Q

The customer service manager of Cosmic Electronics would like to be notified daily via email if the number of open cases exceeds 100. What is the best way for an admin to meet this requirement? Choose 1

A.) Create a workflow rule with an automated action that sends an email alert to the manager
B.) Schedule an open case report for a refresh so that it runs daily and send its results via email to the manager
C.) Ask the customer service manager to subscribe to an open case report for notifications.
D.) Create a flow that sends an automatic email to the manager based on custom criteria

A

C.) Ask the customer service manager to subscribe to an open case report for notifications.

End users can subscribe to reports to trigger notifications based on conditions and frequency. In this case, report notifications can be triggered if the aggregate “Record Count” is greater than 100. It is possible for an admin to schedule a report for a refresh so that it is run and emailed to the manager daily, but this option would not allow the admin to set the conditions that trigger the report to run. The manager only wants to be notified if a certain condition is true.

A workflow rule can be triggered when a record is created or edited and meets the criteria specified in the rule. However, it cannot be used to trigger an email based on an aggregate such as the number of open cases. Although a flow could be used to count the number of open cases, it cannot be triggered automatically based on custom criteria to send an email to a specific user

Q

A sales manager requested the admin to create a dashboard comparing the total sales target to the individual sales target and have it displayed on every Sales Rep’s home page. He insisted that each Sales Rep should be able to see data specific to the access that each individual Sales Rep has; however, the Sales Manager should see data of all Sales Reps. A role hierarchy has been set up for the organization, and the “Grant Access Using Hierarchies” option has been enabled for the objects containing the relevant report data. While creating the Dashboard, which “View Dashboard As” setting should the admin select? Choose 1

A.) Run as the report user
B.) Run as the dashboard viewer
C.) Run as the specified user
D.) Run as an admin user

A

B.) Run as the dashboard viewer

A dynamic dashboard can be run as either a specific user, the user that setup the dashboard or the dashboard viewer. If the setting is et to dashboard viewer, it runs using the security settings of the user viewing the dashboard. Each user sees the dashboard according to their own access to data. Note that in order for the Sales Manager to see the Sales Rep’s data, a role hierarchy must be set up and “Grant Access Using Hierarchies” must be enabled for the objects containing the relevant report data.

Q

The cosmic computing call center manger has requested a new Case report to assist in the analysis of how long individual call center staff are taking to accept cases. “Case Accepted Time Stamp” is an existing custom field that is populated when the call center agent accepts the case. How could this best be achieved using Lightning Report Builder? Choose 1

A.) Add a row-level formula that calculates the difference between “Date/Time Opened” and “Case Accepted Time Stamp” in the new report
B.) Create a new Case custom formula that calculates the difference between “Date/Time Opened” and “Case Accepted Time Stamp” and add it to the new report.
C.) Add a bucket column that calculates the difference between “Date/Time Opened” and “Case Accepted Time Stamp” in the new report
D.) Add the standard “Case Age” field to the new report as this captures the difference between ‘Date/Time Opened” and “Case Accepted Time Stamp”

A

A.) Add a row-level formula that calculates the difference between “Date/Time Opened” and “Case Accepted Time Stamp” in the new report

A report row-level formula is available in Lightning Report Builder and can be used to calculate the difference between two date/time fields. It can be summarized; for this scenario, the average difference grouped by call center agent would be appropriate. While a new custom Case formula field could be created and inserted into the report, which will also meet the requirement, for this scenario there is no indication the information is needed outside of the report; so the row-level formula is more appropriate. A bucket column is not used to calculate differences between dates, and the standard “Case Age” field displays the length of time a case has been open.

A

A.) Create a new custom report type of “Contacts with Inquiries with Activities”

Since the Sales Manager wants to see the activities associated with inquiries that are related to contacts, a custom report type of “Contacts with Inquiries with Activities” needs to be created. It can be used to display contacts which have at least one inquiry, with the inquiry related to at least one activity.

It is not possible to create a report type of “Activities with Inquiries with Contacts” since “Activities” cannot be the primary object for creating the custom report type. Although it can be selected as the primary object, it cannot have further relatable objects. Also, there would not be any existing report types called “Contacts with Inquiries” or “Inquiries with Activities”. There is a standard report type called “Activities with Inquiries” but it would not show information about the related contacts.

A

B.) The new field will be automatically inserted into all existing Opportunity report types

Newly created custom fields are automatically added to standard report types for the object (Opportunity in this scenario). Custom fields are not automatically added to existing custom report types for the object (although this is planned for a future SFDC release). To add the custom field, the layout of the report type needs to be edited.

However, if a new custom report type is created after the custom field was created, the new field will automatically be included within the new custom report type. Opportunities with Accounts is not a standard report type for the new field would not be automatically added to the exisitng (custom) report types. Opportunities with products is a standard report type so the new field will be auto-added.
