Salesforce Certified-Business-Analyst - Salesforce Certified Business Analyst Exam (SP25)

This answer states that business users, project manager, and key stakeholders are the people who should participate in UAT for an Experience Cloud implementation. UAT is a phase of testing where the BA verifies that the solution meets the requirements and expectations of the end users or customers. Business users are the people who will use or benefit from the solution on a regular basis, and who can provide feedback on its functionality, usability, and value. Project manager is the person who oversees and coordinates the project activities, resources, and deliverables, and who can ensure that UAT is conducted according to the project plan and scope. Key stakeholders are the people who have a significant interest or influence in the project outcome, and who can approve or reject the solution based on UAT results

Change Sets are used to declaratively move metadata from one environment to another in Salesforce. Change Sets are outbound sets of changes that can be sent from one Salesforce org to another using deployment connections. Data Loader, Import Wizard, and Ant Migration are not used to declaratively move metadata in Salesforce. References: https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=sf.changesets.htm &type=5

This answer considers scalability as the most important aspect of a potential solution for NTO’s security challenge. Scalability refers to the ability of a system to handle increased workload or demand without compromising performance or functionality. Since NTO plans to significantly grow its workforce, it needs a security solution that can accommodate more users, data, and features without compromising security or efficiency.

The mistake made in capturing these acceptance criteria was that they include solution information instead of focusing on what needs to be achieved by implementing this feature or functionality. For example, specifying that “a service manager can click a Reassign button” implies a particular design choice rather than describing what outcome should be achieved by reassigning cases (such as transferring ownership or notifying new owners). Acceptance criteria should be aligned with the user’s goal rather than prescribing how to achieve it so that they do not limit creativity or innovation in finding solutions. Acceptance criteria should also be small and testable so that they can be easily verified by using techniques such as scenarios or test cases.

The analysis that a BA should perform is strategy analysis. Strategy analysis is a technique that helps to understand the business context and environment of an organization, its vision and goals, its strengths and weaknesses, its opportunities and threats, its capabilities and resources, and its stakeholders and competitors. Strategy analysis helps to identify the business problems or needs that need to be addressed, evaluate potential solutions or options that can address them, and align them with the business strategy and objectives. In this case, CK faces challenges with accurate reporting and metrics to use when scheduling service agent shifts. A BA should perform strategy analysis to understand CK’s business context and environment, identify the root causes of the challenges, evaluate potential solutions or options that can solve them in Salesforce, and align them with CK’s business strategy and objectives.

User License is the User Management term that is best described by this definition: “Item assigned to a User that determines the functionality that they can access across the Salesforce ecosystem”. Role is a User Management term that controls data visibility and reporting hierarchy within an organization based on users’ positions. Profile is a User Management term that defines what users can do within an organization based on their job function and responsibilities.

The reference that the business analyst should consult to learn more about the previous consultant’s recommendation is an Entity Relationship Diagram (ERD). An ERD is a diagram that shows the logical structure and relationships of data entities in a database or system. An ERD helps to model and document how data entities are organized, connected, and interact with each other. An ERD also helps to normalize data entities by reducing redundancy and inconsistency in data storage and retrieval. The previous consultant recommended that Universal Containers move to a more normalized data model to represent its containers, which means that they wanted to avoid storing duplicate or unnecessary data in multiple tables or fields. The business analyst should consult an ERD to learn more about how the previous consultant proposed to design and implement a more normalized data model for Universal Containers.

The management process that the business analyst should suggest to help the teams align on their competing priorities is Vision, Values, Methods, Obstacles, and Measures (V2MOM). V2MOM is a framework that helps to define and communicate a shared vision and strategy for a project or organization. V2MOM stands for Vision (what you want to achieve), Values (what’s important to you), Methods (how you will get it done), Obstacles (what might stand in your way), and Measures (how you will know when you’re successful). V2MOM helps to align teams on their common goals and priorities, as well as track their progress and results.

This answer states that gathering requirements and analyzing them is the first step in the Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) process that should be taken for adding a custom field to a page layout in a sandbox for Universal Containers. ALM is a framework that defines and manages the stages involved in developing, testing, deploying, and maintaining a software application. ALM typically consists of these steps: gather requirements and analyze them, design and build solutions, test solutions, deploy solutions, and maintain solutions. Gathering requirements and analyzing them means that the BA identifies and understands the business needs and expectations of the stakeholders or users, and defines what the solution must do or have to meet them.
