- 1This might be soluble in a Flow, but the solution is much cleaner and more scalable by using Batch Apex. Is that an option?David Reed– David Reed2019-06-12 20:28:57 +00:00Commented Jun 12, 2019 at 20:28
- If this is a one time thing and you don't have apex skills, you could break it down further by considering only Accounts created in current year, then rerun for accounts created in prior year, etc. (or similar date filtering approach, perhaps on Oppos)cropredy– cropredy2019-06-12 20:54:48 +00:00Commented Jun 12, 2019 at 20:54
- @DavidReed I agree that Batch Apex would be better, but my client has refused to use any code. I tried adding the "update opp" step to my original flow, but I still got the same error. Do you know how I could add this to a flow and make it work?Rochelle C– Rochelle C2019-06-13 14:19:09 +00:00Commented Jun 13, 2019 at 14:19
- @cropredy I tried adding the "update opp" task to my original flow and just updated one Tier at a time, hoping that would break things into small enough chunks, but I got the same error.Rochelle C– Rochelle C2019-06-13 14:19:59 +00:00Commented Jun 13, 2019 at 14:19
- 2Rochelle. Fundamentally, the flow is doing too much work per transaction and you need to reduce this. The CPU limit is fixed. You could always resort to Data Loader. Or look at the data and see if some Account(s) have a skewed amount of Oppos to update as that could be the issue (an outlier). The debug log can assist.cropredy– cropredy2019-06-13 14:35:39 +00:00Commented Jun 13, 2019 at 14:35

like so
``` - add language identifier to highlight code ```python
def function(foo):
print(foo)
``` - put returns between paragraphs
- for linebreak add 2 spaces at end
- _italic_ or **bold**
- indent code by 4 spaces
- backtick escapes
`like _so_` - quote by placing > at start of line

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. marketing-cloud), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
