The business analyst at Universal Containers is writing users stories to support the Salesforce implementation for the sales operations division. There is a request for visibility into sales rep’ pipeline so that can see their revenue.

Which missing component is necessary to finish this user story?


A. Who


B. Why


C. When





B.
  Why

Explanation:

The missing component necessary to finish this user story is why because it describes the benefit or value that sales reps will get from having visibility into their pipeline revenue (such as forecasting sales performance or identifying opportunities). The who part of this user story is “sales reps” because it describes the user role or persona who will benefit from this feature or functionality. The what part of this user story is “visibility into sales rep’ pipeline” because it describes the feature or functionality that sales reps want or need.

The Salesforce development team is strictly following scrum to govern its releases. An executive trying to plan a vacation wants to know when work on the feature will begin so they can be available for additional implementation questions. After consulting with the product owner, the business analyst (BA) learns the team has decided to adopt Kanban instead for all future releases.

What should the BA tell the executive?


A. Work will begin after executive approval is given.


B. Work will begin in the next sprint.


C. Work will begin when capacity becomes available





C.
  Work will begin when capacity becomes available

Explanation:

The business analyst should tell the executive that work will begin when capacity becomes available. This is because Kanban is a development model that focuses on continuous delivery and flow of work, rather than fixed iterations or sprints. Kanban uses a visual board that shows the status of work items across different stages, such as backlog, in progress, done, etc. Work items are pulled from one stage to another when there is available capacity or demand, rather than according to a predefined schedule or plan. Work will not begin after executive approval is given or in the next sprint because these are concepts that are more relevant for other development models such as change set development or org development.

Which users will be able to reset a Single Sign-On User Password?


A. The SSO Manager


B. Users above the SSO user in the role hierarchy.


C. Only the Admin


D. Admin and Users with the right permission sets





C.
  Only the Admin

Explanation:

Only the Admin can reset a Single Sign-On user password because they have the Manage Users permission. The SSO Manager, users above the SSO user in the role hierarchy, and users with the right permission sets cannot reset a Single Sign-On user password unless they also have the Manage Users permission.

Northern Trail Outfitters (NTO) is a rapidly growing company that hired a business analyst (BA) to help revamp its sales and support processes. The stakeholder at NTO wants to understand the value of Application Lifecycle Management (ALM).

What are benefits of ALM that the BA should share with the stakeholder?


A. ALM provides processes and policies which help build apps more efficiently.


B. ALM offers preview access to the three Salesforce Releases per year.


C. ALM allows features to remain static and reduces incremental changes.





A.
  ALM provides processes and policies which help build apps more efficiently.

Explanation:

One of the benefits of ALM that the BA should share with the stakeholder is that ALM provides processes and policies which help build apps more efficiently. ALM is a framework that defines and manages the stages and activities involved in developing, testing, deploying, and maintaining software applications. ALM helps to:

Build apps more efficiently: ALM helps to streamline and standardize the development process, reduce errors and rework, improve collaboration and communication among team members and stakeholders, and ensure quality and consistency of the applications.

Align with business goals and needs: ALM helps to ensure that the applications meet the requirements and expectations of the users and stakeholders, deliver value and benefits to the business, and support the business strategy and objectives.

Adapt to changes and challenges: ALM helps to enable continuous feedback and improvement, incorporate new features and functionalities, address issues and risks, and leverage new technologies and innovations. The other options are either incorrect or irrelevant. Option B is incorrect because ALM does not offer preview access to the three Salesforce releases per year, but rather requires maintenance exams or modules to keep up with the releases. Option C is incorrect because ALM does not allow features to remain static and reduce incremental changes, but rather encourages iterative and agile development that embraces changes and enhancements.

During a requirements workshop, the marketing team mentions they need help reporting on their marketing effort return on investment (ROI). They ask for a new field on the Opportunity object named "Customer Origin".

What should the business analyst do next?


A. Explain to the customer that the workshop is focused on documenting requirements, rather than solutioning, and write down their pain points.


B. Write the user story: As a marketer, I need to track customer origin on Opportunity so that I can report on the ROI of our marketing efforts.


C. Ask follow-up questions to determine if standard Salesforce functionality around Leads, Campaigns, and Opportunities could meet this need.





C.
  Ask follow-up questions to determine if standard Salesforce functionality around Leads, Campaigns, and Opportunities could meet this need.

Explanation:

When the marketing team expresses a need for a new field to track ROI, the BA should explore existing Salesforce functionalities before customizing. Salesforce provides robust features around Leads, Campaigns, and Opportunities that can potentially track marketing efforts and their outcomes. By asking follow-up questions, the BA can understand the specific requirements and assess whether these can be met with standard features, which is often more efficient and sustainable than adding custom fields. This approach aligns with Salesforce best practices of leveraging out-of-the-box functionality to meet business needs, ensuring system simplicity and maintainability.
