To streamline the process for service agents seeking order updates from a separate ERP system, using Salesforce Connect to integrate External Objects is recommended. This approach allows real-time access to order information directly within Salesforce, eliminating the need to switch between applications and improving efficiency in handling customer requests.

In a Case History report, Salesforce tracks field changes for any fields that have field history tracking enabled. For each tracked field, the Old Value and New Value are recorded, providing an audit trail of how and when data changed. These two fields — Old Value and New Value — are available for viewing only and cannot be edited or updated.

This report helps service managers analyze how cases evolve over time and identify process bottlenecks or data integrity issues.

Option A is incorrect because “Data Type” is not a tracked field in history reports.

Option B is incorrect because the “User” field (who made the change) is editable in user management, not view-only within this report type.

The feature that enables agents to handle both time-sensitive and long-running work effectively isInterruptible Capacity. This allows Omni-Channel to route urgent work items to agents even if they are already handling less critical tasks.

From the official Salesforce documentation:

"When agents handle both time-sensitive and long-running work, Omni-Channel can route time-critical work items so that customers receive faster response times. Define less pressing work items as interruptible so that Omni-Channel can route more urgent work to agents right away."

—Omni-Channel for Administrators

By configuring work items as interruptible, agents can be assigned high-priority tasks without delay, ensuring that urgent customer needs are addressed promptly while still managing ongoing work.

Before beginning the build phase, especially in a dynamic environment with multiple projects and limited resources, it's crucial to complete the Design step. This involves defining the architecture, user experience, and functional requirements, ensuring that the development team has a clear blueprint to follow, which can adapt to changes and prioritize urgent work efficiently.
