Can Agentforce create records in Salesforce?

Keeping track of customer information is important for any business. Whether it’s saving a new customer request, updating a contact, or tracking a sale, doing it fast and correctly saves time and avoids mistakes.

With Agentforce, businesses can automate record creation in Salesforce, making work easier and improving customer service.

Let’s look at how it works and why it’s useful.

How Agentforce creates records

Agentforce can add records in two ways:

Using Flows
- Flows are simple automations in Salesforce.
- When a customer calls about a return, a flow can create a record automatically and send it to the right person.
- “Flows help teams by handling small tasks so they can focus on customers,” says Miles Blake from SOLVD.
Using Custom Apex Actions
- Apex is a coding tool in Salesforce that lets businesses create custom actions.
- Companies use Apex to log customer requests, schedule follow-ups, or send alerts.
- “If a company needs more advanced automation, Apex helps customize everything,” Miles explains.

Who Can Use This?

Many businesses can save time and reduce mistakes with Agentforce. Here’s how different industries can use it:

Retail & Online Stores: Log return orders and send refund requests automatically.
Healthcare: Save patient questions and book follow-up visits.
Banks & Finance: Track loan applications and credit checks instantly.
Phone & Internet Companies: Create service requests and schedule tech visits.
Travel & Hotels: Update reservations and offer discounts or upgrades.

Do You Need Agentforce?

If your business handles a lot of customer requests, Agentforce can help by automating record creation.

But if your needs are simple, basic Salesforce Flows might be enough.

“For small businesses, using flows is the easiest and cheapest option,” Miles says.

For companies with lots of data and customers, Agentforce saves time, prevents mistakes, and improves service.

Testimonials

Our clients say

From my initial call with Spencer through project implementation with John and Evan, my experience with the SOLVD team was excellent. They were quick to understand our business needs, clear when explaining the reasoning behind proposed solutions, transparent when reporting on progress and timeline, and all around enjoyable to work with. Would highly recommend and looking forward to continue working with them in the future!

SOLVD was very straight forward with everything needed to complete the project. No surprises, no issues, and cost was aligned with the estimate. They made implementation easy and quick.

As a rule, I'm pretty stingy with my recommendations. So it's a pleasure for me to recommend Solvd as a top-flight Salesforce consultancy. Solvd recently led our company's conversion to the Lightning interface and did it on time, on budget and made it easy for me and my team. I know I'll use their services again, and am confident they can do the same for you.
