Description 

Details

This is a tool that helps address a current platform limitation around rollup summaries. Specifically the inability to do rollup summaries between lookup relationships. 

It was built by Andrew Fawcett: https://andyinthecloud.com/

Setup

For Sandbox

This is the Wiki Andrew has created - it should be the most up to date resource for DLRS: https://github.com/afawcett/declarative-lookup-rollup-summaries/wiki#installing-dlrs
Its best to navigate to the Packaged Release History section (https://github.com/afawcett/declarative-lookup-rollup-summaries), scroll down and ensure you are installing the latest version.
You need to sign-in to the AppExchange with a production email - you will then later choose to install DLRS into your Sandbox.
Once installed - click "+" in the tab bar and search for Lookup Rollup Summaries
If you receive an error about Remote Site Settings then click the Button and your remote site URL will be created. The URL should use your instance and look something like this: https://xxxxx.xxxx.visual.force.com  Copy the value before the salesforce.com in the Address bar in your browser and put it before the visual.force.com). You can search for Remote Site Settings under Setup to see what just took place. 

For Production

Its best to navigate to the Packaged Release History section (https://github.com/afawcett/declarative-lookup-rollup-summaries), scroll down and ensure you are installing the latest version.
