Making sure Max Labs Project is Installed

Hi. I am stuck on Lab 1B Step 4: Installing the Max Labs Package. I bought this in August so I am not sure how to find it/install it. Also if it is already installed I am not sure how to check to see if it is. When I went onto Step 14 I was missing some of the information such as "Pitches" which needs to be moved to the right column in step 17. So I do not think it is installed. I was wondering if you could give me the steps on how to install. Thank you!

Yeah, I see. But you're not supposed to buy it in advance. Instead, at the start of the 2nd exercise (Lab 1b), you follow the steps to pay and install the package into your Salesforce account.


So now, when you start Lab 1b, you'll need to install it then but I'll give you a promo code so you don't have to pay again. Email me at tim.hill@themaxlabsproject.com, ok?

Stuck between steps 71-78

Hi - I'm stuck in the middle of my pitch. I'm trying to solve the problem, but I was unable to do it after multiple attempts. Can you please help me with this? Attached are screenshots.

Thanks. Worked this time.

Step 100 (Clicked Save)

Hi, after step 100, instead of hitting the discard option, I clicked save and exit. What should I do now? I'm assuming eveything will be messed up if I continue building on that mistake.

Don't worry. It won't mess up too much - just that one report. I think you would just lose a few points when you grade it if you leave it like that.


You can't take off the date limit once applied, but you can edit the report and extend the dates so they include all the Pitch meetings and that will avoid losing the points because all the records will be back in the report. Just reset the starting date of the date filter to any date in 2018 and set the ending date to anything in 2020. Then all the records will be back in the report, the totals will be correct and the grader will give full points.


Hope that helps. Let me know, ok?

Hello,

I’m following up on my previous post about the missing Lab 1a Pitches records. Earlier, I accidentally deleted my Pitches from Lab 1a, then restored them following the recovery instructions.

However, even after re-importing the data, my Pitch Everything list view (screenshot attached) only shows manually created records (P-025 → P-034) instead of the original Lab 1a records (P-000 → P-009).

Because of this, the Max Labs Grader app still shows that my pitches are wrong and I’m only getting 32/50 on Checkpoint 1, even though I completed all required steps.

Could someone please help me fix this issue or confirm if there’s a specific import file or step needed to properly restore the Lab 1a pitch records?

Yeah, your Pitch records definitely look messed up. Computers are super-picky so you really have to take the time to read and follow the instructions or things will get messed up and take way longer to fix in the end, like this.


So at the start of Lab 1b, the first 4 steps tell you to delete the Pitch object that you made in Lab 1a. That is so that you won't confuse it with the new Pitch object that gets put into your account when you install Max's Pitch Package. Then after you install Max's Pitch Package you have the new empty Pitch object and you import the 10 records into it. They should be numbered P-000 to P-009.


In your screencap, it looks like you are showing the correct new Pitch object, from Max's Pitch Package, but somehow your number is way off. It appears you imported multiple times and also deleted and/or added other records because it's not even a multiple of 10. Like if you just did it 3 times, then the records would be numbered P-000 thru P-029. Not sure how you got it to that point but, once the ID numbers get assigned, there's no good way to fix them.


But the correct 10 records are there and you can go on to Lab 2a that way so the grader should only take off 10 pts for that. If you give me access to your account, I can give you back the 10 points the grader is taking off for that, np. But there are other mistakes there too if it is taking off 18, so you will need to fix those yourself or accept the score that way.


So first fix the other errors, as much as you want to, and then give me access and I'll add back the 10 pts for the wrong Pitch IDs. For that, do these 3 steps so I can access your account. Let me know when you've done them, ok?
