Platform-App-Builder Salesforce Certified Platform App Builder (SU24) Questions and Answers

The app builder should recommend a workflow rule to automate this process. A workflow rule is a type of automation tool that can execute actions based on certain criteria. In this case, the workflow rule can have a criterion that evaluates if the DoNotCall checkbox is checked on a Contact record, and then execute a field update action that sets the Phone field to null. Option A, B, and C are not automation tools that can perform this task.

When activating a Lightning page from the Lightning App Builder, three options are available:

Assign the page to a combination of apps and profiles. This option allows users to specify which apps and profiles will see the custom Lightning page instead of the default page.

Make the page the org default. This option makes the custom Lightning page the default for all users in the org regardless of their app or profile.

Make the page the default homepage for specific apps. This option allows users to set different homepages for different apps in Lightning Experience. [Source]

TEXT() is a formula function that converts a picklist value to text. This can be used to display the Type field from the parent object Galaxy on the child record Star. ISPICKVAL() is used to check if a picklist value is equal to a specified value. VALUE() is used to convert text that represents a number to a number. FIND() is used to locate one text string within another text string.

 The app builder should use two options to ensure all contracts route for the correct approval and also prevent the sales rep from making changes to the record while it is being approved:

Create an approval process on the Contract object with criteria set on a second approval step set as ‘Amount__c > 10,000’ and set the approver as director. An approval process is a type of process that automates how Salesforce records are approved in an organization. An approval process can have multiple steps with different criteria and approvers. In this case, the app builder can create an approval process on the Contract object with two steps: one for the sales manager approval and one for the director approval if the contract amount is over $10,0001.

Create a validation rule on the Contract object that prevents updates to the contract record while it is being reviewed. A validation rule is a type of rule that checks data quality by verifying that the data in a record meets certain standards before it can be saved. A validation rule can prevent users from making changes to a record that is in a certain status or stage. In this case, the app builder can create a validation rule on the Contract object that prevents updates to the contract record if its Approval Status field is not equal to Not Submitted2. Option B and D are not options that can ensure all contracts route for the correct approval and also prevent the sales rep from making changes to the record while it is being approved.

Update the organization-wide defaults and create a criteria based sharing rule are two actions that an app builder should complete to implement the change of moving to a more restrictive sharing model while allowing the Sales team to access all account records with the sales record type. Updating the organization-wide defaults can set the baseline level of access for accounts, and creating a criteria based sharing rule can grant additional access based on record type. Updating the Sales profile and creating an owner-based sharing rule are not necessary or sufficient actions for this change.

The two steps that should be suggested to meet these requirements are to select insert null values in settings and to use Data Loader to update leads using the CSV file. Selecting insert null values in settings will allow Data Loader to overwrite existing values with null values. Data Loader is a tool that can import, export, update, or delete large amounts of data.

To ensure that opportunities are submitted into the approval process when their close date is pushed more than 30 days, an app builder should use an automated process to submit the record for approval. An automated process can be created using tools such as Process Builder or Flow Builder, and it can define the criteria and actions for submitting a record for approval. [Source]

 The two recommended solutions for the app builder to give the users appropriate access are creating a criteria based sharing rule to all opportunities with the sales operations public group and adding a permission set with ‘View All" and ‘Modify All’’ opportunity permissions enabled. A criteria based sharing rule can grant read and write access to all opportunities that meet certain criteria to a specified group of users. A permission set can grant additional object-level permissions to users without changing their profiles. Option B is incorrect because adding a manual share for all opportunities with each user on the sales operations team is not scalable or maintainable. Option D is incorrect because creating a criteria-based sharing rule to share all opportunities with the sales operations private group is redundant, as private groups are used to manually share records with individual users or other groups.

To automate the submission of opportunities into the "Secure Commitment" stage and eliminate manual submission for approval, the best feature to use is:

Record-Triggered flow optimized for Actions and Related Records (D). This type of flow allows for complex automation that can include submitting records for approval based on specific criteria being met, such as reaching a particular stage in the opportunity lifecycle. It's particularly suitable for handling related record updates and other actions like submissions for approval, which are integral when an opportunity reaches a certain stage.

Record-Triggered Flow optimized for Fast Field Updates (A) is focused primarily on quick updates to fields and may not handle the complexity of submission for approval processes adequately. Custom button and screen flow (B) could be used to manually trigger processes but does not automate the submission. Platform Event-Triggered flow (C) is typically used for integrations and reacting to system-wide events, not for standard record lifecycle management.

Reference for using Flows in Salesforce, particularly for automating business processes like approval submissions:

Record-Triggered Flows: https://help.salesforce.com/articleView?id=sf.flow_considerations_trigger_record.htm &type=5

Related record and Tabs. These are correct because the related record component allows service agents to view and edit fields from a related record on the same page, and the tabs component allows service agents to switch between different views of related lists or other components on the same page.

Feed Tracking is the Chatter feature that allows field value changes for certain fields to show up on Chatter. Thanks, Publisher Actions, and Topics are other Chatter features, but they do not relate to field value changes.

Criteria-based sharing rules are the best tool to use for automatically sharing records based on specific criteria, such as the opportunity type being "Service Agreement." This rule can share opportunities with all users in a particular role, such as the Service Manager role, when the criteria are met, thereby adhering to the private sharing model while still providing necessary access.

A: Owner-based sharing rules focus on the record owner's role or group, not the record type.

C: Apex sharing is used for more complex scenarios not easily handled by declarative sharing settings.

 A permission set containing the salary record type and assigning it to the appropriate users would allow only those users to create salary applicant records, while still allowing all users to view all applicant records. This is the most granular and flexible way to meet the requirement

Formula fields in Salesforce can use various functions including text, mathematical, and logical functions to create simple or complex expressions. They can handle data from fields of the same record. Option C, "A combination of the Opportunity's Text and a Description fields," is a valid configuration for a formula field as it involves simple concatenation of text fields, which is supported.Options A, B, and D exceed the capabilities of formula fields:

A: Hyperlinks to other objects using formula fields do not directly support navigation to parent records of a different object.

B: Rich Text and HTML formatting are not supported in formula fields.

Updating the existing change set with the new changes and redeploying is the most efficient way to move the updated components to the Developer Pro Sandbox.References:

Salesforce Help - Change Sets

To configure a custom Lightning component for use in a record page, the app builder needs to edit a record page using the Lightning App Builder and drag the component onto the page. The Page Layout editor and the App Manager are not used for this purpose

Putting the SC in the role hierarchy above the technicians whose work orders they review will provide the required access, given a private data model. The role hierarchy determines how users can access records they do not own. Users at any given role level can view, edit, and report on all data owned by or shared with users below them in the role hierarchy.

The two reasons to create an unmanaged package are to distribute open-source projects on the AppExchange and to deploy from a Developer Edition environment. An unmanaged package is a collection of components that can be installed in any Salesforce org but cannot be upgraded or controlled by the developer. An unmanaged package can be used to share open-source projects or to deploy components from a Developer Edition environment to another org.

The app builder should consider two things before overriding standard buttons:

Standard buttons can be overridden with a Visualforce page. A Visualforce page is a web page that displays custom user interface elements using Visualforce markup and Apex code. A Visualforce page can be used to override a standard button and provide custom functionality or logic3.

Standard buttons that are not available for overrides can still be hidden on page layouts. A page layout is a layout that determines how fields, related lists, and buttons are arranged on a record detail or edit page. A page layout can be used to hide a standard button that cannot be overridden by removing it from the layout4. Option A and D are not things that the app builder should consider before overriding standard buttons.

Moving the reports from the Unfiled Public Reports folder and adding them to a new change set is what the app builder should do to deploy the reports to production. According to the Salesforce documentation, “Reports in the Unfiled Public Reports folder aren’t available for deployment.” Moving the reports to the Untried Public Reports folder, recreating the reports in production, and adding the reports to an unmanaged package are not necessary or recommended actions.

 A record-triggered flow can be used to automate actions when a record is created or updated. In this case, a record-triggered flow can be configured to create a new opportunity and send an email to the contracts team when an opportunity is marked as closed won.

The best practice that the app builder should follow when building out automation is one record change process per object. A record change process is a type of process in Process Builder that starts when a record is created or updated. Having one record change process per object can avoid conflicts or errors when multiple processes try to update the same record at the same time. Option A is incorrect because one workflow rule per object is not a best practice, as workflow rules are considered legacy tools and have limitations compared to Process Builder. Option B is incorrect because one flow per object is not a best practice, as flows are more complex and require more resources than processes. Option C is incorrect because one invocable process per object is not a best practice, as invocable processes are used to invoke other processes from within a process or a flow.

A: Number fields and C: Text fields can be set as External IDs. These field types are suitable for housing unique identifiers from external systems.References:

Salesforce Help - External ID Fields

Changing custom field types may result in data loss if the new field type is incompatible with the old one. For example, changing a text field to a number field may cause text values to be deleted. Field history tracking records value changes of 255 characters or less. If a rich text field value exceeds this limit, only the first 255 characters are tracked.

Partial Copy Sandboxes are ideal for testing and development purposes as they include a subset of production data and can be refreshed more frequently than Full Copy sandboxes.References:

Salesforce Help - Types of Sandboxes

The most likely reason why users are unable to view the custom Lightning component on mobile devices is that the component has been developed for Desktop Pages only. Some components are not supported on mobile devices or have different behavior on mobile devices. An app builder should check the component documentation or metadata to see if it is compatible with mobile devices.

The deployed permission set will merge with the existing permission set in production, meaning changes made in the sandbox will be added to the existing permission set after deployment.References:

Salesforce Help - Permission Sets

Updating the account search layouts search results columns displayed and updating the account search filter fields can improve an end user’s search experience by showing more relevant information and allowing more refined filtering. The view filter settings and the accounts tab columns displayed are not related to the search functionality

Highlights Panel. This is correct because the highlights panel component displays key fields from a record at the top of the page, and it can be configured to show up to 10 fields.

The Invoice Number field should be a Text field and marked as a unique external ID field. This will allow the migration of invoices from an external system while maintaining their original Invoice Number. It will also ensure that each new Invoice created in Salesforce has a unique Invoice Number.

 A custom button, a validation rule, and record types can be used to meet the requirement of hiding the convert button on leads until the lead status picklist is set to qualified. The custom button can replace the standard convert button and invoke a validation rule that checks the lead status. The record types can be used to assign different page layouts with different buttons for different lead statuses

The steps that the app builder should take to meet these requirements are creating a Partial Copy Sandbox and using a sandbox template. A Partial Copy Sandbox can include data records, exclude confidential objects, and be refreshed weekly. A sandbox template can specify which objects and data are copied from the production org to the sandbox org. Option A is incorrect because creating a Full Sandbox and using a sandbox template is not necessary for this requirement, as Full Sandboxes copy all data and metadata from the production org and can only be refreshed every 29 days. Option B is incorrect because creating a Developer Pro Sandbox and scheduling Data Loader to download selected object data weekly is not feasible for this requirement, as Developer Pro Sandboxes do not include data records by default and Data Loader cannot be scheduled to run weekly. Option D is incorrect because creating a Developer Sandbox and scheduling Data Loader to download selected object data weekly is not feasible for this requirement, as Developer Sandboxes do not include data records by default and Data Loader cannot be scheduled to run weekly.

Cloud Kicks needs to insert 25,000 records with deduplication for the Race_Track__c custom object. Here's the reasoning for choosing Data Loader:

Data Loader: This is the appropriate tool for importing large volumes of data (up to 5 million records) into Salesforce. It also provides deduplication options through Salesforce’s native matching rules or by implementing external checks. Data Loader is highly scalable, and for 25,000 records, it is well-suited because it can handle more than the Import Wizard's record limits.

Option A (Import Wizard): The Import Wizard is not a good choice here because it supports up to 50,000 records, which may seem acceptable. However, it is generally recommended for smaller data imports, and deduplication options are limited compared to what Data Loader offers. Additionally, for bulk operations like 25,000 records, Data Loader is more efficient and robust.

The app builder should use the Path feature to provide the functionality that the VP of Sales wants. The Path feature allows an app builder to create a visual representation of the stages in a business process, such as the Opportunity sales process. The app builder can also add key fields, guidance, and resources for each stage to help sales reps gather information and complete tasks4. Option A, C, and D are not features that can provide this functionality.

An update record action with a related record component on the Opportunity layout allows users to edit related Account records directly.References:

Salesforce Help - Creating Quick Actions

Changing the data type of a field used in an apex class from number to text will require the app builder to perform additional steps in order to retain existing functionalities. This is because changing the data type of a field may affect the apex code that references or manipulates the field value, and may cause compilation errors or unexpected results. The app builder will need to update the apex code to handle the new data type and ensure that the logic and calculations are still correct. Option B is incorrect because changing the data type of a field used in a report from a text to an encrypted field will not require additional steps, as encrypted fields can still be used in reports with some limitations. Option C is incorrect because changing the data type of a field used as an external id from number to text will not require additional steps, as external id fields can be either number or text. Option D is incorrect because changing the data type of a field used in lead conversion from number to text will not require additional steps, as lead conversion fields can be mapped regardless of their data types.

To manage field editability based on the opportunity status:

C. Use field-level security on page layouts with record types to restrict editing fields. This combination allows for different layouts and editable fields based on the status of the record (e.g., closed or open).

Steps to implement:

Create or adjust record types for open and closed opportunities.

For each record type, create a specific page layout.

On the page layout for closed opportunities, set the majority of fields to read-only using field-level security, except for the 'Post-Close Follow-up Date' and 'Post-Close Follow-up Comments' fields.

Assign the appropriate page layouts to the respective record types.

Update profiles or permission sets to use these record types and page layouts accordingly.

This setup ensures that sales reps can modify fields only when the opportunity is open, and the sales operations team can edit specific fields after closure.

For more information on using record types and page layouts, check Salesforce's documentation on Record Types.

A text-only Visualforce page can be used to show a text notification on a case record page based on a condition. The Visualforce component can be dragged into the Case Lightning page and its visibility can be set to show when the account support level is platinum. This is the simplest and most flexible way to meet the requirement

All data should be backed up before converting a text field to a picklist, as some data may be lost or truncated during the conversion. Changing a field type will remove existing field history, as the history tracking values are not converted

Ursa Major Solar requires a new field called Planet Details on the Planet object, where users can write detailed descriptions that can include pictures and links. The Rich Text Area field type is the best fit for this requirement.

Option B (Rich Text Area): A Rich Text Area field allows users to enter text with formatting options such as bold, italics, bullets, and numbering. Additionally, it supports inserting images and hyperlinks, which matches the requirement of including pictures and links in the description.

To facilitate quick managerial sign-off on discounted opportunities:

B. Dynamic Actions: Allows the display of specific actions on the Opportunity record page based on certain conditions, like the discount percentage.

D. Approval Process: Configures a formal sign-off process for records meeting specific criteria, such as discount ranges between 20% to 30%.

Steps to set up:

Configure an approval process for opportunities where the discount is between 20% and 30%.

Use Dynamic Actions to conditionally show the approval action directly on the Opportunity record page based on the discount percentage.

This setup allows sales managers to efficiently review and approve discounted deals directly from the Opportunity record page.

For guidance on setting up approval processes and dynamic actions, refer to Dynamic Actions in Salesforce.

The correct method to upgrade an unmanaged package that is installed in a production environment is to use the update link provided on the Installed Packages page. This process ensures that any modifications or additions in the package are properly integrated without the need to uninstall the previous version, thus preserving existing customizations and data.

A: Uninstalling removes all associated data and customizations, which is not advisable.

B: The Install Wizard is used for initial installations, not upgrades.

To allow users access to Flows, Salesforce offers multiple integration points:

A. Quick Action: Flows can be initiated from record pages, the app utility bar, or global actions using Quick Actions. This allows users to execute flows relevant to specific records or global processes.

C. Flow Launcher: A component available in Lightning App Builder that enables users to start flows directly from a Lightning page.

Steps to set up these features:

For Quick Actions, navigate to Setup → Object Manager → select object → Buttons, Links, and Actions → New Action → Action Type (Flow).

For Flow Launcher, navigate to Lightning App Builder → select the page → drag the Flow component to the desired section of the page → configure it to launch the specific flow.

For more information on integrating Flows, check the Salesforce documentation on Flow Distribution.

 It will fail if there is a feature only available in the next version. According to the Salesforce documentation, “If your sandbox is on a newer version than your production org, you can’t deploy any components that are new in the sandbox version.” The change set components will not be upgraded to the next version in production, the change set will not be automatically deployed when production is upgraded, and the deployment is possible if there are no new features involved.

 One of the easiest ways to display real-time stock price for each account is to install a solution from the AppExchange, such as Stock Price Lightning Component3. This component can be added to any record page using the Lightning App Builder.

The best actions to take to avoid creating duplicate leads when uploading a list of 400 leads are to utilize a Lead Matching Rule and corresponding Duplicate Rule to block newly created duplicate leads, and to upload the lead list using the import wizard and select a Matching type to prevent duplicate lead creation. The Lead Matching Rule defines the criteria for identifying duplicate leads, and the Duplicate Rule defines the actions to take when a duplicate is detected. The import wizard allows users to choose a Matching type based on the Lead Matching Rule and block or allow duplicates. Using Data Loader’s update function or enabling Duplicate Matching in the Data Management section will not prevent duplicate lead creation.

The two components that could be included on the layout to display the actions are the Highlights panel and the Path. The Highlights panel is a component that shows key information and actions for a record. It can display up to 10 actions from the Mobile & Lightning Actions section of the page layout. The Path is a component that shows the stages of a process, such as a sales process or a service process. It can display up to 5 actions from the Mobile & Lightning Actions section of the page layout. The Chatter and Activities components do not display actions from the Mobile & Lightning Actions section of the page layout. They display other types of actions, such as posting, commenting, liking, logging a call, creating a task, or sending an email.

Using Process Builder on Opportunities and a Chatter post action, and enabling Feed Tracking on Opportunities are two configurations that an app builder can recommend to meet the requirement of notifying and tracking changes to an Opportunity Close Date. Process Builder can create a process that triggers a Chatter post action when the Close Date field is changed on an Opportunity. Feed Tracking can enable tracking of field history for the Close Date field on the Opportunity feed. Creating an Opportunity outbound message and activating Historical Trending for Opportunities are not valid configurations for this requirement.

The app builder has two options available when defining an object-specific Create Record custom action:

Pre-Defining field values on the target object. This means that the app builder can specify default values for certain fields on the target object when creating a new record using the custom action.

Specifying the fields and layout of the action. This means that the app builder can choose which fields to include in the action and how they are arranged on the screen. Option B and D are not options available when defining an object-specific Create Record custom action.

The best Lightning component to add to the layout to display the ‘New Task’ custom action is Highlights panel. This component shows key information and actions for a record, such as its name, owner, and custom actions. Related record, related lists, and activities are not Lightning components that display custom actions. See [this article] for more information on Highlights panel.

To create a custom object along with multiple fields and relationships efficiently from a single interface, the Schema Builder is the ideal tool:

A. Schema Builder. This graphical tool provides a drag-and-drop interface for creating and modifying objects and fields in Salesforce, allowing for a visual layout of database schema.

Steps to use Schema Builder:

Go to Setup → Schema Builder.

Drag the 'Object' element into the schema area to create a new custom object.

Define the object's properties (e.g., label, API name).

Drag field elements like Text, Number, or Lookup into the object to create fields.

Configure each field's properties according to your requirements.

Connect objects via lookup or master-detail relationships by dragging the relationship fields between them.

Save the layout to create all elements in Salesforce.

For more information, review Salesforce's Schema Builder documentation.

The app builder should verify that there is an Apex test that provides test coverage for the Flow. An Apex test is a unit test that verifies the functionality and quality of Apex code. Apex tests are required to deploy any change that contains Apex code or references Apex code, such as an auto launched flow3. The app builder should ensure that there is an Apex test that covers at least 75% of the Flow logic before deploying it to production in an active state4. Option B, C, and D are not things that the app builder should take into consideration when planning the deployment.

The best choice for capturing geographic location data, such as crossroads or location markers provided by customers, is the Geolocation field type. This field type stores latitude and longitude data, allowing accurate pinpointing of locations on a map. Geolocation fields are suitable for any application that needs to handle coordinates for mapping and proximity calculations.

A: Number field is not specific enough for geographical coordinates.

C: Reference fields link to other records, not geographical data.

Lookup is the type of relationship that would be set up to meet the specification of pairing experienced Realtors with new Realtors. According to the Salesforce documentation, “A lookup relationship creates a loose association between objects. The lookup field allows users to select a record from another object.” Indirect lookup is used for junction objects on different platforms. Many-to-many is not a type of relationship, but a result of using junction objects. Master-detail is used for creating parent-child relationships.

A Scheduled Triggered flow can be used to increment a custom field on the Case object each time the case is reopened, effectively tracking the number of reopenings.References:

Salesforce Help - Scheduled Flows

To provide a help guide to enable reps to easily get help where needed during the different sales processes, an app builder should recommend Path. Path is a component that displays the key fields and guidance for each stage of a sales process on an object’s record page. Users can see where they are in the process, update the stage and fields, and access resources such as tips and links. [Source]

Sharing rules can be used to extend access to records owned by certain users or roles to other users or roles. In this case, a sharing rule can grant read-only or read/write access to sales-owned accounts to the marketing team

Escalation rules and Process Builder are two automation processes that can be used to send a notification when a case stays in the ‘’ new’’ status for more than four business hours. Escalation rules can define criteria and actions for escalating cases based on time or other factors. Process Builder can create a time-based action that triggers an email alert when the case status is ‘’ new’’ for more than four business hours. Flow Builder and Scheduled Apex are not necessary for this requirement.

The app builder should add the fields to the page layout on the object to ensure users can access the new object and fields. The page layout determines which fields are visible and editable on the record detail page. Option A, B, and C are not necessary for this purpose.

The app builder should know that a field type change is included in the change set and that it can cause a delay in the deployment. A field type change is a change that modifies the data type of an existing field, such as changing a text field to a number field. A field type change can affect many aspects of Salesforce functionality, such as validation rules, formulas, workflows, reports, dashboards, and more. Therefore, deploying a change set that contains a field type change can take longer than usual and require more testing and verification. Option A, C, and D are not changes that can cause a delay in the deployment.

Roll-up summary fields can be used to count the number of related open cases for an account, including those from parent accounts if the relationship allows roll-up summaries.References:

[Salesforce Help - Roll-up Summary Fields](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=sf.fields_about_roll_up up_summary_fields.htm&type=5)

This formula concatenates the four custom fields for the Galactic Vendor’s location into a single text value, separated by commas and spaces. The formula also uses the BR function to insert a line break after the second field, creating two lines of text. Option A, B, and D are not formulas that fulfill the requirement.

A: Setting Sharing Settings to Read Only on both Master-Detail relationship fields ensures that users can view but not edit the master records from the junction object.

D: Creating an owner-based sharing rule that gives Read access to the junction object allows specific users or groups to access and edit records in the Junction object while maintaining the private OWD setting.References:

Salesforce Help - Sharing Settings

The Account record includes Invoice roll-up summary fields. This is correct because roll-up summary fields are only available on the master object in a master-detail relationship, and changing the field type to lookup would delete the roll-up summary fields

The inability to create a Roll-Up Summary field in this context can be attributed to:

B. The organization has Advanced Currency Management enabled. When Advanced Currency Management (ACM) is enabled, it affects how currency data is managed and aggregated, impacting the functionality of roll-up summary fields that involve currency amounts across different records.

To address this limitation, consider using custom reporting or a custom solution like a trigger or a scheduled batch class to manually calculate and update the total.

For more information on limitations with ACM, consult Salesforce's help article on Advanced Currency Management.

Sharing rules and manual sharing are two features that can extend record access beyond the organization-wide defaults. Sharing rules are automatic rules that grant access to groups of users based on certain criteria, such as role, public group, or territory. Manual sharing is a manual way of granting access to individual users or groups by the record owner or someone above them in the role hierarchy. Option B and C are not features that extend record access.

The app builder should use Data Loader to quickly insert a list of over 60,000 net new Accounts. Data Loader is a tool that allows users to insert, update, delete, or export large amounts of data from Salesforce using CSV files or database connections. Data Loader can handle up to 5 million records at a time and supports features such as bulk API, batch operations, mapping files, etc. Data Loader is ideal for loading large data sets into Salesforce quickly and efficiently. Lightning Object Creator is not a valid tool, as it cannot insert data into existing objects. Lightning Object Creator is a tool that allows users to create custom objects from spreadsheet data by uploading a file and mapping columns to fields. It cannot load data into existing objects or handle more than 500 records at a time. Import Wizard is not a valid tool, as it cannot handle more than 50,000 records at a time. Import Wizard is a tool that allows users to insert, update, or delete data from Salesforce using CSV files or Excel files. Import Wizard supports standard objects and some custom objects and provides features such as field mapping, duplicate detection, data validation, etc. Import Wizard is ideal for loading small data sets into Salesforce with more control and accuracy.

Workflows that cause each other to fire back and forth recursively can result in workflow limits errors. For example, if workflow A updates a field that triggers workflow B, and workflow B updates a field that triggers workflow A, this can create an infinite loop of workflows that exceed the maximum number of workflow time triggers per hour.

The feature that the app builder should use to allow users to create the opportunity is a quick action. A quick action is a type of custom button or link that can create or update records, log calls, send emails, or launch flows from a record page or a global menu. The app builder can create a quick action on the account object that creates an opportunity record with pre-populated fields. Option B is incorrect because a default action is not a valid term, but rather a standard action that appears on every record page by default, such as Edit or Delete. Option C is incorrect because a custom button is not suitable for this requirement, as custom buttons can only display a URL or execute JavaScript when clicked. Option D is incorrect because a custom link is not suitable for this requirement, as custom links can only display a URL or execute JavaScript when clicked.

The functionality that should be used to set up packages is namespace. A namespace is a unique identifier that distinguishes one package from another and prevents naming conflicts with other packages or customizations. A namespace also allows developers to expose their code or components for use by other developers through APIs or web services. A description is not a functionality that should be used to set up packages, but a text field that provides information about the package contents or purpose. A description does not prevent conflicts with other packages or customizations. Allow sharing is not a functionality that should be used to set up packages, but a setting that controls whether users can share records owned by other users within their role hierarchy. Allow sharing does not prevent conflicts with other packages or customizations. Help setting is not a functionality that should be used to set up packages, but a setting that determines whether users can access help documentation for standard Salesforce features or custom features within a package. Help setting does not prevent conflicts with other packages or customizations.

If an employee attempts to edit the description field after submitting an opportunity for approval, they will be presented with a ‘Record Lock’ notification. This means that the record is locked for editing while it is in the approval process and only users with the “Modify All” permission or users above them in the role hierarchy can edit it. [Source]

The app builder should create a new roll-up summary field called First Order Date, using Type MIN on the Opportunity Close Date with a filter where IsWon = TRUE. A roll-up summary field is a type of field that calculates values from related records and displays them on the parent record. In this case, the app builder can create a roll-up summary field on the Account object that calculates the minimum (earliest) value of the Opportunity Close Date field from the related opportunities where IsWon = TRUE. This will show when customers made their first purchase. Option B, C, and D are not correct ways to use a roll-up summary field to meet the requirement.

An Approval Process is the appropriate functionality to ensure all free parts receive the marketing director's sign-off. It allows for setting up a process for record approval.References:

Salesforce Help - Approval Processes

A flow is an application that automates a business process by collecting data and performing operations in your org or an external system. Flows can also manipulate data in your org by creating, updating, deleting, or submitting records for approval. You can use flows to update fields on related records when a certain event occurs, such as closing a work order. In this case, a flow can be used to update the last maintenance date field on the Asset record when a maintenance work order gets closed.

 Two Master-detail relationships on a new custom object is how an app builder should configure the data model to create a relationship between Contact and Solar Project objects where each Contact can be related to multiple Solar Project objects, and each Solar Project can have multiple Contacts associated with it. This is an example of a many-to-many relationship that requires a junction object with two master-detail relationships. One Master-detail relationship on Contact and one Master-detail relationship on Solar Project, two Lookup relationships on a new custom object, and one Lookup relationship on Contact and one Lookup relationship on Solar Project are not valid or correct ways to create a many-to-many relationship.

To import opportunities with the proper country currency, the app builder needs to include the currency ISO code in all currency fields in the import file, and use Data Loader to import the records. Data Loader supports importing multiple currencies, while Import Wizard does not. The currency ISO code column in the import file specifies the currency for each record

The best way to help the sales manager achieve their goal of reducing manual data entry from business cards is to research and evaluate data enrichment products on the AppExchange that can automate data entry. Data enrichment products can scan business cards, extract relevant information, and populate fields in Salesforce records. This can save time, improve data quality, and enhance productivity. Option B, C, and D are not effective solutions for this goal.

A flow or a process can be used to assign a permission set to new users. A flow can be triggered by a record change or an invocable action, while a process can launch a flow as an immediate or scheduled action

Data is unable to be deployed with change sets. Change sets are used to deploy metadata components such as custom objects, fields, workflows, reports, etc. from one Salesforce org to another. However, change sets do not include any data or records from the source org. Users will need to use other tools such as Data Loader or Data Import Wizard to migrate data between orgs. [Source]

For an app builder who needs to ensure all fields from the page layout are visible on a Lightning Record Page after using the Lightning Object Creator, the correct component to use is:

Record Detail (C). The Record Detail component automatically displays all fields that are included on the assigned page layout for the object. It is designed to reflect the layout configuration and is the simplest way to ensure all fields are presented as configured in the layout editor.

Highlights Panel (A) is used primarily to display key fields at the top of the record page, providing a summary view rather than full field visibility. Recommendations (B) is used for displaying prompts or suggestions and does not display record fields. Path (D) is useful for displaying stages in a process (like sales stages or service processes) and does not show field data directly.

Making the Opportunity type a required field on the initial Opportunity page layout and using automation to fill in the type field to a record type is a way to limit the number of fields users are required to fill out when creating a new Opportunity. This way, the app builder can assign different page layouts for different record types based on the Opportunity type. The other options are not feasible or effective

Lightning Object Creator is a tool that allows app builders to create an object with fields and import data from a spreadsheet simultaneously. Import Wizard and Data Loader are tools for importing data into existing objects, not creating new objects. Schema Builder is a tool for creating and modifying objects and fields, but not importing data.

 Create a page layout with the field and use field-level security to hide the field from all other users is how the app builder should meet the requirement of making the comment field on Review private to anyone outside of HR department. Field-level security can control which profiles can view or edit a field on a record. Create an Apex sharing rule, create a sharing rule to share the field with VP of HR with Role and Subordinates, and create a page layout with the field for HR users and another page layout without the field for all other users are not valid or feasible solutions for this requirement.

 A geolocation field can be used to capture the coordinates of a location in latitude and longitude. This field type can also be used in reports, formulas, validation rules, and Apex
