The contact record component that must be present so users can see a visual representation of their emails and phone calls with a contact is the Activities Timeline. The Activities Timeline shows a chronological list of past and upcoming activities related to a record, such as emails, calls, meetings, tasks, and events. Users can see the details, status, and attachments of each activity, and also create, edit, or delete activities from the timeline. Activity Capture is a feature that automatically syncs emails and events between Salesforce and email and calendar applications, but it does not show a visual representation of them on the contact record. Salesforce Inbox is a product that enhances email and calendar productivity with Salesforce integration, but it also does not show a visual representation of activities on the contact record.

The user can clone the list view with a new name, and filter by the specific city to see only contacts from that city on the list view. This will not affect what other users see on the original list view.

 Trailhead is the resource that the Salesforce associate should use to learn more about converting leads to contacts in an asynchronous, gamified way.

Trailhead allows the user to learn at their own pace, in their own time, and in their own way. Trailhead also provides gamification features, such as badges, points, and ranks, to motivate and reward the user for their learning progress. Trailhead has a module called Lead Management that covers the topic of converting leads to contacts, among other topics. Salesforce Help is a resource that provides documentation, guides, videos, and support for Salesforce users who need assistance with using or troubleshooting Salesforce products and features. Salesforce Help is not a learning platform, and it does not provide gamification features. The Trailblazer Community is a resource that provides an online platform where Salesforce users, partners, employees, and experts can connect, collaborate, and learn from each other. The Trailblazer Community is not a learning platform, and it does not provide gamification features.

Excel (.xlsx or .xls) file or comma-separated values (.csv) are the types of files that the report can be exported into. Exporting a report allows the user to save the report data as a file that can be opened and edited in other applications, such as Microsoft Excel or Google Sheets. The user can choose to export the report as a formatted report, which preserves the report formatting and layout, or as a details only report, which includes only the report data without the formatting and layout. A formatted report can be exported as an Excel (.xlsx or .xls) file or a PDF (.pdf) file. A details only report can be exported as a comma-separated values (.csv) file. A Word (.doc or .docx) file is not a type of file that the report can be exported into.

The way that the associate can locate all the reports in a single location from the Report object is to click on All Folders and use the search bar. All Folders is a menu that shows all the report and dashboard folders that the associate has access to. The associate can search for the current month’s folder by entering its name or keyword in the search bar and then select it to view all the reports in that folder. Using the Global search bar or clicking on All Reports and using the search bar are not as efficient and accurate as using the All Folders menu, because they will return results from all the reports and folders, not just the current month’s folder.

The Object Manager is where field dependencies for an object can be reviewed. The Object Manager allows the user to view and manage the metadata of standard and custom objects in Salesforce, such as fields, page layouts, record types, buttons, and actions. Field dependencies are a type of metadata that define the relationship between a controlling field and a dependent field. For example, a field dependency could be set up so that the values available in a picklist field called Region depend on the value selected in another picklist field called Country. Profiles are used to define the baseline access and permissions for users based on their license type and job function. App Builder is a tool that allows the user to create and customize apps and pages in Salesforce using drag-and-drop components.

Salesforce operates on a multi-tenant architecture, where a single instance of the platform serves multiple customers (tenants). Each tenant’s data is securely isolated, but they share common resources, such as server space, database instances, and updates. This approach ensures cost efficiency and scalability.

A. Costs more than single-tenant architecture: Multi-tenancy reduces costs due to shared resources.

B. Reserves resources per tenant: Resources are shared rather than reserved individually.
