Question#2

A VP of sales is requesting an easy-to-understand visual representation of accounts and opportunities that have been worked on by the sales agents in the current quarter in order to identify trends, sort data, and measure the impact of their activities.
What is recommended to meet these requirements?

A. Create a list views.
B. Create a dashboard.
C. Create a custom tab.

Explanation:
Creating a dashboard is the recommended way to meet the requirements of displaying an easy-to-understand visual representation of accounts and opportunities that have been worked on by the sales agents in the current quarter. A dashboard is a collection of components that display data from one or more reports in a graphical format, such as charts, gauges, metrics, and tables. A dashboard allows the user to identify trends, sort data, and measure the impact of their activities. For example, a dashboard could show the number of accounts and opportunities by sales agent, the total amount of closed won opportunities by month, and the average deal size by industry. Creating a list view would not work, because a list view is a filtered set of records that display data in a tabular format, not a graphical format. A list view does not allow the user to identify trends, sort data, or measure the impact of their activities. Creating a custom tab would not work, because a custom tab is a user interface element that allows the user to access a custom object, a web page, or a Lightning page. A custom tab does not display data in a graphical format, but in a record detail or page layout format.

Explanation:

Validation and assignment rules are used to enforce data quality and automate business processes.

The Object Manager is where the associate should go to see the information about all the objects within their company’s instance and identify which are custom objects.

The Object Manager can be accessed by clicking the Setup icon in the header, then clicking Object Manager.

The App Launcher is where the user can access all the apps and objects in Salesforce, such as Sales, Service, Marketing, and so on. The App Launcher does not show the information about the objects, such as fields, page layouts, or record types. The Global Search is where the user can search for records across multiple objects and fields using keywords or phrases.
