Can two developers use the same update set at the same time ?

[raghu1992]

Hi All,

We have a requirement to work on a Dashboard development.One developer is in India and other is in US.We want to create one single update set and work on the same simultaneously with our respective logins and then deploy it in PROD.My question is - can we create a single update set and both can work on it   at the same time ? If not what can we do to achieve this ?

Also,creating different update sets and merging them both can give us the same result as the one user working completely on one single update set ?

hello Raghu,

Yes, you can create single update set and you both can use it simultaneosuly.All the customizations will be stored in update set with who have created that.

Hi Raghu,

Yes, customizations done by multiple developers can save into single update set.   But, i would prefer to create different update sets and merge them, once completed.

I am not sure but why not have two update set for working on same module and then merger the update set with you are done with your development. In that way will be tacking what changes are done by whom. Merging the update set will take the latest changes on the application.

Here are few links that will give you more info about update sets:

Hello Raghu teja Yellavajhula,

Yes it is possible, but not recommended to use same update set for two developers.

Try to Create work on two different update sets: You can merge multiple update sets into a single update set to simplify the transfer process. You cannot "unmerge" update sets once they have been merged.
