Use related object fields to control eligibility criteria and to group records for processing. Make the most of the new enhancements to fast-track batch job runs. All Spring '26 Batch Management changes are available for a limited set of process types, excluding the Flow process type.
- Use Related Object Fields to Build Granular Record Controls
Optimize batch job filters with conditions that use related object fields to make sure jobs process only records relevant to the business process. A job that rejects presented quotes for lost opportunities on cold accounts can use filters on Opportunity and Account fields to include only relevant quotes. - Improve Batch Job Reliability by Grouping Related Records
Group records by using fields such as parent record ID to make batch jobs more reliable and prevent row lock errors. You can also group records by related object fields to make sure that the batch job processes records with common dependencies together. For example, you can group quotes by their related opportunity accounts to avoid conflicts during parallel processing. - Boost Batch Job Performance with the Latest Enhancements
