[SalesForce] When logging in after session time-out, redirect to original page

Wondering if there's any configuration or tricks to "redirect" a user to the record/page they were working when logging back in after the system boots them off?

For example. I'm working on contact record x. I go to lunch, only to find the system has logged me out. I log back in. Bam, I'm back at the contact record x.

I have Force logout on session timeout unchecked in Setup - Security Controls - Session Settings (and also Disable session timeout warning popup enabled and Logout URL not set - blank), but I think Force logout deactivation should be enough.

The only side effect is that users might (and they probably do) try to edit the record or save it after the session expired and are being asked to reenter the password and start over.

[SalesForce] How to control redirect on approval submit

Since you are already using a VF page for helping the approval submission why not create an method with return type of pagereference in your AgreementApprovalRedirect extension and use it to redirect to the desired page?

The code would look something like this:

Approval.ProcessSubmitRequest req1 = new Approval.ProcessSubmitRequest();  
req1.setComments('Submitted for Approval');
req1.setObjectId(agreementApprovalId);
Approval.ProcessResult result = Approval.process(req1); 

if(result.isSuccess)
{
  return new pagereference('pageURL');
}

[SalesForce] VF Action to Redirect to a Standard Page with Custom Error Message

On the Apex controller of the page where you are redirecting add the following logic in the constructor:

On redirect page:

public PageReference redirectError(){
    PageReference errorRef = new PageReference('/'+theOpp+'?showError=true');
    ApexPages.addMessage(new ApexPages.message(ApexPages.Severity.FATAL,'No Products Found'));
    return errorRef;
}

Page where you redirect, add in constructor:

String showError = ApexPages.currentPage().getParameters().get('show_error');
if(showError=='true')
{
   ApexPages.addMessage(new ApexPages.message(ApexPages.Severity.FATAL,'No Products Found'));
}

If you are redirecting to standard page then you won't be able to set error message.
