Free Practice Questions for Salesforce Platform-App-Builder Exam

 A formula field cannot be referenced by a roll-up summary field if it contains a cross-object field reference or a time-based function. A cross-object field reference is a reference to a field from a different object, such as Account. Name on a Contact object. A time-based function is a function that returns the current date or time, such as NOW() or TODAY(). Option A and C do not prevent a formula field from being referenced by a roll-up summary field.

To configure a custom Lightning component for use in a record page, the app builder needs to edit a record page using the Lightning App Builder and drag the component onto the page. The Page Layout editor and the App Manager are not used for this purpose

The opportunity standard fields that are available to be configured directly are Stage, Lead Source, and Type. These fields can be modified by editing their picklist values, adding or removing values, or changing their default values. Option A is incorrect because Forecast Category is not a standard field on the opportunity object, but rather a system field that is automatically derived from the Stage field.

Escalation rules and Process Builder are two automation processes that can be used to send a notification when a case stays in the ‘’ new’’ status for more than four business hours. Escalation rules can define criteria and actions for escalating cases based on time or other factors. Process Builder can create a time-based action that triggers an email alert when the case status is ‘’ new’’ for more than four business hours. Flow Builder and Scheduled Apex are not necessary for this requirement.

Users will be unable to view the Account Interest records or the Interest records because they do not have read access to the Interest object. This is a standard behavior of Salesforce when a user does not have access to a related object.

The app builder should recommend a workflow rule to automate this process. A workflow rule is a type of automation tool that can execute actions based on certain criteria. In this case, the workflow rule can have a criterion that evaluates if the DoNotCall checkbox is checked on a Contact record, and then execute a field update action that sets the Phone field to null. Option A, B, and C are not automation tools that can perform this task.

The app builder should provision a Partial Data sandbox to the developer. A Partial Data sandbox can have up to 5 GB of data, which meets the requirement of having at least half a gigabyte of data. A Partial Data sandbox can also be refreshed every 5 days, which meets the requirement of refreshing after each three-day sprint. Option A is incorrect because a Developer sandbox can only have up to 200 MB of data, which does not meet the requirement. Option B is incorrect because a Full Copy sandbox can only be refreshed every 29 days, which does not meet the requirement. Option C is incorrect because a Developer Pro sandbox can only have up to 1 GB of data, which may not be enough for the requirement.

To allow quick editing of a record's status and entering a due date from the record's feed in the Salesforce Mobile App:

A. Custom action. This option enables users to perform specific tasks directly from the record page in the Salesforce Mobile App, such as editing fields.

Steps to create a custom action:

Navigate to Setup → Object Manager → select the relevant object.

Click Buttons, Links, and Actions → New Action.

Set Action Type to 'Update a Record'.

Configure the action layout to include the Status and Custom Due Date fields.

Add the action to the Salesforce Mobile layout.

This setup provides an efficient way for users to update key fields without navigating away from the record feed.

For detailed setup instructions, see Salesforce's documentation on Creating Quick Actions.

To allow users access to Flows, Salesforce offers multiple integration points:

A. Quick Action: Flows can be initiated from record pages, the app utility bar, or global actions using Quick Actions. This allows users to execute flows relevant to specific records or global processes.

C. Flow Launcher: A component available in Lightning App Builder that enables users to start flows directly from a Lightning page.

Steps to set up these features:

For Quick Actions, navigate to Setup → Object Manager → select object → Buttons, Links, and Actions → New Action → Action Type (Flow).

For Flow Launcher, navigate to Lightning App Builder → select the page → drag the Flow component to the desired section of the page → configure it to launch the specific flow.

For more information on integrating Flows, check the Salesforce documentation on Flow Distribution.
