Would help if you can show us sample link (there might be some stuff specific to this package I'm not familiar with, especially since it's VF page and can take any kind of params). Standard stuff: retUrl is target if you'll hit cancel but most likely what you see there is the form prepopulation trick to set Opportunity lookup and other Payment fields. Start with salesforce.stackexchange.com/questions/937/… and experiment? Also comments in salesforce.stackexchange.com/a/4582/799 ;)

| Jan 18, 2013 at 23:56 | comment | added | Aaron P. | Thank you very much! I am having a little trouble implementing your solution, and I was wondering if you could help with one more aspect: I used the URLFOR function as advised. I used: location.href = '{!URLFOR($Action.pymt__PaymentX__c.New)}'; However there are more parameters being passed in the URL generated by the original button than the one I created. How do I determine what those parameters are so I can include them in my button as well? Do I decode it from the URL or is there a better way? | |
