Salesforce Platform-App-Builder Actual Questions

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.

 The app builder should use the Path component to meet the requirement of tracking different fields at each stage of the Opportunity sales process. The Path component is a Lightning component that displays the key fields and guidance for each stage of a standard or custom picklist field, such as the Opportunity Stage field. The app builder can configure the Path component to show the fields that need to be filled out and provide recommendations and sales strategies for each stage3. Option A, B, and C are not configuration steps that can meet this requirement.

When creating a new field, if an app builder does not want the field to be automatically added to pre-existing custom report types, the step to take is:

• Deselect 'Add Field to Custom Report Types' (D). This option is available when creating or editing a custom field and ensures that the field is not automatically included in report types where 'Automatically add new custom fields to report type layouts' is enabled.

Removing the field from page layouts (A) affects the visibility on record pages but not reports. Adjusting visibility (B) or setting read-only access (C) for report profiles affects user permissions to see the field in reports, but does not remove the field from report types if it was previously added.

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.
