Explanation

A delegated administrator is a user who has been granted limited administrative privileges by an administrator through delegated administration groups. Delegated administrators can perform some administrative tasks without having full access to Setup. Some functions that delegated administrators can perform are:
A) Set up users and password management.
Delegated administrators can set up and manage users who belong to specified roles or territories, including creating, editing, freezing, and unlocking users; resetting passwords; assigning permission sets;
and managing public groups.

D) Make updates to permission set configurations Permission sets are collections of settings and permissions that can extend users' functional access without changing their profiles. Delegated administrators can make updates to permission set configurations if they have been granted access to manage users by an administrator.

Question 2 Single choice

Cloud Kicks (CK) completed a project in a sandbox environment and wants to migrate the changes to production. CK split the deployment into two distinct change sets. Change set 1 has new custom objects and fields. Change set 2 has updated profiles and automation.

What should the administrator consider before deploying the change sets?

  1. A

    The Field-Level Security will not be deployed with the profiles in change set 2.

  2. B

    Change set 2 needs to be deployed first.

  3. C

    Automations need to be deployed in the same change set in order to be activated.

  4. D

    Both change sets must be deployed simultaneously.

Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

When deploying profiles using change sets, the field-level security settings are not included unless the fields themselves are also part of the change set. Therefore, the administrator should consider adding the new custom fields to change set 2 along with the profiles, or manually adjust the field-level security after deployment.

Question 4 Single choice

A sales user is assigned to a permission set group that gives them Modify All access to Accounts. An administrator assigns the same user to a muting permission set that mutes Deletes access on Account.

What level of access will the sales user have on the Account object?

  1. A

    Read-only

  2. B

    Modify All

  3. C

    Read, Create, and Edit

  4. D

    No Access

Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

Modify All is the level of access that the sales user will have on the Account object after being assigned to a muting permission set that mutes Delete access on Account. Muting permissions are a way to reduce or remove access to objects or fields for users who are assigned to permission set groups. Muting permissions can only mute object-level permissions, such as Create, Read, Edit, Delete, View All, or Modify All, but not field-level permissions or other permissions. Muting permissions can only reduce or remove access that is granted by other permission sets or permission set groups within the same permission set group, but not by profiles or other sources of access. Therefore, in this case, the muting permission set will only mute the Delete access on Account that is granted by the permission set group, but not the Modify All access that is also granted by the permission set group.

Question 5 Single choice

What would prevent a user from syncing a quote with an opportunity?

  1. A

    The quote has a validation rule preventing it from being updated.

  2. B

    Another quote is already synced with the opportunity and is awaiting approval.

  3. C

    Another quote is already synced with the opportunity.

  4. D

    The quote has already passed its expiration date.

Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

Another quote is already synced with the opportunity will prevent a user from syncing a quote with an opportunity. Only one quote can be synced with an opportunity at a time. If a user tries to sync another quote, they will get an error message saying that the opportunity already has a synced quote.

Question 6 Single choice

Northern Trail Outfitters requires the sales user to input a use case before moving the opportunity stage to qualified. A consultant has reviewed the business requirement and ran a report to check the state of data completion. When pulling a report for opportunities in the qualified stage or beyond, it appears that only 30% of records have a use case filled out with varying text strings.

What should the administrator recommend?

  1. A

    Write a record-triggered flow that populates the Use Case field when an opportunity is closed.

  2. B

    Create a validation rule and add the Use Case field to the Stage Guidance in Path.

  3. C

    Make the Use Case field required on the master Opportunity layout.

  4. D

    Use a quick action with the Use Case field in the layout, and add it as a Lightning component.

Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

A validation rule and a stage guidance in Path are two features that can help ensure that users input a use case before moving the opportunity stage to qualified. A validation rule is a formula that validates the data entered by users and prevents records from being saved if they do not meet certain criteria. In this case, a validation rule can be used to check if the Use Case field is blank when the Stage field is changed to Qualified, and display an error message if so. A stage guidance in Path is a feature that displays helpful information or tips for each stage of a sales process on an opportunity record page. In this case, adding the Use Case field to the stage guidance in Path can remind users to fill out this field before moving to the next stage.

Question 7 Single choice

An administrator created and activated several record-triggered flows that are configured to run before the record is saved on the same object.

What should the administrator consider about the order of execution for flows?

  1. A

    The flow type will determine the order of execution.

  2. B

    The last created date of the flow will determine the order.

  3. C

    The order of flow execution is unpredictable.

  4. D

    The flows will execute in alphabetical order based on their names.

Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The order of execution for flows that are configured to run before the record is saved on the same object is unpredictable and may vary depending on factors such as flow version, flow name, or flow creation date.
Therefore, it is recommended to avoid creating multiple flows with the same trigger conditions and instead consolidate them into a single flow.

Question 8 Single choice

  2. B

    Workflow rule

  3. C

    Record-triggered flow

  4. D

    Assignment rule

Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

Record-triggered flow is a feature that allows administrators to automate actions that occur when a record is created or updated. Record-triggered flow can perform actions such as updating fields, creating records, sending emails, or invoking Apex code. Record-triggered flow can be used to update the account checkbox field `Opportunity Created' when at least one related opportunity has been created

Show answer and explanation

Explanation

Data Loader is a tool that allows administrators to import or export large amounts of data (more than 50,000 records) from or to Salesforce using CSV files. Data Loader can be used for inserting, updating, deleting, upserting, exporting, or extracting data. Bulk API is an API that allows administrators to process large batches of records asynchronously in the background. Bulk API can handle millions of records with high performance and minimal system resources. By using Data Loader with Bulk API enabled, an administrator can import a large amount of historical data (more than 100,000 records) from another system efficiently and securely.

Question 10 Single choice

Sales reps at AW Computing hove been reporting that contact phone numbers sometimes revert book to on old value after being updated.

What should the administrator do to resolve this issue?

  1. A

    Schedule Apex jobs.

  2. B

    Delete all workflow rules.

  3. C

    Add an invocable process.

  4. D

    Consolidate automation tools.

Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

One possible cause of unexpected changes to record values is having multiple automation tools that update the same field on the same object. This can create conflicts and overwrite each other's values. To resolve this issue, the administrator should consolidate automation tools and use only one tool per object and field combination. This can help avoid confusion and ensure consistent results.
