Key Business Problem

I want to create a List View to show a user only the Custom Object records for which they are responsible, but they may not be the owner of the record. The “My Record” functionality is based solely on ownership of the record, so how can we create useful List Views for each user without the “My…” capability?

Background

For Southeast Dreamin’ (SED), we manage all of our session submissions and logistics in a Salesforce org. When someone submits a session, the form creates a Custom Object Session__c record and one or more Speaker__c records. Sessions can have one or more speakers attached to them.

How I Solved It

I created a custom formula field that evaluated to “true” if the Session Manager was the same as the current user, and then built List Views from that field.
