Metadata Specific Support
sfpowerscripts support handling the following metadata without using any additional plugins. Read on more how to configure these metadata specific behaviours
sfpowerscripts support built in support for handling profiles using the dual pass reconcile functionality. You can read more on this section
Profile reconciliation against a target org is enabled by 'default' on all source packages. To disable this functionality, add the keyword as described in the sample below
```json
{
"packageDirectories": [
{
"path": "./src-access-mgmt",
"package": "access-mgmt",
"versionName": "Version 1.0.6",
"versionNumber": "1.0.6.NEXT",
"reconcileProfiles": false // Control Profile Reconcile
}
]
}
```
sfpowerscripts supports entitlement version handling, where you could have a package with multiple entitlements. Read more on how sfpowerscripts handle entitlement below
Disable entitlement handling by using the plugins section of sfdx-project.json
```json
"plugins": {
"sfpowerscripts": {
"disableEntitlementFilter": true //disable entitlement filtering
}
}
```
sfpowerscripts supports a dual mechanism for field history tracking. One can use a declarative approach to configure field history tracking / feed tracking using a YML file or let sfpowerscripts automatically determine the course of action if an unlocked package contains fields which have field history tracking enabled in its associated metadata.
If you are using the YAML mode, a package should have a folder with the title 'postDeploy' and can have the following files
File Name | Description |
|---|---|
history-tracking.yml | A YAML file which has a list of object and fields, where field history tracking should be applied (Applies only to fields, Objects should be enabled with history tracking manually) |
feed-tracking.yml | A YAML file which has a list of object and fields, where feed tracking should be applied |

This feature can be controlled by specifying the value on the package descriptor as shown below
```json
{
"packageDirectories": [
{
"path": "./src-env-specific-alias-pre",
"package": "src-env-specific-alias-pre",
"versionNumber": "1.0.0.0",
"aliasfy": true,
"ignoreOnStage": [
"prepare",
"validate",
"quickbuild",
"build"
]
},
{
"path": "./src/frameworks/feature-mgmt",
"package": "feature-mgmt3",
"versionName": "Version 1.0.6",
"versionNumber": "1.0.6.NEXT",
"enableFHT": false // Control FHT deployment on a package
"preDeploymentScript": "scripts/suspendDeferSharingCalc.sh",
"postDeploymentScript": "scripts/unSuspendDeferSharingCalc.sh"
}
]
}
```

sfpowerscripts supports picklist deployments during unlocked package upgrades, which has been a known issue of Salesforce
During the build stage, sfpowerscripts checks if picklist exists in an unlocked package. As a pre-deployment step, it retrieves the picklist from the target org, compares it with the local changes and updates the org if any value changes are detected.
