When the “Only deploy (object name) records that are children of the (dropdown of selectable objects) records that are being deployed.” checkbox is selected on the Account object settings screen of a data deploy, only one parent record can be selected. The ability to filter by multiple fields would be useful in my org.
Use case: we have a custom object Beneficiaryc with lookups to 2 different objects: Asset_Groupc and FinancialAccountc. AssetGroupc and Financial_Accountc are both children of the Account object, so I’m able in one deploy to include Account records with all child AssetGroupc and FinancialAccountc records, but I have to choose between including all Beneficiaryc records that are children of deployed FinancialAccountc records or AssetGroupc records; I can’t include both. My current workaround is to do a second deploy just of Beneficiaryc records, but if the Filter using parent object feature had the flexibility of the standard Configure filter function with the ability to add fields and logic, we would be able to accomplish this in a single deploy.
