Universal Containers (UC) is about to implement Sales Cloud, Service Cloud, and Revenue Cloud within its newly created Salesforce environment. But before UC begins, the CIO would like to understand the options for creating and migrating changes within Salesforce. UC is about to use a sandbox for the initial build and will deploy customisation up to the production environment. UC has decided to build packages of metadata to silothe functionality between the three clouds it is implementing for.
What are two key considerations a Solution Architect should keep in mind when recommending packaging?
Choose 2answers


A. Design the package as modular, loosely coupled units of metadata rather than large chunks of an org.


B. Only utilize one functional automation tool (Flow, Workflow Rules, Process Builder) per object.


C. It is impossible to track source controlwith package development; either the org owns the source or a source control does, but never both.


D. Clouds like Revenue Cloud have their own packages so it is easy to work with them because their automation is limited.





A.
  Design the package as modular, loosely coupled units of metadata rather than large chunks of an org.

B.
  Only utilize one functional automation tool (Flow, Workflow Rules, Process Builder) per object.

Explanation: Packaging is a way of organizing and distributing your customizations and applications onthe Salesforce platform1. Packaging can help you manage changes across different environments, such as sandboxes and production2.
Designing the package as modular, loosely coupled units of metadata rather than large chunks of an org is a bestpractice forpackaging3. This can help you avoid dependencies and conflicts between different packages and clouds3. It can also make your package easier to maintain and upgrade3.
Only utilizing one functional automation tool (Flow, Workflow Rules, Process Builder) perobject is another best practice for packaging4. This can help you avoid performance issues and unexpected behaviors caused by multiple tools triggering on the same object4. It canalso make your package easier to debug and test4.

As part of this implementation, UC is looking to be able to have a streamlined productand pricing experience. As UC would like to sell product kits with tiered pricing through the self-service storefront, it would like to ensure this model can be supported effectively.
Which two considerations should a Solution Architect keep in mind for the implementation? Choose 2 answers


A. for supporting kits in the B2B Commerce Storefront, they need to create equivalent bundle products on the CPQ side.

A.
  for supporting kits in the B2B Commerce Storefront, they need to create equivalent bundle products on the CPQ side.

C.
  On the CPQ 826 Commerce Connector, the default mapping of tiered pricing in 826 Commerce is to Discount Schedules in CPQ.

For supporting kits in the B2B Commerce Storefront, they need to create equivalent bundle products on the CPQ side3. A kit is a product that contains other products as components3. A bundle is a product that has one or more options that can be added or removed by a user4. The connector maps kits to bundles using a custom field called Kit ID on both objects3.
On the CPQ 826 Commerce Connector, the default mapping of tieredpricing in 826 Commerce is to DiscountSchedules in CPQ5. Tiered pricing lets you set different prices for different quantities of aproduct5. Discount schedules let you apply discounts based on quantity or amount ranges for a product. The connector maps tiered prices to discount schedules using a custom field called Tiered Price ID on both objects5.

Universal Containers (UC) is implementing a SalesforceB2B multi-cloud project with large volumes of data and daily transactions from multiple third-party systems via multiple integrations. UC is looking at transactions of more than 1 million records a week and, in higher seasons, 10 million records a week. UC has made the decision to get a full copy sandbox to use to test all of its third-party integrations across its multiple clouds. UC has also invested in MuleSoft and the Anypoint Platform as the single enterprise service bus for all of the third-party data going into Salesforce.
Which type of performance testing should a Solution Architect recommend for testing data at scale on this project?


A. Perform API load test against the full copy sandbox before go live.


B. Perform unit testing against the full copysandbox codebase before go live in production.


C. Perform page load testing against production after go live.


D. Perform API load test against thepartial copy sandbox before go live.





A.
  Perform API load test against the full copy sandbox before go live.

Explanation: There are different types of performance testing, such as load testing, stress testing, endurance testing, and spike testing. Each type has a different purpose and goal. the best type ofperformance testing is API load test against the full copy sandbox before go live. This type of test can help you evaluate how well your integrations handle high volumes of data and transactions from multiple sources. It can also help you validate the functionality and performance of your MuleSoft Anypoint Platform.
To perform an API load test, you need to create a test plan thatdefines the test scenarios, test data, test tools, and test metrics. You also need to submit a request for performance testing toSalesforce2 and follow their guidelines and best practices.
A full copy sandbox is a good environment for API load test because it has the same data and metadata as your production org3. This can help you simulate realistic conditions and avoid data skew issues.

D. Give the end users access to a sandbox environment and a testing script for each of the user stories. Ask UAT testers to perform their tasks and collect feedback from them in the testing script.





D.
  Give the end users access to a sandbox environment and a testing script for each of the user stories. Ask UAT testers to perform their tasks and collect feedback from them in the testing script.

Explanation: user acceptance testing (UAT) is a stage in the software development cycle designed to test if the solution supports the business and user needs in a real-world scenario. UAT involves end users or domain experts who follow a series of test steps to verify if specific requirements perform as expected.
Give the end users access to a sandbox environment and a testing script for each of the user stories. Ask UAT testers to perform their tasks and collect feedback from them in the testing script. This method would allow the end users to get hands-on experience with the solution as soon as possible and provide feedback on any issues or gaps they encounter. This would also ensure that what was built aligns with the original requirements and meets their expectations13.

Northern Trail Outfitters (NTO) currently use Sales Cloud to track deals and now wants to use channel sales to distribute and tell products through resellers (partners).

These metrics will give NTO early feedback on how theportal is being used by their partners and will provide insight into their success in using the Partner Community. Product types sold and opportunity win rates arelagging metrics and may not provide timely feedback on the success of the Partner Community.
Leading metrics are indicators that show what’s happening and can have real-time impact on your bottom line12.
