Explanation
The coalesce option on a field map allows you to specify if the selected Target field should be used to coalesce on when import set records are transformed. If the field map Coalesce checkbox is selected when the import set row is transformed the instance checks for an existing record in the target table that has the same value in the Target field as the import set row Source field.
In the workflow, what is the workflow timeline?
Shows the progress of workflow. it provides a complete time-based display of activities associated with workflow context.
Explanation

An updated set is an XML file that contains:
· A set of record details that uniquely identify the update set.
· A list of configuration changes.
· A state that determines whether another instance can retrieve and apply configuration changes.
Update sets track changes to applications and system platform features. This allows developers to create new functionality on a non-production instance and promote the changes to another instance.

What is a role?
It is one record in the sys_user_role table; and, it’s a persona that is assigned to a group or person, i.e., grant access and assign security controls
Explanation
A role is a collection of permissions in the Now Platform. These permissions define which applications a user or group will and will not be able to access within the system and which actions the user will be able to take on records within the applications. A role can be assigned to a single user or a group of users. Users and groups can be assigned more than one role. A role can contain other roles. In the example below, the catalog_admin role contains the catalog and user_criteria_admin roles. If a user or group was assigned the catalog_admin role, they would be granted the permissions of all three roles. Generally, when you think about your “role” in the workplace, you are thinking about your specific position or title, such as project manager, developer, or operations manager. It is the part you play and the job you perform every day. For the Now Platform, the word “role” defines your capabilities in the application. Therefore, it is important to distinguish between the different definitions.

Single-field coalesce
Explanation
The coalesce option on a field map allows you to specify if the selected Target field should be used to coalesce on when import set records are transformed. If the field map Coalesce checkbox is selected, when the import set row is transformed the instance checks for an existing record in the target table that has the same value in the Target field as the import set row Source field. Coalesce can be: · Single-field coalesce · Multiple-field coalesce · Conditional coalesce
By using ____ two tables can be joined virtually
Database views
Explanation
A database view defines table joins for reporting purposes. For example, a database view can join the Incident table to the Metric Definition and Metric Instance tables. This view can be used to report on incident metrics and may include fields from any of these three tables. *Note : In general, as the number of tables that are included in the view and the number of records that those tables contain increases, the accumulated impact on performance grows. In addition, to optimize the performance of the database view ensure that the ‘where’ clauses that are defined in the database view are based on indexed fields. * *Database views cannot be created on tables that participate in table rotation. ** It is not possible to edit data within a database view. ** You do not need to create ACLs on fields in the view. The system honours contextual ACLs (ACLs with a condition or script) that already exist on the underlying table.
