Cloud Kicks generates leads for its different product categories (shoes, apparel, and accessories) through many different sources. While some lead sources are used for all three categories, other lead sources are specific to a single category. The VP of marketing requests that only the proper lead sources be displayed based on the product category chosen. How should the administrator configure Salesforce to meet this requirement?

A. Create a page layout for each category and filter the Lead Source field based on category.

B. Create a dependency between the Product Category field and Lead Source field.

C. Create business processes and record types for each of the three product categories.

D. Create a single business process, then create record types for each product category.

B.   Create a dependency between the Product Category field and Lead Source field.




Explanation:

To display only the proper lead sources based on the product category chosen, an administrator should create a dependency between the Product Category field and Lead Source field on Lead object. A dependency is a relationship between two picklist fields that restricts the values available in one picklist based on the value selected in another picklist. For example, an administrator can create a dependency that shows only Online Store and Social Media as lead sources if Product Category is Shoes, but shows only Trade Show and Magazine as lead sources if Product Category is Apparel. Creating a page layout for each category, creating business processes and record types for each category, or creating a single business process with record types for each category will not display only the proper lead sources based on the product category chosen.

Sales and Customer Care at Ursa Major Solar need to see different fields on the Case related list from the Account record. Sales users want to see Case created date and status while Customer Care would like to see owner, status, and contact. What should the administrator use to achieve this?

A. Related Lookup Filters

B. Compact Layout Editor

C. Page Layout editor

D. Search Layout Editor

C.   Page Layout editor




Explanation:

Page layout editor is a tool that allows you to customize the layout and organization of detail and edit pages for a specific object and record type combination. You can also use page layout editor to customize related lists on detail pages by adding or removing fields, changing column order, sorting records, etc. To meet the requirement of showing different fields on the Case related list from the Account record for Sales and Customer Care users, you need to use page layout editor to modify the related list properties for each page layout assigned to those users.

Support reps at Cloud Kicks (CK) are reporting that when they try to close a case, the Closed option in the Case Status picklist is missing. CK has asked the administrator to find a solution. Why are the support reps unable to see the Closed option in the specified pic list?

A. The Case record type is missing Closed as a picklist value.

B. The Close Case page layout must be used to close a case.

C. The Show Closed Statuses m Case Status Field checkbox is set to the default.

D. The Support Process being used omits Closed as a status choice.

D.   The Support Process being used omits Closed as a status choice.




Explanation:

A support process is a feature that allows administrators to define and enforce the stages that a case or work order must go through based on its record type. A support process determines which values are available for the status field for each record type. If a support process omits a certain value for the status field, such as Closed, then users will not be able to see or select that value when working with cases or work orders of that record type.

Universal Containers has two sales teams, Sales team A and Sales team B. Each team has their own role in the role hierarchy. Both roles are subordinates of the same Manager role. How Should the administrator share records owned by sales team A with Sales team B?

A. Hierarchical sharing

B. Use Manual sharing

C. Criteria based sharing

D. Owner based sharing

B.   Use Manual sharing




Explanation:

Manual sharing allows record owners to share individual records with other users or groups. This is useful when one-off sharing is needed for a specific situation. Hierarchical sharing, criteria-based sharing and owner-based sharing are not suitable for this scenario because they are based on predefined rules or roles that do not match the requirement.
