Delete multiple records without apex code in Salesforce

In this post, I am going to share the information how to Delete multiple records without apex code in Salesforce

While working with Salesforce we can only delete one record at a time using this screen. It is not possible to delete multiple records at once.
To overcome this limitation in the standard salesforce view screen, we have many ways to delete multiple records.

1. Setup –> Data Management –> Mass Delete Records

 

2. To delete records that belong to the Standard Object Like: Accounts, Leads, Contacts, Cases, Solutions, Activities and Products

3. Pick the record type you wish to mass delete. Then examine the data you’re looking to delete; remember that this is generally undo-able, so pick wisely.

4. Specify conditions/filters for the times selected.

5. You may check the options to delete the appropriate records: archived records, accounts with other attached accounts.. etc

6. Choose “Search” to find the matches based on the conditions

7. Select the boxed next to the record you want to delete; alternatively, you can click on the header to select all.

8. If needed, you may select the “Permanently Delete” records.

9. Click “Delete”.

Developer Console

1. We can used the developer console to delete multiple records.

2. Go to Developer Console as shown below

 

3. Click on Debug and go to Open Execute Anonymous Window

 

4. Enter the code in the Anonymous Window

list<custom_object__c> obj= new list<custom_object__c>();
obj=[select id  ,field_1__c,field_2__c from custom_object__c ];
delete obj;

TRUNCATE BUTTON FOR CUSTOM OBJECTS
