The problem of duplicate order records is caused by the integration not being able to identify the existing order record in Salesforce and creating a new one instead. To prevent this, the integration needs to use a unique identifier that can match the order record in both systems. The order number in the OMS can serve as such an identifier, if it is guaranteed to be unique and not reused. Therefore, the following actions can prevent the duplicate order records from being created in Salesforce:

• Option A: Ensure that the order number in the OMS is unique. This will ensure that there is no ambiguity or confusion when matching the order records in both systems.
• Option B: Use the order number from the OMS as an external ID. An external ID is a custom field that can be used to store a unique identifier from an external system. By using the order number from the OMS as an external ID, the integration can use the upsert operation to either insert a new order record or update an existing one based on the external ID value.

 the current user has the permission to delete Account records, and false otherwise. This method is part of the Schema.DescribeSObjectResult class, which provides information about the metadata and permissions of an sObject type. The other options are incorrect because they either use invalid syntax or refer to the wrong object or variable. The accountRec variable is an instance of an Account record, not an sObject type, and it does not have an isDeletable() method. The Account sObject type does not have an isDeletable() method either, it is a property of the Schema.DescribeSObjectResult class. The AccountRec.ObjectType property returns the sObject type of the accountRec variable, which is Account, but it does not have an isDeletable() method either. References:

The Limits class contains methods that return limit information for specific resources, such as the number of DML statements, the amount of CPU time, or the number of SOQL queries. There are two versions of every method: the first returns the amount of the resource that has been used while the second version contains the word limit and returns the total amount of the resource that is available. See Execution Governors and Limits1. References: 1: Limits Class | Apex Reference Guide | Salesforce

 A developer can use a validation rule or a trigger to prevent Opportunities from being edited when they reach the Closed/Won stage. A validation rule can check the stage value and display an error message if the user tries to modify the record. A trigger can also check the stage value and throw an exception if the user tries to update the record. Both of these strategies can enforce the business logic at the database level and prevent unwanted changes.

An after-save flow or the Process Automation settings are not suitable for this requirement, because they are executed after the record is saved to the database. They can perform actions based on the record changes, but they cannot prevent the record from being edited in the first place.

The code should be altered to collect the insert method return value as a SaveResult variable, which can provide information about the success or failure of the insert operation, as well as any errors that occurred. The SaveResult variable can be used to print the error messages or debug logs, or to perform conditional logic based on the outcome of the insert operation. For example, the code can be modified as follows:

Account a = new Account(Name = ‘A’); SaveResult sr = Database.insert(a, false); if (sr.isSuccess()) { System.debug(‘Account inserted successfully’); } else { System.debug('Account insertion failed: ’ + sr.getErrors()[0].getMessage()); }

The second parameter of the Database.insert method is the allOrNone option, which specifies whether to roll back the entire transaction or not if any record fails to insert. Setting it to true or false does not affect the debugging of the issue, but only the behavior of the transaction. Adding a System.debug() statement before the insert method does not help to debug the issue, because it does not provide any information about the insert operation itself. Adding a try/catch around the insert method can help to handle any exceptions that may occur during the insert operation, but it does not provide the same level of detail as the SaveResult variable.

 Declarative development is the process of creating applications using point-and-click tools and configuration settings, without writing code. To build out the database layer for a Salesforce application, declarative developers can use the following options:

• Roll-Up Summaries: These are fields that calculate values from related records, such as the total amount of closed opportunities for an account. Roll-up summaries can be created on master-detail or lookup relationships, and can use filters to specify which records to include in the calculation1.
• Relationships: These are the links between objects that allow data to be shared and accessed across different objects. There are two types of relationships: master-detail and lookup. Master-detail relationships create a parent-child relationship between two objects, where the master record controls certain behaviors of the detail record, such as security and deletion. Lookup relationships create a loose association between two objects, where the lookup field can be optional or required, and the related record can have its own security and owner2.
• Custom Objects and Fields: These are the basic building blocks of any Salesforce application. Custom objects are the tables that store data specific to the organization or the application. Custom fields are the columns that store the attributes of each record in the object. Custom objects and fields can be created and modified using the Object Manager in Setup3.

The number of times a trigger can fire depends on the number of records that are processed and the number of DML operations that are performed. Some operations can cause the trigger to fire multiple times, either by updating the same records or by updating related records. These operations include:

• Process Flows: A process flow is a declarative tool that can automate complex business processes by executing actions based on criteria. A process flow can update the same record that triggered it, or a related record, which can cause the trigger to fire again1.
• Workflow Rules: A workflow rule is a declarative tool that can automate tasks and field updates based on criteria. A workflow rule can update the same record that triggered it, or a related record, which can cause the trigger to fire again2.
• Roll-Up Summary fields: A roll-up summary field is a custom field that aggregates child record information into a parent record. A roll-up summary field can update the parent record when a child record is inserted, updated, deleted, or undeleted, which can cause the trigger to fire again3.

The other options do not affect the number of times a trigger can fire. Criteria-based sharing calculations and email messages do not update records or cause DML operations. References:

• Workflow Rules | Salesforce Help
• Roll-Up Summary Fields | Salesforce Help

 To avoid exceeding the view state limit of 170 KB12, the developer should implement pagination with a StandardSetController. A StandardSetController allows the developer to display a set of records in a Visualforce page with built-in support for pagination, sorting, and filtering3. By using a StandardSetController, the developer can limit the number of records that are displayed and stored in the view state at a time, and provide navigation buttons for the user to access the next or previous set of records.

The other options are not correct because:

• A. Use Lazy loading and a transient List variable. This option is not effective, because lazy loading means that the data is loaded only when it is needed, but it still requires storing the data in the view state. A transient List variable is not included in the view state, but it also means that the data is lost after each request and has to be queried again, which can affect performance and consistency.
• B. Use JavaScript remoting with SOQL Offset. This option is not recommended, because JavaScript remoting does not support pagination, sorting, or filtering, and requires additional JavaScript code to handle the callbacks and display the data. SOQL Offset is also limited to 2,000 records, and can cause performance issues when used with large data sets.
• C. Implement pagination with an OffsetController. This option is not optimal, because an OffsetController is a custom controller that uses SOQL Offset to implement pagination. As mentioned above, SOQL Offset has limitations and drawbacks that make it unsuitable for large data sets.

The correct statement is D, because it uses the SOSL syntax to search for the phrase ‘ACME’ in all fields of the Contact and Lead objects, and returns a list of sObjects that match the criteria. The other statements are incorrect because:

• A uses the SOQL syntax, which can only query one object at a time, and the LIKE operator requires a wildcard character (%) before and after the search term.
• B uses the SOSL syntax, but returns a list of lists of sObjects, which is not the expected output.
• C uses the SOSL syntax, but returns a map of sObjects, which is not the expected output. References:
• SOSL Syntax - Salesforce
• SOSL Statements - Salesforce
• SOQL and SOSL Reference - Salesforce

A polymorphic lookup field is a relationship field that can reference one of several different types of objects. For example, the Who relationship field of a Task can be a Contact or a Lead. The WhatId field on the standard Event object is another example of a polymorphic lookup field, as it can reference any object that allows activities, such as Account, Opportunity, Case, etc. To determine the type of the referenced object, you can use the What.Type field in a SOQL query. You can also use the TYPEOF clause to filter or select fields based on the object type. References:

• Understanding Relationship Fields and Polymorphic Fields
• Working with Polymorphic Relationships in SOQL Queries
• Lookup Search Cheat Sheet

The correct definition of the Apex method is shown in option C. This Apex method is defined as an invocable method, meaning it can be called from a process or flow. It’s marked with the @InvocableMethod annotation. The method returns a list of lists of recommendations and takes a list of ContactWrapper objects as input, which allows for bulk processing of records in flows. References:

The Lead Source field is a standard picklist field that indicates the source of the lead, such as web, phone inquiry, partner referral, and others1. The Lead Source field is related to the contact, account, and opportunity Source fields, and the value can be inherited from one field to the next as a lead progresses through the funnel2. To ensure that a user populates the Lead Source field prior to converting a lead, the best option is to use a validation rule. A validation rule is a formula that evaluates the data in one or more fields and returns a value of true or false3. Validation rules verify that the data a user enters in a record meets the standards you specify before the user can save the record3. By creating a validation rule on the Lead object that checks if the Lead Source field is blank, you can prevent the user from converting the lead without filling in the Lead Source field. You can also display a custom error message to inform the user of the requirement3. For example, the validation rule formula could be:

ISBLANK(LeadSource)

And the error message could be:

Please enter a value for Lead Source before converting the lead.

Using a formula field, Lead Conversion field mapping, or an after trigger on Lead are not effective ways to ensure that the user populates the Lead Source field prior to converting a lead. A formula field is a read-only field that derives its value from a formula expression you define. It cannot be edited by the user and cannot enforce data entry. Lead Conversion field mapping is a way to specify how fields in the lead record are transferred to the fields in the contact, account, and opportunity records during lead conversion. It cannot prevent the user from converting the lead without entering the Lead Source field. An after trigger on Lead is a piece of Apex code that executes after a lead record is inserted, updated, deleted, or undeleted. It cannot validate the data entered by the user before the lead conversion occurs. References: 1 Lead | Object Reference for the Salesforce Platform | Salesforce Developers1, 2 Let’s Talk About Salesforce Lead Source | Salesforce Ben2, 3 Validation Rules | Salesforce Help3, Formula Field | Salesforce Field Reference Guide | Salesforce Developers, Map Lead Fields for Lead Conversion | Salesforce Help, Triggers | Apex Developer Guide | Salesforce Developers

To check the code coverage of a class after running all tests, the developer should view the code coverage percentage for the class using the Overall Code Coverage panel in the Developer Console Tests tab. This panel shows the code coverage for each class and trigger in the org, as well as the overall code coverage percentage. The developer can also double-click on a class or trigger name to see the code coverage details, such as which lines are covered or not covered by tests.

The other options are not correct because:

• A. View the Code Coverage column in the list view on the Apex Classes page. This option only shows the code coverage percentage for each class, but not the details of which lines are covered or not covered by tests. It also does not show the code coverage for triggers or the overall code coverage percentage.
• B. View the Class Test Percentage tab on the Apex Class fist view m Salesforce Setup. This option does not exist in Salesforce Setup. There is no such tab or view for Apex classes.
• D. Select and run the class on the Apex Test Execution page in the Developer Console. This option only runs the test methods in the selected class, but does not show the code coverage for the class or other classes and triggers in the org.

References:

• : Testing and Code Coverage
• : Developer Console

According to the Salesforce Platform Developer I learning objectives and documents, best practices for triggers include modularizing code by using helper classes and ensuring that the trigger only contains logic to determine which records to process. The actual processing should be done in a separate class. This makes the code more organized, reusable, and easier to test. So options A and D are correct.

• Option A suggests creating helper classes to execute the appropriate logic when a record is saved, aligning with best practices of modularizing code.
• Option D suggests maintaining all three triggers but moving the Apex logic out of the trigger definition, which also aligns with best practices.

Option B is incorrect because unifying before insert and before update triggers and using Flow for delete action is not a standard practice mentioned in the learning materials.

Option C is incorrect because although it’s often a good practice to have one trigger per object, it’s not about including all events but about organizing code execution properly.

Aura Components and Lightning Web Components are two technologies that are built on a framework that fully supports the business requirement of building a responsive application capable of responding to touch events, that will be executed on stateful clients. Both technologies are part of the Lightning Component Framework, which is a modern UI framework for developing dynamic web apps for mobile and desktop devices. The Lightning Component Framework uses standard web technologies, such as HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and Web Components, to create reusable and interoperable components that can adapt to different screen sizes, devices, and orientations. The framework also provides features such as data binding, event handling, state management, and server-side integration, to enable developers to create rich and interactive user interfaces.

Aura Components are the original technology for creating Lightning components. They use a custom XML-based markup language, Aura, to define the component structure and behavior. Aura Components can respond to touch events using the ui:input component, which provides a generic input element that can handle different input types, such as text, number, date, checkbox, radio, toggle, and email. The ui:input component also supports touch gestures, such as swipe, tap, and pinch, by using the ontouchstart, ontouchend, ontouchmove, and ontouchcancel attributes. Aura Components are stateful, meaning that they maintain their state on the client-side and communicate with the server only when necessary. This reduces the network traffic and improves the performance and user experience.

Lightning Web Components are the newer technology for creating Lightning components. They use standard HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to define the component structure and behavior. Lightning Web Components can respond to touch events using the standard HTML input element, which provides a native input element that can handle different input types, such as text, number, date, checkbox, radio, toggle, and email. The input element also supports touch gestures, such as swipe, tap, and pinch, by using the standard touch event listeners, such as touchstart, touchend, touchmove, and touchcancel. Lightning Web Components are also stateful, meaning that they maintain their state on the client-side and communicate with the server only when necessary. This reduces the network traffic and improves the performance and user experience.

Visualforce Components and Visualforce Pages are two technologies that are not built on a framework that fully supports the business requirement of building a responsive application capable of responding to touch events, that will be executed on stateful clients. Visualforce Components are reusable UI elements that can be used in Visualforce Pages. Visualforce Pages are web pages that can display and interact with Salesforce data and logic. Visualforce Components and Pages use a custom XML-based markup language, Visualforce, to define the UI elements and behavior. Visualforce Components and Pages can be made responsive by using the Salesforce Lightning Design System (SLDS), which is a collection of design guidelines, components, and resources that enable developers to create consistent and beautiful user interfaces across devices. However, Visualforce Components and Pages do not have native support for touch events, and require custom JavaScript code to handle them. Visualforce Components and Pages are also stateless, meaning that they do not maintain their state on the client-side and communicate with the server on every request. This increases the network traffic and affects the performance and user experience.

The @TestSetup annotation is used to create records for every method in the test class. This annotation allows you to create common test data that is available for all test methods in the class. The test setup method runs only once before any test methods in the class. This reduces the need to create the same records for every test method and improves the performance of the test class. The @BeforeTest annotation is not a valid annotation in Apex. The @isTest(SeeAllData=True) annotation is used to grant test classes and methods access to all data in the organization, not to create records. The @PreTest annotation is not a valid annotation in Apex. References: IsTest Annotation | Apex Developer Guide | Salesforce Developers, How to Write a Test Class in Salesforce? The Salesforce Developer Guide …, IsTest Annotation in Salesforce - Automation Champion

This is because when a DML exception is thrown, it means that the operation failed due to some error, such as a validation rule, a trigger, or a governor limit. If the exception is not handled, it will cause the entire transaction to roll back and display an unhandled exception message to the user. To handle exceptions gracefully, the developer should use a try/catch block to catch the exception and handle it in a way that does not disrupt the user experience, such as logging the error, displaying a custom message, or retrying the operation. References: The use of try/catch blocks for handling exceptions is covered under Apex basics on Trailhead1. You can also find more information on DML exceptions and how to handle them in the Apex Developer Guide2.

The provided code snippet is trying to update more than 200 Account records that belong to the ‘Technology’ industry in a single transaction. In Salesforce, there are governor limits that restrict the number of records that can be processed synchronously in a single transaction to prevent overconsumption of resources. If this limit is exceeded, the transaction will fail. This applies to both synchronous (D) and asynchronous (A) transactions.

References: The governor limits are well documented in Salesforce’s developer guide and official documentation. You can refer to these documents for detailed information on various types of governor limits including DML, SOQL, and record processing limits.

• Salesforce Developer - Execution Governors and Limits

To create a class that provides the capabilities defined by multiple interfaces, the class must use the implements keyword followed by a comma-separated list of the interface names. The class must also provide the implementation for all the methods declared in the interfaces. The extends keyword is used for inheritance, not for implementing interfaces. Therefore, option C is the correct implementation of the DrawList class that implements both the Sortable and Drawable interfaces. References: Interfaces | Apex Developer Guide, Cert Prep: Platform Developer I: Developer Fundamentals

 A developer can execute tests in an org using the following methods:

• Setup Menu: By browsing to setup->Apex Test Execution, the developer can select and run tests from the user interface1.
• SalesforceDX: By using the Salesforce CLI on the command line, the developer can run tests in an org using the force:apex:test:run command2. This command can also be used from Salesforce Extensions for VS Code or from within third-party continuous integration tools, such as Jenkins or CircleCI2.
• Tooling API: The developer can also run tests using the Tooling REST API. Use the /runTestsAsynchronous/ and /runTestsSynchronous/ endpoints to run tests asynchronously or synchronously3.

The correct answer is to use the with sharing keyword in the Apex class. This keyword enforces the sharing rules that apply to the current user. This means that the Apex code respects the user’s permissions, field-level security, and sharing rules when querying or modifying records. This ensures that only records accessible to the currently logged in user are displayed. References: Apex Developer Guide

 Developer Edition orgs are free, fully-featured copies of Salesforce that are designed for developers to create and test applications. They have the same configuration as the production org, but with limited data and file storage. Developer Edition orgs are ideal for individual developers or small teams who want to work in their own orgs that are isolated from each other. Full Sandbox orgs are also copies of the production org, but they require a paid license and have a refresh interval of 29 days. Partner Developer Edition orgs are similar to Developer Edition orgs, but they have higher limits on data and file storage, as well as the number of custom objects and tabs. They are available only to Salesforce partners who are enrolled in the Partner Program. Developer Sandbox orgs are copies of the production org metadata, but they have very limited data and file storage, and a refresh interval of one day. They are useful for coding and testing in a disposable environment, but not for developing complex applications that require more resources. References:

The Test.loadData < > method inserts test records from the specified static resource .csv file and for the specified sObject type, and returns a list of the inserted sObjects1. The file contains field names and values for the test records. The first line of the file must contain the field names and subsequent lines are the field values. To learn more about static resources, see “Defining Static Resources” in the Salesforce online help2. This method is useful for creating test data with specific field values without writing code. The other options are either incorrect or less efficient for this purpose. Anonymous Apex is a way to execute Apex code on demand in the Developer Console, but it is not a recommended way to create test data, as it is not part of the test class and may affect the org data3. SOQL is a query language that can retrieve data from the org, but it cannot create new data. Also, using SOQL to access existing data in a test class requires the @IsTest (SeeAllData=true) annotation, which is not a best practice, as it may cause test failures or unpredictable results4. Test.loadData does not support JSON files, only CSV files1. References:

The result of the following code is that the record will not be created and an exception will be thrown. This is because the code is trying to insert a record with a null value for a required field, which violates the database constraints and causes a DMLException1. The code does not handle the exception with a try-catch block, so the exception will propagate to the caller and terminate the execution2. The debug log will show the exception message and stack trace, but the record will not be inserted in the database.

Java

Account a = new Account();

a.Name = null;

insert a;

AI-generated code. Review and use carefully. More info on FAQ.

The other options are incorrect. Option B is incorrect because the record will not be created and the debug log will show an exception, not a message. Option C is incorrect because the record will not be created and an error will be reported as an exception. Option D is incorrect because the record will not be created and an error will be reported as an exception. References:

A deployment script is a file that contains a series of commands or instructions to perform a deployment task, such as creating or updating metadata components, running tests, or validating changes. To run a script that deploys to a sandbox, the development team can use the following tools:

• Option A: VS Code. VS Code is a code editor that supports Salesforce development with extensions, such as Salesforce Extension Pack and Salesforce CLI Integration. VS Code allows the development team to write and execute deployment scripts using the Salesforce CLI commands or the SFDX commands palette. VS Code also provides features such as syntax highlighting, code completion, debugging, and source control integration.
• Option B: SFDX CLI. SFDX CLI is a command-line tool that enables the development team to interact with Salesforce orgs and perform various tasks, such as creating scratch orgs, retrieving and deploying metadata, running tests, and managing packages. SFDX CLI can run deployment scripts written in different formats, such as shell scripts, batch files, or JSON files.

References: The use of VS Code and SFDX CLI to run deployment scripts can be referenced in the Salesforce Platform Developer I learning documents, specifically in modules that cover Salesforce DX and deployment tools, such as:

 The issue is that the value of the account type field is not being displayed correctly on the Visualforce page. This can be resolved by adding a getter method for the actType attribute in the custom controller. A getter method is used to retrieve the value of a private variable, ensuring that it’s read-only and cannot be modified by external classes or pages, thus maintaining encapsulation and security. References: The need for getter methods and their usage can be referenced in Apex basics where encapsulation, getters, and setters are discussed: Apex Basics & Database

The Create Records element allows you to create one or more new records of a specific object type in a Flow1. In this case, the developer needs to create a new Contact record and store its ID on the Opportunity record. The other options are either incorrect or unnecessary, as they do not create a new record or assign its ID to another record23. References:

• Create Records | Flow Builder | Salesforce Developers
• Get Records | Flow Builder | Salesforce Developers
• Update Records | Flow Builder | Salesforce Developers

 Importing data using the Data Loader and the Bulk API causes a before trigger to fire by default for Accounts. A before trigger is a type of trigger that executes before a record is saved to the database. A before trigger can be used to validate or modify the record values before they are inserted or updated1. When using the Data Loader or the Bulk API to import data, the before trigger will run for each batch of records that are processed2.

The other options are not correct because:

• Renaming or replacing picklist values does not cause a before trigger to fire, as it does not affect the record values directly. However, it may affect the validation rules or formulas that reference the picklist values3.
• Converting Leads to Contact accounts does not cause a before trigger to fire, as it is a special operation that bypasses the standard trigger execution order. Instead, the LeadConvert class can be used to override the default lead conversion process and invoke custom logic.
• Updating addresses using the Mass Address update tool does not cause a before trigger to fire, as it is a tool that allows users to update address fields on multiple records at once. However, it may cause an after trigger to fire, as it updates the records in the database.

To check the test coverage of active Process Builder and Flows deploying them in a Change Set, a developer can use SOQL and the Tooling API. The Tooling API provides the FlowTestCoverage object, which represents the test coverage for a flow or process by a given Apex method. The developer can use SOQL queries to retrieve the FlowTestCoverage records for the flows and processes that are included in the Change Set, and calculate the overall test coverage percentage. The developer can also use the Tooling API to create, update, or delete FlowTestCoverage records.

Option A is incorrect because the Flow properties page does not show the test coverage of the flow or process. Option B is incorrect because the code Coverage Setup page only shows the test coverage of Apex classes and triggers, not flows or processes. Option C is incorrect because the Apex testresult class only provides information about the test execution results, not the test coverage of flows or processes.

References: FlowTestCoverage | Tooling API | Salesforce Developers, How to Invoke Apex from Flows Using InvocableMethod Annotation, How can a developer check the test coverage of active process builder and flows deploying them in a changing set?

 A trigger is a piece of Apex code that executes before or after certain events, such as insert, update, delete, or undelete1. An aggregate function is a function that performs a calculation on a set of values and returns a single value, such as SUM, COUNT, AVG, MIN, or MAX2. A roll-up summary field is a field that calculates values from related records, such as those in a related list3. However, roll-up summary fields are only available for master-detail relationships, not for lookup relationships3. Therefore, to achieve a similar functionality for a custom object that is not in a master-detail relationship with the Opportunity object, a trigger can be written on the child object that uses an aggregate function to sum the amount for all related child objects under the Opportunity object. The trigger should handle different scenarios, such as insert, update, delete, or undelete of the child records, and update the corresponding Opportunity record accordingly. References:

 The correct answer is C and D because they are the characteristics of Lightning Web Component custom events as described in the Salesforce documentation1. A custom event is an event that a component fires to communicate data to other components. By default, a custom event only propagates to its immediate container, which is the component that created it or the component that hosts the component that created it. To propagate the event beyond the immediate container, the component that fires the event must set the composed property of the event to true. A custom event can pass data to other components in the payload using a property called detail, which can be any JavaScript object. The other options are incorrect because they are not true for Lightning Web Component custom events. Option A is incorrect because a wire decorated property is a property that is automatically updated with data from a Salesforce org or an Apex method. It is not related to custom events. Option B is incorrect because a custom event does not propagate to its immediate child component by default, unless the child component is the one that fires the event or the event is composed. References:

• Trailhead: Communicate Between Components
• Trailhead: Lightning Web Components Basics

 A lookup field creates a relationship that links one object to another object. The relationship field allows users to click a lookup icon to select a value from a popup list. The other object is the source of the values in the list1. In this case, the developer should add a lookup field on the Account object to the Global Address object, so that multiple Accounts can share the same Global Address as their default pickup address. This way, the Global Address object can store the common address information for different Accounts, and the Account object can reference the Global Address object via the lookup field. A master-detail field creates a parent-child relationship between two objects, where the master object controls certain behaviors of the detail object. The detail object inherits the sharing and security settings of its master object2. In this case, a master-detail field is not suitable, because the Global Address object should not be dependent on the Account object, or vice versa. The Global Address object should be able to exist independently of the Account object, and the Account object should be able to have multiple Global Address records associated with it. References:

Flow Builder is a powerful tool that lets you automate business processes by building flows. Flows are applications that can execute logic, interact with Salesforce, and guide users through screens for collecting and updating data. Flow Builder is ideal for creating guided call scripts that can branch based on user input and data values. Flow Builder can also leverage standard and custom objects, fields, and relationships to access and update data. Flow Builder does not require coding skills and can be used declaratively by admins and developers alike. References: The use of Flow Builder for creating call scripts can be referenced in Salesforce’s official documentation and learning modules, specifically under the section that covers business process automation with flows (Business Process Automation with Flows).

The approach that can be used to make a custom Lightning Web Component available in the Salesforce Classic user interface is to use the Lightning Out JavaScript library to embed the Lightning Web Component in a Visualforce page and add to the page layout. Lightning Out is a feature that allows developers to use Lightning web components and Aura components outside the Lightning Experience and Salesforce app, such as in Visualforce pages, standalone apps, or external websites. By using Lightning Out, developers can leverage the benefits of Lightning Web Components, such as performance, interoperability, and modern web standards, in the Salesforce Classic user interface. To use Lightning Out, developers need to create a Lightning dependency app, which is a special type of Aura app that acts as a bridge between the Lightning web component and the Visualforce page. Then, developers need to use the $Lightning.use() and $Lightning.createComponent() methods in the Visualforce page to load the dependency app and create an instance of the Lightning web component. Finally, developers need to add the Visualforce page to the page layout of the object where they want to display the Lightning web component. References: Use Lightning Web Components in Visualforce Pages, Lightning Out, Free Salesforce Platform Developer 1 Practice Exam (With Answers)

To effectively test a custom controller that works with a Visualforce wizard, the unit test should do the following:

• Set the current page to the first page of the wizard using Test.setCurrentPage(pageRef), where pageRef is a PageReference object that points to the page URL. This allows the test to access the page parameters and controller methods for that page1.
• Set the page parameter that the wizard expects using ApexPages.CurrentPage().getParameters().put(‘input’, ‘TestValue’), where ‘input’ is the name of the parameter and ‘TestValue’ is the value to be passed. This allows the test to simulate the user input or the initial URL parameter that the wizard uses1.
• Verify the navigation logic of the wizard by checking the URL of the next page after invoking the controller action using String nextPage = controller.save().getUrl(), where controller is an instance of the custom controller class and save() is the action method that returns a PageReference object. This allows the test to assert that the wizard redirects to the correct page based on the input and logic2.

The other options are not useful for testing the custom controller. Option A is incorrect because insert pageRef is not a valid Apex statement. Option C is incorrect because public ExtendedController(ApexPages StandardController cntrl) { } is a constructor for a controller extension, not a custom controller3. References:

 The method must be decorated with @AuraEnabled to make it accessible from a Lightning web component. The @AuraEnabled annotation enables client- and server-side access to an Apex controller method. Without this annotation, the Lightning web component can’t call the Apex method. The cacheable=true attribute is optional and indicates whether the method can be cached by the client. The method can return any data type that can be serialized into JSON, such as a JSON object, a JSON array, a primitive type, or a custom type. The method does not need to return a string of a serialized JSON array, as the framework handles the serialization and deserialization automatically. References:

 A standard list controller provides a list of records of a specific object type, such as Contact, and allows you to create Visualforce pages that can display or act on that data1. A standard list controller is suitable for this purpose, because it can easily query the contacts owned by the current user and display them in a table or list. A standard list controller also supports pagination, sorting, filtering, and mass actions2. A standard controller provides access to a single record of a specific object type, such as Account, and is not suitable for displaying a list of records1. A lightning controller is a JavaScript controller that handles user interactions and events in a Lightning web component, and is not related to Visualforce pages3. A custom controller is an Apex class that implements all the logic for a Visualforce page, and requires writing more code than using a standard list controller1. References:

 In order to update a record of a junction object, you must have Read/Write access on the primary relationship and Read/Write access on the junction object. A junction object is a custom object that is used to create a many-to-many relationship between two other objects via two master-detail relationships. The primary relationship is the first master-detail relationship that is created on the junction object, and the secondary relationship is the second master-detail relationship that is created on the junction object. To update a record of a junction object, you need to have Read/Write access on both the junction object and the primary relationship, because:

• Read/Write access on the junction object allows you to modify the fields and values of the junction object record, such as the name, description, or custom fields.
• Read/Write access on the primary relationship allows you to change the parent record of the junction object record, which is also known as reparenting. Reparenting is the process of moving a child record from one parent record to another in a master-detail relationship. Reparenting is not allowed by default in master-detail relationships, but it can be enabled by selecting the Allow reparenting option on the relationship field.

Read access on the primary relationship and Read/Write access on the secondary relationship are not sufficient to update a record of a junction object, because:

• Read access on the primary relationship does not allow you to change the parent record of the junction object record, which may be necessary for some updates. For example, if you want to move an OrderItem record from one Order record to another, you need to have Read/Write access on the primary relationship between OrderItem and Order.
• Read/Write access on the secondary relationship does not affect the update of the junction object record, because the secondary relationship is not involved in the update operation. The secondary relationship is only used to associate the junction object record with another parent record, but it does not allow you to modify the junction object record itself.

The test method fails in the sandbox test framework because it relies on existing data in the sandbox, which may not be consistent or available for the test execution. The Apex test framework uses a separate test data context that is rolled back after the test execution, so any data that is queried or inserted by the test method must be created within the test method or by using the @testSetup annotation. The Execute Anonymous window, on the other hand, runs the Apex logic in the current user context and can access the existing data in the sandbox. Therefore, the Apex logic may succeed in the Execute Anonymous window but fail in the test framework. References:

The global access modifier declares that the class and method are known by all Apex code everywhere, not just within the same application or package namespace. This access modifier must be used for any method that must be referenced outside of the application, either in SOAP API or by other Apex code1. The other options are either incorrect or insufficient, as they do not guarantee the accessibility of the method outside the package namespace2. References:

The code snippet uses a for loop to create a list of 200 Account objects, each with a unique name. Then, it uses the Database.insert method to insert the list of accounts into the database in one DML operation. The Database.insert method returns a list of Database.SaveResult objects, which contain information about the success or failure of each record insertion. However, the code snippet does not check the results or handle any errors that might occur. Therefore, the result of the code snippet is that 200 accounts are inserted, unless an exception is thrown due to a trigger, validation rule, governor limit, or other reason. References:

Scratch orgs are short-term Salesforce environments that you can spin up to work on a feature. They are source-driven, disposable, and fully configurable. To create scratch orgs, you need to use the Salesforce CLI, which is a command-line tool that lets you interact with Salesforce orgs and perform various tasks. You can use the Salesforce CLI to create a scratch org definition file, which specifies the features and settings of the scratch org, and then run the force:org:create command to create the scratch org. You can also use the force:org:open command to open the scratch org in a browser without logging in.

 The code snippet uses the ternary operator in Apex, which is a shorthand way of writing an if-else statement. The syntax is condition ? value_if_true : value_if_false. The condition is evaluated first, and then either the value_if_true or the value_if_false is returned, depending on the result of the condition. In this case, the condition is a > b, which is false, since a is 1 and b is 2. Therefore, the value_if_false is returned, which is a, which is 1. Hence, the value of x is 1. References:

• Apex Basics for .NET Developers, page 9
• [Apex Developer Guide], section “Ternary Operator”

The with sharing keyword on the class declaration enforces the sharing rules that apply to the current user. This means that the user can only see and modify the records that they have access to based on the organization-wide defaults, role hierarchy, sharing rules, manual sharing, teams, and territories. The without sharing keyword, on the other hand, ignores the sharing rules and allows the user to access all records, regardless of ownership or sharing settings. This can pose a security risk and should be used with caution. The schema describe calls and the UserInfo Apex class do not directly affect the sharing rules, but rather provide information about the object and field permissions, and the user’s profile and role, respectively. These can be used to check the user’s access level, but not to enforce the sharing rules on the custom search tool. References:

• Apex Developer Guide: Using the with sharing, without sharing, and inherited sharing Keywords, pages 13-14

Lightning Web Components use the standard web component model, which includes the concept of Shadow DOM. Shadow DOM is a mechanism that isolates the component’s internal DOM from the rest of the page, creating a boundary that prevents the component from accessing or being affected by the elements outside of its own subtree. However, this also means that events that are fired from within the component’s shadow DOM do not propagate to the parent or ancestor components by default, unless they are configured to do so.

To configure how an event propagates, the component that dispatches the event can set two properties on the custom event object: bubbles and composed. The bubbles property determines whether the event can bubble up the containment hierarchy, which is the tree of components that contains the event source. The composed property determines whether the event can cross the shadow boundary, which is the boundary between the component’s shadow DOM and the light DOM of its parent component.

The possible values and effects of these properties are:

• bubbles: true, composed: true: The event can bubble up the containment hierarchy and cross the shadow boundary. This means that the event can be handled by any component that is an ancestor of the event source, regardless of whether it is in the same shadow DOM or not. This is the most common setting for custom events that need to communicate with other components in the page.
• bubbles: true, composed: false: The event can bubble up the containment hierarchy, but cannot cross the shadow boundary. This means that the event can be handled by any component that is an ancestor of the event source, as long as it is in the same shadow DOM. This is useful for custom events that need to communicate with other components within the same shadow tree, but not outside of it.
• bubbles: false, composed: true: The event cannot bubble up the containment hierarchy, but can cross the shadow boundary. This means that the event can be handled only by the component that dispatched the event, or by the component that contains the event source in its light DOM. This is useful for custom events that need to communicate with the direct parent component, but not with any other ancestor components.
• bubbles: false, composed: false: The event cannot bubble up the containment hierarchy, nor can it cross the shadow boundary. This means that the event can be handled only by the component that dispatched the event. This is useful for custom events that do not need to communicate with any other components, but only with the event source itself.

Therefore, the correct answer is B. bubbles: true, composed: true, as this is the only setting that enables the event to bubble up the containment hierarchy and cross the shadow boundary.

In Salesforce, a controller and extension for a custom object on a Visualforce page can be specified using the  tag. The standardController attribute is used to associate the page with a standard or custom object, and the extensions attribute is used to specify an Apex class that extends the functionality of the standard or custom controller. The code snippet in option C, , correctly demonstrates this by associating the Visualforce page with a custom object named “Notice” and specifying an extension named “myControllerExtension”. References: You can find more information about controllers and extensions in the Visualforce Developer Guide and the [Apex Developer Guide] on Salesforce’s official website.

• Controllers, helpers, and renderers are three resources in an Aura Component that can contain JavaScript functions. They are used to implement the client-side logic and behavior of the component12.
• Controllers are the primary resource for handling user interactions and events. They define the actions that are executed on the client or sent to the server12.
• Helpers are the secondary resource for sharing common code and logic across controllers and other helpers. They can also access component attributes and call server-side actions12.
• Renderers are the optional resource for customizing the rendering lifecycle of the component. They can override the default rendering, rerendering, and unrendering methods of the component12.
• Design and style are two other resources in an Aura Component, but they do not contain JavaScript functions. They are used to define the design-time attributes and the CSS styles of the component12.

The value of the count field after inserting an Account with an initial value of zero is 2, because both the trigger and the workflow rule will increment the count field by 1. The order of execution for this scenario is as follows:

• The Account record is inserted with a count value of 0.
• The system runs the before insert trigger, which increments the count value to 1.
• The system saves the record to the database, but does not commit yet.
• The system runs the after insert trigger, which does not affect the count value.
• The system executes the workflow rule, which increments the count value to 2.
• The system updates the record again with the new count value.
• The system commits the record to the database.

The field update in the workflow rule is configured to not re-evaluate workflow rules, which means that the workflow rule will not be triggered again by the second update. Therefore, the count value will remain 2.

The correct answer is to move all of the logic to a Queueable class that queries for and updates the Assets and call it from the trigger. This is because when dealing with bulk data, triggers can often hit governor limits. By utilizing a Queueable class, the developer can perform asynchronous processing which helps in handling more records and avoiding hitting governor limits. References: The Salesforce Platform Developer I Learning documents emphasize on understanding the governor limits and how to write efficient code that can handle bulk data without hitting these limits. Asynchronous processing like Batch Apex, Future methods, or Queueable Apex is often recommended for bulk data handling. You can find more information on these topics in the following links: Apex Developer Guide, Trailhead

The Order Number field should be defined as an External ID and Unique field in Salesforce. This is because the Order Number is a unique identifier that comes from an external system and needs to be matched with the corresponding order records in Salesforce. An External ID field allows you to use the Order Number as a foreign key for data integration and upsert operations. A Unique field ensures that no two order records have the same Order Number in Salesforce. References:

• Order Fields - Salesforce
• Order | Salesforce Field Reference Guide | Salesforce Developers
• Allow Standard Order Number Field to be Overwritten - Salesforce
• How to Create Number Field Type in Salesforce

In Salesforce, the sharing context is determined by the definition of the class where a method is defined, not where it is invoked or instantiated. Since there’s no “with sharing” or “without sharing” keyword in the class definition in the provided example, it operates in system context. In system context, Apex code has access to all objects and fields— object permissions, field-level security, sharing rules aren’t applied for the current user. References: Apex Developer Guide

 In Salesforce, the sharing rules are always enforced for the running user if not explicitly stated otherwise. The running user’s permissions and field-level security are always enforced, regardless of whether the class is defined with or without sharing. So in this case, since there is no explicit sharing declaration in the provided code snippet, it defaults to enforcing the sharing rules for the running user. References:

• Apex Developer Guide: Using the with sharing, without sharing, and inherited sharing Keywords
• Trailhead: Apex Sharing and Security

A record-trigger flow on Opportunity is the most efficient way for a developer to implement this requirement, because it allows the developer to automate the creation and assignment of a Task without writing any code. A record-trigger flow can be configured to run when a record is created, updated, or deleted, and it can access and update related records using flow elements1. A record-trigger flow on Opportunity can also use the $Record global variable to access the Opportunity Owner and assign the Task to them2.

An auto-launched flow on Task is not an efficient way to implement this requirement, because it requires the developer to manually invoke the flow from another process, such as a trigger or a button3. An auto-launched flow on Task cannot access the Opportunity record or its Owner without a lookup element, which adds complexity and reduces performance.

An Apex trigger on Task is not an efficient way to implement this requirement, because it requires the developer to write and maintain code, which is more prone to errors and harder to debug than a flow. An Apex trigger on Task also cannot access the Opportunity record or its Owner without a SOQL query, which consumes governor limits and increases the risk of hitting the 101 SOQL limit.

A Task action is not an efficient way to implement this requirement, because it requires the user to manually create and assign the Task from the Opportunity record page. A Task action does not automate the process, and it relies on the user to remember and follow the business rule. References:

The Lightning Component framework is a UI framework for developing Lightning components for mobile and desktop devices. Lightning web components and Aura components can coexist and interoperate on a page1. The framework provides developers with prebuilt components that can be reused, such as buttons, cards, carousels, etc2. The framework also provides templates to create custom components that follow the best practices and standards of web development3. The framework does not extend the governor limits for applications, nor does it support Classic UI. It only supports Lightning Experience, Experience Builder Sites, Salesforce Mobile App, Lightning Out, and Standalone Lightning App2.

Adding system.debug statements to the code is a common and effective way to troubleshoot issues with Apex triggers. System.debug statements allow the developer to log messages, variables, or expressions to the debug log, which can be viewed in the Developer Console or other tools1. By adding system.debug statements at strategic points in the trigger code, the developer can track the execution flow, check the values of variables, and identify the root cause of the issue. Disabling the trigger in production is not a good practice, as it can affect the business logic and data integrity of the org2. Using the Apex Interactive Debugger is a powerful tool that allows the developer to set breakpoints, inspect variables, and execute code line by line, but it requires a paid license and a supported IDE3. Reviewing the Historical Event logs can provide useful information about the performance, security, and usage of the org, but it may not be sufficient to pinpoint the exact issue with the trigger4. References:

An Apex REST class is a custom class that defines methods that can be invoked via HTTP requests. The developer can use the @RestResource annotation to expose the class as a REST resource, and use the @HttpGet, @HttpPost, @HttpPut, or @HttpDelete annotations to define the methods that correspond to the HTTP verbs. The developer can also use the RestContext class to access the request and response information, such as the parameters, headers, and body. An Apex REST class can be used to integrate with an external order management system by sending and receiving JSON or XML data, and parsing and serializing it using the built-in Apex methods. The developer can then use the flow:callApex action in the flow to invoke the Apex REST class and pass the data to the screen element. An Apex REST class is different from the other options listed, as they are not suitable for this requirement. An Apex controller is a class that provides logic and data for a Visualforce page or a Lightning component, not a flow. An outbound message is a message that is sent from Salesforce to an external system when a workflow rule is triggered, not when a flow is executed. An invocable method is a method that is annotated with @InvocableMethod and can be called from a process, a flow, or a REST API, but it cannot make HTTP requests to an external system. References:

• Apex REST Methods from the Apex Developer Guide
• Call Apex from Flow from the Salesforce Help
• Integrate with External Systems Using Apex REST Services from the Salesforce Trailhead

The @HttpInvocable annotation is used to expose an Apex class as a RESTful web service. This allows the class to be invoked by a REST client, enabling external systems to interact with Salesforce via the API. The methods within the class that are exposed as REST web services must be static and global or public. References: Apex Developer Guide

The @InvocableMethod annotation is used to identify methods that can be run as invocable actions from a flow, a bot, or an NBA. There are some considerations when using this annotation in Apex, such as:

• A method using the @InvocableMethod annotation must define a return value, even if it is null. This is because the invocable action must return a value to the flow, bot, or NBA that invokes it.
• A method using the @InvocableMethod annotation can have only one input parameter, which can be a list of a primitive data type, a list of a specific sObject type, or a list of a generic sObject type. This is because the invocable action can accept only one input value from the flow, bot, or NBA that invokes it.
• A method using the @InvocableMethod annotation must be declared as static, because it is not associated with a specific instance of the class that defines it. Static methods can be invoked without creating an object of the class.
• A method using the @InvocableMethod annotation can be declared as either public or global, depending on the visibility of the invocable action. Public methods are visible within the same namespace, while global methods are visible across namespaces.
• Only one method using the @InvocableMethod annotation can be defined per Apex class, because each invocable action is associated with a single Apex class. Multiple invocable methods in the same class would cause ambiguity and confusion.

References: InvocableMethod Annotation | Apex Developer Guide, How to Invoke Apex from Flows Using InvocableMethod Annotation

• By providing device-awareness for mobile and desktops. This is true because the Lightning Component framework is a UI framework for developing Lightning components for mobile and desktop devices. Lightning web components and Aura components can coexist and interoperate on a page. The framework takes care of rendering the components appropriately for different devices and screen sizes1.
• By providing an Agile process with default steps. This is false because the Lightning Component framework does not provide any specific process or methodology for developing solutions. Developers can use any process that suits their needs, such as Agile, Waterfall, or Scrum2.
• By providing code review standards and processes. This is false because the Lightning Component framework does not provide any code review standards or processes. Developers are responsible for ensuring the quality and maintainability of their code, and they can use tools such as code analysis, testing, and debugging to help them3.
• By providing change history and version control. This is false because the Lightning Component framework does not provide any change history or version control features. Developers can use tools such as Git, SVN, or Salesforce DX to manage their source code and track changes.

 Scratch orgs are short-term Salesforce environments that you can spin up to work on a feature. They are source-driven and disposable, meaning you can create and delete them as needed. They are fully configurable, allowing you to emulate different Salesforce editions with different features and settings. You can also install packages and deploy synthetic or dummy data for testing. Scratch orgs are ideal for developing in a source-driven way, as they enable source tracking, which keeps your local source files and the metadata in your org in sync. You can use Salesforce CLI or an IDE to create, open, and manage scratch orgs. Scratch orgs are different from other types of Salesforce orgs, such as Developer sandboxes, Full Copy sandboxes, and Developer orgs, which are long-term, persistent, and not source-driven. References:

 To calculate the estimated ship date for an Order, the best method is to use a Max Roll-Up Summary field on the Latest availability date fields. A Roll-Up Summary field calculates values from related records, such as the sum, minimum, maximum, or count of a field1. By using a Max Roll-Up Summary field on the Latest availability date fields, the Order record can display the latest date among all the Line Items, which is the earliest date that the Order can be shipped.

The other options are not correct because:

• A. Use a CEILING formula on each of the Latest availability date fields. This option is not valid, because a CEILING formula rounds a number up to the nearest integer2. This does not help to calculate the estimated ship date for an Order, as it does not compare the dates of the Line Items or display the result on the Order record.
• B. Use a DAYS formula on each of the availability date fields and a COUNT Roll-Up Summary field on the Order. This option is not valid, because a DAYS formula returns the number of days between two dates2. This does not help to calculate the estimated ship date for an Order, as it does not account for the latest date among the Line Items or display the result on the Order record. A COUNT Roll-Up Summary field only counts the number of related records, not the values of a field1.
• C. Use a LATEST formula on each of the latest availability date fields. This option is not valid, because there is no such formula function as LATEST in Salesforce2. Even if there was, it would not help to calculate the estimated ship date for an Order, as it would not display the result on the Order record.

Marking the field as Required on the field definition ensures that the field cannot be left blank or null when a record is created or updated, regardless of the page layout or the API. This is the most efficient way to enforce a value for the picklist field, as it does not require any additional configuration or code. Setting the first value as the default value does not prevent the user from changing or clearing the value. Setting a validation rule requires writing a formula and handling error messages. Marking the field as Required on the page layout only affects the user interface, not the API or other tools. References:

 Salesforce CLI is a command-line interface that lets you run commands to create, test, and deploy Salesforce applications. You can easily integrate Salesforce CLI commands into various CI tools, such as CircleCI, Jenkins, or Travis CI, to automate testing and deployment of Salesforce applications against scratch orgs. Salesforce CLI also supports the Salesforce DX development model, which enables source-driven development, team collaboration, and agile delivery. References:

Component and application events are two types of events that can be used to communicate between components in Lightning. Component events are handled by the component that fired the event or a component in its containment hierarchy. Application events are handled by any component that is listening to the event, regardless of where it is in the DOM1. Some of the best practices when it comes to component and application event handling are:

• Reuse the event logic in a component bundle, by putting the logic in the helper. This practice allows the developer to avoid duplicating code and to maintain consistency and modularity. The helper class can contain common methods that can be invoked by the controller or the renderer of the component2.
• Handle low-level events in the event handler and re-fire them as higher-level events. This practice allows the developer to abstract away the details of the low-level events and provide a more meaningful and relevant event for the consumers. For example, a component can handle a mouse click event and re-fire it as a select event with additional data3.

The other options are not best practices because:

• Use component events to communicate actions that should be handled at the application level. This practice is not recommended, because component events are scoped to the component that fired them or its parents. If the action should be handled by a component that is not in the same containment hierarchy, the component event will not reach it. Application events are more suitable for cross-component communication1.
• Try to use application events as opposed to component events. This practice is not advisable, because application events are broadcast to all components that are listening to them, which can cause performance issues and unwanted side effects. Component events are more efficient and secure, as they are only handled by the relevant components1.

 To deploy Apex or package it for the Salesforce AppExchange, unit tests must cover at least 75% of your Apex code, and those tests must pass1. Code coverage indicates how many executable lines of code in your classes and triggers have been exercised by test methods1. Test classes (classes that are annotated with @isTest) are excluded from the code coverage calculation1. Therefore, the developer needs to create a test class and methods to cover the Apex trigger, as the helper class alone is not enough to meet the code coverage requirement. Running the tests using the ‘Run All Tests’ method, removing the failing test methods from the test class, or increasing the test class coverage on the helper class will not solve the problem, as the trigger itself is still not covered by any test. References: 1 Testing and Code Coverage | Apex Developer Guide - Salesforce Developers1

When deploying to a production org, all Apex code, including triggers, must have at least 75% test coverage. This means that at least 75% of the lines of code in each Apex class and trigger must be executed by unit tests. This is a requirement to ensure the quality and reliability of the code and to prevent any unexpected behavior or errors in production. Test coverage is calculated by dividing the number of covered lines by the total number of lines in each class or trigger. Test coverage can be measured by running tests in the Developer Console, the Salesforce CLI, or the Apex Test Execution page in Setup. Test coverage can also be viewed in the Code Coverage page in Setup or in the Problems tab in the Developer Console. Test coverage is different from test results, which indicate whether the tests passed or failed based on the assertions and expected outcomes. Test results do not affect the deployment, but they can help identify and fix any bugs or issues in the code. Test coverage and test results are both important aspects of testing Apex code and ensuring its functionality and performance. References:

To pass data from a parent component to a child component, the developer can use either a custom event or a public property1. A custom event is a way for a component to communicate with its parent or ancestor components by sending a message that contains data. The parent component can listen for the event and handle it accordingly. A public property is a way for a parent component to pass data to a child component by setting an attribute on the child component’s HTML tag. The child component can access the data through the property’s value.

The developer cannot use the Apex controller class or invoke a method in the child component to pass data from the parent component. The Apex controller class is used to communicate with the server and perform business logic, not to pass data between components. Invoking a method in the child component is a way for the parent component to call a function defined in the child component, not to pass data to it. References:

 To allow reporting on which companies have reported which bugs, a junction object between Bug__c and Account is needed. A junction object is a custom object with two master-detail relationships, one to each of the objects it is joining. A junction object allows many-to-many relationships between objects, such as Bug__c and Account in this scenario. With a junction object, each bug can be related to multiple accounts, and each account can be related to multiple bugs. A roll-up summary field, a lookup field, or a master-detail field would not allow this kind of relationship, as they only support one-to-many or one-to-one relationships between objects. References:
