Reassigning accounts (and associated records like contacts/opportunities)

Hi all,

I need to shift a whole bunch of account records from one user to another which is straight forward enough by creating filters then bulk editing the 'assigned to' field. However, this ignores the contacts and opportunities associated with that account and leaves them assigned to the original user. Is there a simple way I can reassign everything linked to a particular account to another user?

Thanks,
Phil

  • I would suggest to create a multienum field 'Reassign Related Records' with options (Opportunities, Contacts etc) on Accounts module and make it available on MassUpdate.

    Create a SugarBPM definitions which listen for updates on that field and reassign related records accordingly.

    Once selecting this field at MassUpdate view your SugarBPM process will evaluate which options has been selected and then update assigned_user on all related records with respect to selected option. Remember to clean up that field before finishing the SugarBPM process.
