    Study Notes

    Salesforce ADM-201 Study Notes

    Using Data Loader

    • To use Data Loader, an administrator needs to append their security token at the end of their password to login.
    • The security token is required for API access when logging in from an IP address that is not trusted by Salesforce.

    Automation Solutions

    • Process Builder is an automation tool that allows creating processes that perform actions based on criteria.
    • It can be used to update fields on related records when a record is created or updated.

    Error Handling in Screen Flows

    • Fault connectors and screen components can be used to handle errors that occur when a flow element fails.
    • Fault connectors can be used to handle errors, and screen components can be used to display a message to the user with text explaining what went wrong and how to correct it.

    Salesforce Objects

    • Standard objects are objects that are included with Salesforce by default, such as Account, Contact, Lead, Opportunity, etc.
    • Custom objects are objects that you create to store information that is specific to your organization or industry.
    • You can create new standard objects using the Object Manager in Setup.

    Deactivating Users

    • Two reasons that would prevent a user from being deactivated are:
      • The user is part of a territory hierarchy.
      • The user is assigned in workflow email alert.

    Preserving Source Report Integrity

    • To preserve the integrity of source reports, an administrator can:
      • Create a new report folder with viewer access only.
      • Move the dashboard reports to the view-only folder.

    Object Relationships

    • A lookup field is a type of field that allows administrators to create a relationship between two objects by linking records from one object to another object.
    • Lookup fields allow users to select an existing record from a pop-up window or create a new record from the same window.

    Changing Object Relationships

    • One scenario that could prevent an administrator from changing the relationship between custom objects from master-detail to lookup is that roll-up summary fields exist on the master object.

    Conditional Visibility

    • Conditional visibility is a feature that allows administrators to show or hide screen components in a flow based on certain conditions or criteria.
    • It can be used to show only one question on a screen depending on the value of another field or variable.

    Report Features

    • Bucket columns allow administrators to categorize report data into groups without creating a formula or custom field.
    • Bucket columns can be used to create buckets for different ranges of values and assign labels to them.

    Changing Field Types

    • Two data loss considerations when changing a custom field type from Text to Picklist are:
      • Assignment and escalation rules may be affected.
      • Any list view based on the custom field is deleted.

    Copying Custom Fields

    • To ensure a custom field from a Lead is copied to a converted Account record, an administrator should:
      • Ensure the custom field on the Lead is mapped to the right field on the Account using the Lead Field Mapping tool.

    Configuring Sales Processes

    • To meet the requirement of having different fields and stages for each sales team, an administrator should:
      • Create multiple sales processes for each market segment.
      • Create multiple record types for each sales process.
      • Create multiple page layouts for each record type.

    Troubleshooting Assignment Rules

    • When troubleshooting an assignment rule issue, an administrator may find that:
      • The Assignment Rule checkbox is selected by default, which causes manually created cases to be assigned according to assignment rules instead of being owned by the agent creating them.

    Creating Validation Rules

    • Two functions that an administrator should use when creating a validation rule are:
      • Error condition formula, which defines when an error should occur based on record fields and values.
      • Error message location, which specifies where on the page layout an error message should appear when triggered by an error condition formula.

    Restricting Access to Salesforce

    • Two considerations for preventing users from accessing Salesforce from outside of their network are:
      • IP address restrictions can be set on the profile level or globally for the org.
      • Enforce Login IP Ranges on Every Request must be selected to enforce IP restrictions for API logins.### Salesforce ADM-201: Practice Test

    Web-to-Case and Email-to-Case

    • Web-to-Case and Email-to-Case are two solutions that allow customers to create cases from a web form or an email.
    • Web-to-Case generates HTML code for a web form that can be placed on a website.
    • Email-to-Case converts incoming emails into cases.

    Paths and Kanban List Views

    • Paths allow displaying key fields and guidance for each stage of an opportunity.
    • Kanban list views allow updating records by dragging them between columns.

    Case Escalation Rules

    • Case escalation rules are a feature that can be used to automatically escalate cases that meet certain criteria, such as being open for more than a specified time or having a certain priority.
    • Escalation rules can assign cases to a different owner or queue and send email notifications to the support manager or other recipients.

    Permission Sets

    • Permission sets are used to grant additional permissions and access settings to individual users without changing their profiles or requiring a new profile to be created.
    • Permission sets can be used to extend users' functional access without changing their existing profiles.

    Security Health Check

    • Security Health Check is a tool that can be used to identify and fix potential session vulnerabilities.
    • Security Health Check scans the security settings in an org and compares them to a baseline set of standards.

    Password Policies

    • Password policies can be configured to encourage employees to choose secure and appropriate passwords for their Salesforce accounts.
    • Three password policies that can be configured are:
      • Maximum invalid login attempts
      • Password complexity requirements
      • Number of days until expiration
    • Related lists are components that allow users to view and edit records related to a parent record on a record page.
    • The Related List component has two types: Related List and Enhanced List.
    • The Related List type shows records in a table format with columns that match the page layout of the parent record.
    • The Enhanced List type shows records in a compact format with fewer columns and actions.

    Business Hours

    • Business hours are used to specify the days and hours when a company's employees work.
    • Multiple sets of business hours can be created for different time zones or regions and assigned to users based on their location or function.

    Flows

    • A flow can be active or inactive depending on whether you want it to run or not.
    • An inactive flow cannot be run by users or processes until it is activated.

    Contacts to Multiple Accounts

    • Contacts to multiple accounts is a feature that allows associating a single contact with multiple accounts, both business and person accounts.
    • This feature allows maintaining the historical accuracy of the contact record without creating duplicate records for each account.

    Permission Sets and Permission Set Groups

    • A permission set group is a collection of permission sets that can be assigned to users as one unit.
    • A permission set is a collection of settings and permissions that give users access to various tools and functions in Salesforce.

    Account Teams

    • Account teams are groups of users who work together on an account.
    • Enabling account teams in Setup and assigning team roles and access levels for each team member can make it easier for teams to collaborate with the same customer.

    Big Deal Alerts

    • Big Deal Alerts allow notifying users when an opportunity reaches a certain amount or probability.
    • This feature can be used to trigger an alert to the director of sales when opportunities reach an amount of $500,000.

    Converted Leads

    • Two ways to access converted leads for editing are:
      • Find them in the global search result
      • Utilize a list view where lead status equals Qualified

    Sales Process

    • A sales process is a set of stages that an opportunity goes through as it moves from creation to close.
    • Creating a new sales process can help define a different set of stages for a new product or business model.

    External ID

    • External ID fields allow storing unique identifiers from external systems and using them for matching records during import or update operations.
    • External ID fields can be used for upsert operations that insert new records or update existing ones based on external ID values.### Marketing User Feature License
    • Enables users to create, edit, and delete campaigns
    • Allows users to manage campaign members and update campaign history via import wizards or API
    • Edit permission for campaigns allows users to modify existing campaigns and related records

    Critical Update Activation

    • Activate critical updates in a sandbox first to test their impact before auto-activation
    • This ensures customizations and integrations work as expected without affecting the production org

    Path Configuration

    • Path is a feature that allows users to visually see sales stages on an opportunity page
    • Path can include guidance and key fields for each stage to help users move opportunities along the sales process
    • Key considerations for path configuration include guidance and key fields for each stage

    Escalation Rules

    • An escalation rule is a tool that allows administrators to automatically escalate cases based on certain criteria and time triggers
    • Examples of escalation actions include changing the owner of a case, sending an email notification, or updating a field value

    Validation Rules

    • Validation rules are used to require users to follow status values as they are on the path
    • Prevent users from reverting back to previous status values
    • Use validation rules to check if the status field value is changed from one value to another value that is not allowed by business logic

    Importing and Updating Records

    • Use an external ID as an identifier when importing and updating records from an external system
    • An external ID is a custom field that has the external ID attribute enabled
    • External ID allows administrators to match records based on a unique ID value from another system

    Picklist Values

    • Use a dependent picklist to ensure that only valid values are selected for a field
    • Use a custom picklist to create picklists with values specific to the organization's needs
    • Dependent picklist and custom picklist can be used to fulfill the requirement of using consistent picklist values on a category field on accounts and cases

    Providing Access to a Field

    • Use permission sets to grant additional access to users without changing their profiles
    • Create a permission set that includes the appropriate object and field permissions for the lead object
    • Assign the permission set to the users who need access to the lead object

    Marking a Field as Required

    • When marking a field as required, the field is universally required to save a record on that object in the user interface
    • However, the field is not required to save records via the API on that object, unless also marked as required on the page layout
