user-generated search query input. Search results are provided based on the user-generated search query input and/or a user selection from the suggested search results.

Abstract: There are provided mechanisms and methods for leveraging a customer relationship management system (CRM) to send meeting invitations. These mechanisms and methods for leveraging a CRM system to send meeting invitations can enable identification of invitees to which to send the meeting invitation using customer information stored by the CRM system. The ability to leverage the CRM system to identify the invitees can provide a more efficient technique for scheduling meetings.

Abstract: A multi-tenant server system for executing search queries includes a database that stores multi-tenant data including data objects having associated data records for a plurality of users associated with a plurality of tenants, and a server system including a processor. The processor is configured to execute a method including the steps of applying search queries to the multi-tenant database and providing a search result set including a plurality of data objects each having at least one data record. The method further includes reordering the search result set according to predetermined scoping criteria based on individual user histories, including recency and frequency metrics, to produce a reordered search result set. The reordered set is filtered based on predetermined permission criteria associated with each user, and displayed.
