What is a tag in Salesforce?

Tags are words you can associate to records in Salesforce to facilitate search and categorization. Some people think of them as ticklers or “keywords” (a common feature in many SQL based CRMs).

Personal tags aren’t affected. If administrators disable topics for an object, all public tags on records of that object type are restored.

Preserve Readonly Timestamp

I don’t generally use this, as there’s been very few times I thought I would actually need it. It can be done pretty easily by doing the following:

Preserve AutoNumbers

AutoNumbers can be pretty valuable in Salesforce, but they aren’t generally all that useful in isolation. I don’t think I’ve ever specified true to this parameter.

What is feed tracking in Salesforce?

One of the most powerful benefits of feed tracking is the visibility you get when you're on the go and using the Salesforce mobile app. Your mobile view of feed tracking makes it easy to see what's changing anytime, anywhere.

Can you change which fields you want to track?

You can still change which fields you want to track. Here are fields that are tracked by default when you enable feed tracking for: Sharing rules and field-level security determine visibility of record changes in Chatter feeds.
