The customer service agents of Cosmic Service Solutions use a Chatter group to share recommendations related to support. A service manager is the owner of the group.

Chris is an admin for Indiana Global Finance Corp. He had a meeting with the marketing manager who requested that if leads score more than 45 points, the lead status should be updated to “Qualified” and an email notification updating Marketing team members should be sent along with a task that will get assigned to the lead owner.

A service manager wants to send an email reminder to customers who have failed their energy audit to schedule another audit after they have completed the required modifications. They want this to be done weekly for all the records that still have a failed audit status. How the admin easily fulfill this request? Choose 1
A.) Create a scheduled flow for the set of records that have a failed audit status to send an email
B.) Create a batch Apex for the records that failed the energy audit and schedule Apex to send the email
C.) Create a process using Process Builder to select the records with a failed audit status and send an email reminder
D.) Create a workflow to select the records with a failed audit status and associate a workflow action to send an email
A.) Create a scheduled flow for the set of records that have a failed audit status to send an email
Using a scheduled flow, a set of records can be selected based on specified criteria. A “send email” action can be added to the flow to send an email reminder to customers who continue to have a failed audit status. This can also be done using Apex, using batch Apex to select the specific records and schedule Apex to send the email reminder. However, this is a more complex solution than using a declarative option such as flow. Processes and workflows only start when records are changed and can only send email alerts.
An admin is considering the user of a cross-object workflow field update to update the parent record when a child record is modified. Which of the following are valid statements regarding the objects that are supported for cross-object field updates? Choose 2

Chris is an admin who has received a request from his support team manager to create a workflow rule for the case record. The manager requested that every time a support agent updates a case which has a cost value of more than $1000, an email should be sent to the manager’s mailbox that includes the case number and case owner.

A.) When a record is created
B.) When a record is created, and every time it’s edited
C.) When a record is edited, and any time it’s edited to subsequently meet criteria

A Sales manager would like to have an email alert sent to all the sales team members every time an opportunity with an amount greater than $75,000 is updated by a sales representative.

A.) When a record is created, and any time it’s edited to subsequently meet criteria
B.) When a record is created, and every time it’s edited
C.) When a record is created
D.) Every time a record is edited
B.) When a record is created, and every time it’s edited
Since the requirement is to trigger an email alert every time an opp with a value greater then $75,000 is updated, the option “created, and every time it’s edited” should be selected, so that any updates to the record trigger the email as long as the opp value doesn’t go below $75,000

Cosmic Lights uses the standard Contact object to store information about people associated with B2B companies that purchase the products manufactured by the company. A custom object is used to store information about sales orders. When a person associated with a company purchases a product, a custom field on that person’s contact record is updated by a salesperson manually. When this field is updated, an SFDC survey should be sent to the person to gather certain information, such as the reason behind the purchase and how their previous purchases influenced the recent purchase decision. What solution should be recommended to meet this requirement? Choose 1
A.) Create a workflow rule that sends an outbound message to a third-party survey application when the value of the custom field changes
B.) Create a flow using Flow Builder to send a survey invitation to the contact automatically when the value of the custom field changes
C.) Create an Apex trigger that send a survey invitation to the contact when the value of the custom field changes
D.) Create a process using Process Builder that executed an action type called “Send Survey Invitation” when the value of the custom field changes.
D.) Create a process using Process Builder that executed an action type called “Send Survey Invitation” when the value of the custom field changes.
A process can be created using Process Builder to execute an action type called “Send Survey Invitation”. This action type can be utilized to automatically email survey invitations to leads, contacts, or users. In this case, the process can be triggered automatically when the value of the custom field changes.
When specifying rule criteria for a Workflow, which of the following options can be used in the rule criteria? Choose 2
A.) A formula
B.) A CAPTCHA code
C.) A formula and combination of field criteria at the same time
D.) A combination of field criteria

Workflow criteria can be specified EITHER as a combination of field value comparisons OR as a formula evaluation, but not both at the same time. A CAPTCHA code is not an option that can be selected when specifying rule criteria for a workflow.
An admin wants to convert a lead automatically based on certain criteria and send an email to the related contact one day after lead conversion. Howe can this be achieved? Choose 1
A.) Use a time-based approval process to email the contact one day after the lead conversion is approved
B.) Set a time-based workflow rule to email the new contact
C.) This can not be done automatically, the email must be sent manually
D.) Use process builder with a flow action to convert the lead and add a Wait element to set a one day wait period to automatically email the contact
D.) Use process builder with a flow action to convert the lead and add a Wait element to set a one day wait period to automatically email the contact
The Wait element can automate processes that require a time-based waiting period. A Wait element can be added to a flow and configured for the events if needs to wait for. Setting a time-dependent action can be added to a workflow rule but since the requirement also needs to convert the lead, this option will not satisfy the requirement. The requirement needs leads to be converted automatically based on criteria so an approval process is not necessary. A time-dependent action is also not available as an approval action option in an approval process.
Which users can approve or reject email approval requests via email? Choose 1
A.) Approvers specified in the approval process only
B.) All active users
C.) No users can approve or reject a request via email
D.) Approvers specified in the approval process and all delegated approvers
D.) Approvers specified in the approval process and all delegated approvers
All approvers and delegated approvers can approve or reject email approval request by replying to those requests via email.
The admin has been asked to create a workflow rule that will send an email alert to the opp owner and senior managment when an opp has an amount great than $100,000. Also, a follow-up task should be created for the opp owner if the deal is still open when the close date passes. What evaluation criteria and action should the admin choose? Choose 1
A.) Every time a record is created and associated a workflow task
B.) Every time a record is created/edited and associate a workflow email alert
C.) Every time a record is created and every time it’s edited to subsequently meet criteria, and associate an outbound message

D.) Every time a record is created and every time it’s edited to subsequently meet criteria, and associate an email alert and a workflow task
In this scenario, both an email alert and a workflow task action should be created and associated with the workflow rule when a record is created or saved to meet the criteria.
