Certified-Business-Analyst Salesforce Certified Business Analyst Exam (SP23) Question and Answers

The items that the business analyst documented are non-functional requirements. Non-functional requirements are statements that describe how a system or solution should perform, behave, or appear, rather than what it should do or provide. Non-functional requirements can include aspects such as usability, reliability, security, availability, scalability, etc. Non-functional requirements help to ensure that the system or solution meets the quality standards and expectations of the stakeholders or users. The items that the business analyst documented are non-functional requirements because they specify how Sales Cloud should perform (portal pages should load within 2 seconds) and behave (all logins must use multi-factor authentication).

This answer selects Universal Process Notation (UPN) as the diagramming notation that the BA should use for the process map. UPN is a simple and standardized way of creating process maps, using only four symbols: activity, decision, start/end, and annotation. UPN can help the BA create a process map that is applicable across all industries, provides context for metrics and management decisions, and supports regulatory considerations.

The best practice for understanding the sales reps process in order to increase Salesforce adoption is to host focus groups, conduct surveys, and shadow the sales reps to observe the tools they use and how they use them. These methods help to elicit feedback and insights from the sales reps, understand their pain points and needs, identify the gaps and opportunities in their current process, and demonstrate the value and benefits of using Salesforce. The other options are either insufficient or irrelevant. Option B does not capture the sales reps’ perspectives or preferences, and may not reflect their actual usage of Salesforce. Option C does not address the sales reps’ process or challenges, and may not be applicable or effective for them.

The business analyst should monitor the Lightning Usage App to address the concern of sales leadership about the limited adoption of Salesforce at Cloud Kicks. The Lightning Usage App is a tool that tracks and reports on how users are engaging with Salesforce in Lightning Experience. The Lightning Usage App can help measure and improve user adoption by showing metrics such as daily and monthly active users, usage by browser and device type, usage by profile and permission set, feature adoption, performance, and feedback. The business analyst should monitor the Lightning Usage App to identify trends, patterns, issues, or opportunities related to user adoption and take actions accordingly. Running the Lightning page layout is not an action that the business analyst should take to address the concern of sales leadership about the limited adoption of Salesforce at Cloud Kicks. Running the Lightning page layout is a process that optimizes a page layout for Lightning Experience by removing unsupported components, adding supported components, and rearranging components based on best practices. Running the Lightning page layout can help improve user experience and satisfaction but does not measure or improve user adoption directly. Enabling Debug Logs is not an action that the business analyst should take to address the concern of sales leadership about the limited adoption of Salesforce at Cloud Kicks. Enabling Debug Logs is a process that captures information about database operations, system processes, and errors that occur when executing a transaction or running unit tests. Enabling Debug Logs can help troubleshoot issues and errors but does not measure or improve user adoption directly.

This answer recommends prototyping as an elicitation technique to help the team meet its goal of filling out a survey based on customer feedback. Prototyping is a technique that involves creating a mockup or a sample of a solution to demonstrate how it will look and function. Prototyping can help the BA validate requirements, solicit feedback, and refine the design of the solution. References: https://trailhead.salesforce.com/en/content/learn/modules/salesforce-business-analyst-quick-look/use-prototyping-to-validate-your-solution

The business analyst should tell the executive that work will begin when capacity becomes available. This is because Kanban is a development model that focuses on continuous delivery and flow of work, rather than fixed iterations or sprints. Kanban uses a visual board that shows the status of work items across different stages, such as backlog, in progress, done, etc. Work items are pulled from one stage to another when there is available capacity or demand, rather than according to a predefined schedule or plan. Work will not begin after executive approval is given or in the next sprint because these are concepts that are more relevant for other development models such as change set development or org development. References: https://trailhead.salesforce.com/content/learn/modules/salesforce-business-analyst- certification-prep/user-acceptance https://trailhead.salesforce.com/content/learn/modules/agile-development-with-scrum

The correct order of phases in the implementation lifecycle on a Salesforce project is analyze, build, deliver, operate. In the analyze phase, the business analyst elicits requirements, maps business processes, and creates user stories. In the build phase, the development team configures and customizes Salesforce based on the user stories. In the deliver phase, the solution is tested, validated, and deployed to production. In the operate phase, the solution is monitored, maintained, and improved based on feedback and metrics. References: https://trailhead.salesforce.com/content/learn/modules/salesforce-business-analyst-certification-prep/get-started-with-salesforce-business-analyst-certification-prep

This answer states that using a DevOps tool can help to track changes in real time and provide a single source of truth as the benefits of using a DevOps tool in this situation where the requirements tracking spreadsheet is often incomplete or out-of-sync for the Slack transition project. A DevOps tool is a software application that supports the collaboration and automation of development and operations teams, such as Git, Jira, or Azure DevOps. A DevOps tool can help to track changes in real time by synchronizing the code changes, user stories, tasks, and bugs across different environments and branches. A DevOps tool can also help to provide a single source of truth by storing and managing all the project artifacts, such as requirements, code, tests, and documentation, in one centralized location that is accessible and visible to all project team members. References: https://trailhead.salesforce.com/en/content/learn/modules/git-and-git-hub-basics/work-with-teams

The document that the business analyst should use to identify the people who can describe the business problem and provide detailed requirements is stakeholder analysis. Stakeholder analysis is a technique that identifies and evaluates the people who have an interest in or influence on a project or initiative. It can help the business analyst understand who are the key stakeholders, what are their roles and responsibilities, what are their needs and expectations, how they communicate and collaborate, etc. A RACI chart is a document that defines and clarifies the roles and responsibilities of different stakeholders in relation to specific tasks or deliverables. It can help the business analyst manage stakeholder expectations and avoid confusion or conflicts. A user story is a document that captures a requirement or feature from an end user’s perspective. It can help the business analyst communicate what needs to be done and why it matters. References: https://trailhead.salesforce.com/content/learn/modules/salesforce-business-analyst- certification-prep/collaboration-with-stakeholders https://trailhead.salesforce.com/content/learn/modules/salesforce-business-analyst-certification-prep/user-stories

The final step that a business analyst should perform during the user acceptance testing process that would ensure a “go” decision is to get written sign-off from all business stakeholders. Written sign-off means obtaining formal approval or confirmation from the business stakeholders that the system or solution meets their requirements or expectations and is ready to be released to production. Written sign-off helps to ensure a “go” decision by demonstrating that the system or solution has passed all the tests or validations, as well as resolving any issues or risks that may prevent the release. Written sign-off also helps to document and communicate the completion and acceptance of the user acceptance testing process. References: https://trailhead.salesforce.com/content/learn/modules/user-acceptance-testing-video/learn-about-user-acceptance-testing

This is the correct order for arranging the three components of a user story. The first component is “As a ”, which specifies the role or persona of the user who will benefit from the user story. The second component is “I want ”, which describes the goal or feature that the user wants to achieve or use. The third component is “so that ”, which explains the reason or value behind the goal or feature for the user. References: https://trailhead.salesforce.com/content/learn/modules/user-story-creation/write-user-stories

Whiteboarding is a technique that involves using a whiteboard or a similar tool to visually represent a process, problem, or solution. Whiteboarding helps the BA collaborate with multiple stakeholders by building a shared understanding of the current state, creating a space for everyone to contribute since the activity feels shared, and guiding the conversation while maintaining engagement. Whiteboarding also helps to identify issues, gaps, opportunities, and dependencies in the process, and to generate ideas and feedback from stakeholders.

Communicate Changes, Update Profiles and Communicate end of Changes are actions that belong to the Deploy phase of the four application lifecycle milestones. The Deploy phase involves moving changes from one environment to another and ensuring proper communication with stakeholders and end users. The Build phase involves creating solutions using declarative or programmatic tools based on requirements and design specifications. The Test phase involves verifying functionality, performance, security, and usability of solutions using various testing methods and tools. The Plan phase involves defining project scope, objectives, deliverables, resources, timeline, and risks. References: https://trailhead.salesforce.com/content/learn/modules/application-lifecycle-and-development-models/understand-the-application-lifecycle https://trailhead.salesforce.com/content/learn/modules/application-lifecycle-and-development-models/choose-a-development-model

DevOps is a set of practices that combines software development and IT operations to deliver software faster and more reliably. DevOps helps business analysts and system admins track the changes they are committing to Salesforce by using tools such as version control, continuous integration, continuous delivery, and testing automation.

The type of research that the business analyst should use to elicit user stories from UC’s customers is interviewing. Interviewing is a technique that involves asking open-ended questions to stakeholders or users to gather information and feedback about their needs, expectations, preferences, pain points, goals, etc. Interviewing helps to elicit user stories from UC’s customers by allowing them to express their opinions and experiences in their own words, as well as clarifying any doubts or ambiguities. Interviewing also helps to build rapport and trust with the customers and show them respect and appreciation for their input. References: https://trailhead.salesforce.com/content/learn/modules/salesforce-business-analyst-certification-prep/customer-discovery

A business analyst should use storytelling to communicate the vision for a Salesforce solution to business stakeholders by giving a perspective from a relatable persona that shows how the development team can solve their business challenges. This will help them empathize with the user’s needs and goals, and see how the solution will benefit them. Highlighting a perspective from testing feedback that identifies bugs and pain points in their business challenges may be discouraging or demotivating for the stakeholders. Describing a perspective from the business requirements document that addresses architectural concerns based on their business challenges may be too technical or abstract for the stakeholders. References: https://trailhead.salesforce.com/content/learn/modules/salesforce-business-analyst-certification-prep/collaboration-with-stakeholders

The Manage Sandbox permission is required to create, delete, refresh or activate a Sandbox. Sandbox Editor, Environment Manager, and System Administrator are not valid permissions in Salesforce. References: https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=sf.data_sandbox_manage.htm &type=5

This answer states that documenting the desired outcome and researching the impact of making a change are the next steps that the BA should take after receiving feedback from UC’s sales manager who customized all of their list views on the Account object to include a new field and realized they are unable to modify the recently viewed list. Documenting the desired outcome means that the BA records what the sales manager wants to achieve or accomplish by modifying the recently viewed list, such as filtering, sorting, or grouping by the new field. Researching the impact of making a change means that the BA investigates how modifying the recently viewed list would affect other aspects of UC’s Salesforce environment, such as performance, security, usability, etc. Documenting the desired outcome and researching the impact of making a change are the next steps that the BA should take after receiving feedback from UC’s sales manager because they help the BA to understand and validate the business need and expectation of the sales manager, and to evaluate and propose possible solutions or alternatives for modifying the recently viewed list. References: https://trailhead.salesforce.com/en/content/learn/modules/salesforce-business-analyst-quick-look/use-stakeholder-engagement-skills

This answer suggests observation and interviewing as methods to collect data for the BA to determine the cause and recommend a solution for UC’s sales challenge. Observation and interviewing are techniques that help the BA understand how users perform their tasks, what challenges they face, and what their needs and expectations are. Observation involves watching users in their natural environment, while interviewing involves asking users open-ended questions.

Selecting “Generate Passwords and notify the user via email.” is how the Admin can make sure a temporary password is generated when creating a new User. Selecting “Temporary Password and Confirmation Email Required” is not a valid option when creating a new User. There are temporary passwords available for setup of new users in Salesforce. This is a default feature, but it requires setup by selecting the correct option. References: https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=sf.users_add.htm &type=5

The first thing that the business analyst should do before a future state is proposed to key stakeholders is to hold a kickoff meeting to set expectations with the project team. A kickoff meeting is an important step in initiating a Salesforce project, as it helps to establish the project vision, goals, scope, roles, responsibilities, communication plan, and success criteria. A kickoff meeting also helps to build rapport and trust among the project team members, as well as identify any potential risks or issues that may affect the project delivery. References: https://trailhead.salesforce.com/content/learn/modules/salesforce-business-analyst-certification-prep/project-initiation

This answer states that change request log is what the BA should use to help them organize and prioritize requests for changes to Salesforce during UAT after receiving numerous emails from stakeholders who formally signed off on requirements. Change request log is a document or a file that records and tracks requests for changes to a project or a product, such as adding, modifying, or removing a feature or a functionality. Change request log is what the BA should use to help them organize and prioritize requests for changes to Salesforce during UAT because it helps the BA to manage and monitor the requests for changes, and to evaluate and approve or reject them based on their impact, urgency, or feasibility. References: https://trailhead.salesforce.com/en/content/learn/modules/salesforce-business-analyst-quick-look/use-stakeholder-engagement-skills

Strategy analysis is the process of identifying and evaluating the risks and benefits of a proposed solution, as well as its alignment with the business goals and objectives. A business analyst performs strategy analysis to understand the impact of a solution on the project timeline, budget, scope, quality, and stakeholders.

This answer states that bringing the requirement to the product owner’s attention is what the BA should do after discovering that several users indicate they use multi-factor authentication (MFA) on their phones to log in to existing systems while other users indicate they access existing systems with only username and password for conducting user interviews with the support team as part of a migration to Salesforce at Cloud Kicks. A product owner is a person who represents the voice of the customer or the stakeholder, and who is responsible for defining and prioritizing the requirements for a product or a project. Bringing the requirement to the product owner’s attention means that the BA informs and discusses with the product owner about the different preferences or expectations of users regarding MFA for logging in to Salesforce. Bringing the requirement to the product owner’s attention is what the BA should do after discovering this difference among users because it helps the BA to align and validate the requirement with the product owner, and to determine and propose a solution or an alternative for MFA for logging in to Salesforce. References: https://trailhead.salesforce.com/en/content/learn/modules/salesforce-business-analyst-quick-look/use-stakeholder-engagement-skills

The step of the application lifecycle management (ALM) cycle that requires the business analyst to study current business processes, gather requirements, and analyze them is plan. ALM is a process that helps manage changes to an application from planning to deployment and beyond. ALM has six steps: plan, develop, test, build release, test release, and release. The plan step is where the business analyst studies current business processes, gathers requirements, and analyzes them to understand what needs to be changed or improved in an application. The plan step also involves defining objectives, scope, budget, timeline, deliverables, roles and responsibilities for a project. The develop step is where developers create or modify code or declarative components based on the requirements gathered in the plan step. The test step is where testers verify that the code or declarative components work as expected and meet quality standards using various testing techniques and tools. The build release step is where developers package all code or declarative components into a release that can be deployed to other environments using various deployment techniques and tools. The test release step is where end users test the release in a sandbox or test environment to verify that it works as intended, and what was originally requested is actually being delivered. The release step is where the release is deployed to production and made available to end users.

The most appropriate subject matter expert (SME) to confirm the current business process and elicit deeper understanding of CK’s goals, opportunities, and pain points is the supply chain manager. The supply chain manager is responsible for overseeing the flow of goods from the warehouse to the customer, and has the most knowledge and insight into the current business process. The supply chain manager can also provide valuable feedback and suggestions for improving the business process and achieving the desired outcomes. The sales manager and the chief financial officer are not directly involved in the business process of moving orders from the warehouse to the customer, and may not have the same level of expertise or interest as the supply chain manager. References: Customer Discovery, Get Started with Salesforce Business Analyst Certification Prep, Cert Prep: Salesforce Business Analyst

This answer suggests researching third-party apps on the AppExchange as the next thing that the BA should do after a sales manager expresses frustration that the sales team is failing to enter calls in Salesforce, and hopes to resolve the issue quickly and has limited time and budget to complete revamp existing tools and process. The AppExchange is an online marketplace where customers can find, try, buy, and install apps that extend the functionality of Salesforce. Researching third-party apps on the AppExchange can help the BA to find a possible solution that can address the issue of entering calls in Salesforce without requiring a lot of time, budget, or customization. Researching third-party apps on the AppExchange can also help the BA to compare different features, prices, ratings, and reviews of various apps that can meet the sales manager’s needs and expectations.

 The acceptance criteria that is most appropriate for this user story is sales rep can see the inventory closest to a customer with a quick action. Acceptance criteria are specific conditions or requirements that must be met for a user story to be considered done or acceptable. Acceptance criteria should be clear, concise, testable, and measurable. Sales rep can see the inventory closest to a customer with a quick action is an appropriate acceptance criterion because it specifies what functionality or feature must be delivered (see the inventory closest to a customer), how it must be delivered (with a quick action), and who must be able to use it (sales rep). As a sales rep, I see the inventory closest to a customer is not an appropriate acceptance criterion because it does not specify how the functionality or feature must be delivered or accessed by the user. It is also redundant with the user story format of “as a [role], I want [what], so that [why]”. Sales rep can see the inventory closest to a customer is not an appropriate acceptance criterion because it does not specify how the functionality or feature must be delivered or accessed by the user. It is also vague and incomplete as it does not indicate what constitutes “closest” or how it is measured. References: https://trailhead.salesforce.com/en/content/learn/modules/salesforce-business-analyst-certification-prep/user-stories

The approach that the business analyst should take to begin this process is to schedule a meeting with stakeholders and create a journey map. A journey map is a tool that creates a visual representation of the steps or stages that a user goes through when interacting with a system or solution. A journey map helps to understand and document the user’s experience, needs, goals, pain points, emotions, and touchpoints across their entire lifecycle. A journey map also helps to identify any gaps or opportunities for improvement or innovation in the user journey. The business analyst should schedule a meeting with stakeholders and create a journey map by asking questions, collecting feedback, drawing diagrams, and validating information. Scheduling a meeting with stakeholders and creating a journey map helps to begin this process by engaging and involving them in defining and designing the new client onboarding process. References: https://trailhead.salesforce.com/content/learn/modules/salesforce-business-analyst-certification-prep/customer-discovery

The business analyst should confirm that the user stories are written effectively by checking that they can be easily prioritized and are small enough to estimate accurately. User stories are short and simple descriptions of a feature or functionality from the perspective of an end user or customer. User stories should follow the INVEST criteria, which stands for Independent, Negotiable, Valuable, Estimable, Small, and Testable. User stories that can be easily prioritized and are small enough to estimate accurately are more likely to meet the Estimable and Small criteria. Estimable means that a user story should have enough information and clarity to allow developers and testers to estimate the effort and time required to complete it. Small means that a user story should be simple and concise, and it should be able to be completed within a single sprint by a single developer or a small team. References: https://trailhead.salesforce.com/content/learn/modules/user-story-creation/write-user-stories

The next step that the business analyst should take is to review the user stories to ensure they are small, testable, and valuable. User stories are statements that capture a requirement or feature from an end user’s perspective. They should be small enough to be completed within a sprint, testable enough to be verified by acceptance criteria, and valuable enough to deliver benefits or outcomes for end users. Reviewing user stories can help UC understand why development and testing took more time than expected, and how to improve them for future sprints.Creating a SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats) analysis to understand why development and testing took more time is not a good next step because it is a strategic tool that evaluates the internal and external factors affecting a project or initiative, not a tactical tool that evaluates the quality or effectiveness of user stories. Moving the deployment date out so the teams have more time to work is not a good next step because it does not address the root cause of why development and testing took more time, and it may affect the project scope or budget. References: https://trailhead.salesforce.com/content/learn/modules/salesforce-business-analyst-certification-prep/user-stories https://trailhead.salesforce.com/content/learn/modules/salesforce-business-analyst-certification-prep/user-acceptance

This answer states that reviewing these user stories in the backlog at the next sprint retrospective is what the BA should do next after discovering that a few user stories are no longer needed for revamping the order management process at NTO. User stories are short descriptions of a feature or a functionality from a user’s perspective. Backlog is a list of user stories that need to be prioritized and completed for a project or a product. Sprint retrospective is a meeting or a workshop where the project team reviews and reflects on their performance and progress in the previous sprint. Reviewing these user stories in the backlog at the next sprint retrospective means that the BA discusses and evaluates these user stories with the project team to determine if they are still relevant, valuable, or feasible for revamping the order management process. Reviewing these user stories in the backlog at the next sprint retrospective is what the BA should do next after discovering that a few user stories are no longer needed because it helps the BA to update and maintain the backlog, and to ensure that the user stories align with the project scope and goals.

This answer provides an example of good acceptance criteria for the scenario of integrating Salesforce with the largest online professional network. Acceptance criteria are statements that define the conditions that a solution must meet to be accepted by the stakeholders or users. Acceptance criteria should be clear, concise, testable, and measurable. This answer meets these criteria by stating what a sales rep can do (view current information), where they can do it (in the Lead and Contact records), and how they can verify it (directly). References: https://trailhead.salesforce.com/en/content/learn/modules/salesforce-business-analyst-certification-prep/prepare-for-the-salesforce-business-analyst-certification-exam

This answer states that asking for specific examples to review is how the BA should respond to feedback from UC’s project manager who tells the BA that the developers on the team are having trouble understanding what to build because the acceptance criteria for the Sales Cloud user stories are confusing. Asking for specific examples to review means that the BA requests the project manager or the developers to provide concrete instances or scenarios of where and how the acceptance criteria for the Sales Cloud user stories are confusing, such as ambiguous, inconsistent, or incomplete acceptance criteria. Asking for specific examples to review is how the BA should respond to feedback from UC’s project manager because it helps the BA to clarify and verify the feedback, and to revise and update the acceptance criteria accordingly.

In creating a compelling demo, the storytelling technique is highly effective. This approach involves framing the demo narrative around a hero (typically the end-user), presenting a challenge they face, introducing the solution (the Salesforce functionality) as the helper, and showcasing the victory, which is the successful resolution of the challenge through the implemented functionality. This technique engages the audience by making the demonstration relatable and showing the practical value of the solution in a real-world context. It emphasizes the impact of the features on the users' daily tasks and how it addresses their specific needs.

This answer describes the steps involved in creating a customer journey map, which is a tool to visualize and improve the customer experience. A customer journey map helps to identify pain points, gaps, and opportunities for improvement in the current state, and design a future state that aligns with the business objectives and customer needs. References: https://trailhead.salesforce.com/en/content/learn/modules/customer-journey-basics/create-a-customer-journey-map

This answer suggests using live workshops to map out the sales process as the most effective activity for the BA to understand the sales process at CK. A live workshop is a collaborative session where the BA facilitates a group discussion with stakeholders or users to elicit information, generate ideas, or solve problems. A live workshop can help the BA map out the sales process by engaging participants in creating a visual representation of the process, identifying pain points and opportunities, and reaching a consensus on the current state. References: https://trailhead.salesforce.com/en/content/learn/modules/salesforce-business-analyst-quick-look/use-live-workshops-to-collaborate

The best practice for handling an urgent, high-priority change request in Scrum is to add it to the prioritized backlog for the next sprint. This way, the change request can be reviewed by the product owner and estimated by the development team before being added to a sprint. Adding a change request to an ongoing sprint would disrupt the planned scope and schedule of work.

This answer states that violating the definition of done is the principle of Agile methodology that this situation violates for completing UAT of a solution at Universal Containers. Agile methodology is an approach to software development that emphasizes delivering value to customers in short iterations or sprints, and responding to changing requirements with flexibility and collaboration. Definition of done is a criterion or a checklist that specifies when a user story or a task is considered complete and ready for deployment or delivery. Violating the definition of done means that the BA accepts a user story or a task as done without ensuring that it meets all the quality standards or acceptance criteria agreed upon by the project team. References: https://trailhead.salesforce.com/en/content/learn/modules/agile-basics/agile-basics-done

The tool that would help UC understand the existing functionality of all of its reporting tools is a capability model. A capability model is a visual representation of the core capabilities or functions that an organization performs or delivers to achieve its strategic objectives. A capability model helps to identify and organize high-level process areas that span across different departments or teams, as well as highlight any gaps or overlaps in functionality. A capability model can also help to prioritize and scope Salesforce projects based on business value and impact.

In this case, UC can use a capability model to map out all of its reporting tools by their capabilities or functions, such as data sources, data integration, data analysis, data visualization, data sharing, etc. This would help UC understand what each reporting tool can do or provide, how they relate or differ from each other, and where there may be redundancies or inefficiencies in their reporting processes. References: https://trailhead.salesforce.com/content/learn/modules/salesforce-business-analyst-certification-prep/business-process-mapping

One benefit of using UPN in this scenario is that a single activity box can answer Who, What, When, Why, and How. UPN is a notation system that helps to create simple and clear process maps using activity boxes and arrows. An activity box represents a step or task in a process, and contains five elements: Who (the role or actor who performs the task), What (the name or description of the task), When (the trigger or condition that initiates the task), Why (the purpose or goal of the task), and How (the method or tool used to perform the task). By using a single activity box to answer Who, What, When, Why, and How, UPN helps to provide a concise and comprehensive view of each step or task in a process, and avoid confusion or ambiguity. The other options are either incorrect or irrelevant. Option A is incorrect because UPN recommends using no more than 10 activity boxes per process map to avoid complexity and clutter. Option C is irrelevant because UPN does not use different shapes to represent key parts of a process, but rather uses different colors to indicate different levels of detail.

The business analyst should review the version control history to understand which user stories were modified by the project lead. Version control is a system that records changes to a file or set of files over time so that you can recall specific versions later. Version control can help track who made what changes, when, and why. It can also help compare different versions, merge changes, resolve conflicts, and restore previous versions. The business analyst should use a version control system to store and manage their user stories in a repository and review the version control history to see the edits made by the project lead. Reviewing the approval history is not a good option because it would only show who approved or rejected the user stories, not who modified them or how. Reviewing the change sets history is not a good option because it would only show what metadata components were deployed or retrieved between orgs, not what user stories were modified or how. References: https://trailhead.salesforce.com/en/content/learn/modules/org-development-model/get-to-know-org-development

This answer provides an example of how to construct the user story for creating a new picklist field called “Lost Reason” on the Opportunity object with the goal of improving pipeline reports, using this format: As a , I want , so that . This answer defines the persona as “sales leader”, who is likely to be one of the main users or beneficiaries of this feature. It also defines the goal as “see more details on Closed/Lost Opportunities”, which is what they want to accomplish with this feature. Finally, it defines the value as “help the sales team improve close rates”, which is why they want to accomplish this goal and how they will measure success. References: https://trailhead.salesforce.com/en/content/learn/modules/salesforce-business-analyst-quick-look/use-user-stories-to-capture-requirements

This answer states that conducting multiple dry runs is the additional activity that is most likely to result in a successful sprint demo for demonstrating some new Sales Cloud functionality for a project’s stakeholders at Cloud Kicks. A dry run is a practice or a rehearsal of a presentation or a demonstration before the actual event. Conducting multiple dry runs means that the BA performs and repeats the presentation or the demonstration of the new Sales Cloud functionality several times before showing it to the project’s stakeholders. Conducting multiple dry runs is the additional activity that is most likely to result in a successful sprint demo because it helps the BA to prepare and polish their presentation or demonstration skills, to identify and fix any errors or issues in the new Sales Cloud functionality, and to anticipate and address any questions or feedback from the project’s stakeholders.

The business analyst should do to gain the necessary buy-in and support from the sales team to ensure a solution meets the requirements is to ask questions to understand their needs and focus on shared goals. Asking questions is an elicitation technique that allows the business analyst to gather information, clarify assumptions, or validate understanding from stakeholders. It can help the business analyst understand the sales team’s doubts or concerns about the new tool, and address them with empathy or evidence. Focusing on shared goals is a collaboration technique that aligns stakeholders on a common vision or outcome for a project or initiative. It can help the business analyst show how the new tool will benefit the sales team and meet their expectations or needs. Presenting the pros and cons of the decision by using logic and facts may not be an effective way to gain buy-in and support from the sales team because it may not address their emotional or psychological barriers or resistance to change. Demonstrating expertise and clearly stating the decision is final may not be an effective way to gain buy-in and support from the sales team because it may not involve them in the decision-making process or respect their opinions or feedback.

According to the Salesforce Business Analyst Certification Prep, the business analyst’s role in user acceptance is to facilitate the feedback loop between the development team and the business stakeholders1. The BA should log any issues or change requests that are identified during the UAT sessions and prioritize them according to the project scope and timeline1. A misspelled column name is a minor defect that should be logged as a bug and fixed before the release2. Adding five additional fields to the report is a new requirement that should be logged as an enhancement and evaluated for the next sprint or release3. The BA should thank the stakeholder for their feedback and communicate the status of their requests1. References: Salesforce Certified Business Analyst Exam Questions, Salesforce Business Analyst Certification Practice Quiz and Sample Questions, Explore User Acceptance Unit

The business analyst should do in the first discovery meeting with stakeholders is to collaborate with stakeholders to examine and define CK’s purpose, customers, metrics, and overall business to inform project direction and vision. Discovery is a phase of a Salesforce project that aims to understand the current state of a business, identify its problems or needs, and define its goals or desired outcomes. In the first discovery meeting, the business analyst should work with stakeholders to establish a common understanding of CK’s business context, such as its mission, vision, values, customers, competitors, performance indicators, etc. This can help the business analyst align stakeholders on a shared vision and strategy for the Salesforce implementation.Discussing and documenting specific pain points in existing processes may be part of discovery, but not in the first meeting. The business analyst should first understand the big picture of CK’s business before diving into the details of its processes.Previewing potential Salesforce solutions and collecting feedback from stakeholders may be part of discovery, but not in the first meeting. The business analyst should first understand the problems or needs of CK’s business before proposing any solutions.

The type of requirement documentation that the business analyst is using in this scenario is process mapping. Process mapping is a technique that involves creating a visual diagram of the steps or activities involved in completing a business process or workflow. Process mapping helps to document how users perform their daily work in Salesforce, what inputs and outputs they use or produce, what decisions they make, and what roles or systems they interact with. Process mapping also helps to identify any inefficiencies, bottlenecks, redundancies, or risks in the existing process, as well as opportunities for improvement or optimization.

A virtual whiteboard is a technique that a business analyst can use to optimize effectiveness and build a shared understanding of an idea and approach with sales users in various locations. A virtual whiteboard is an online tool that allows multiple participants to collaborate visually by drawing, writing, or annotating on a shared screen. It can help them brainstorm ideas, create diagrams, or give feedback in real time. A demo prototype is a technique that can be used to show how an idea works or looks like, but not to collaborate on it. One-on-one meetings are techniques that can be used to communicate with individual stakeholders, but not with a group.

This answer states that scheduling a one-on-one meeting with the new employee to get an alternative perspective from a beginner’s mind is what the BA should do when responding to the new employee’s input. A beginner’s mind is a mindset that is open, curious, and eager to learn, without any preconceptions or biases. A beginner’s mind can help the BA to discover new insights, ideas, or opportunities that might otherwise be overlooked or dismissed by more experienced or knowledgeable stakeholders. Scheduling a one-on-one meeting with the new employee can help the BA to listen to their input, understand their perspective, and appreciate their contribution.

A functional requirements specification is a document that describes the software and behavioral requirements of an application, such as what features it should have and how it should behave under different scenarios. It can help communicate the expectations and needs of the stakeholders to the development team. A scope statement specification is a document that defines the project scope, objectives, deliverables, assumptions, constraints, and exclusions. It does not describe the software and behavioral requirements of an application. A system requirements specification is a document that describes the technical requirements of an application, such as hardware, software, security, performance, and reliability. It does not describe the software and behavioral requirements of an application. References: 1 https://trailhead.salesforce.com/en/content/learn/modules/salesforce-business-analyst-certification-prep/requirements

The business analyst should use the output from the Salesforce Optimizer tool to identify top project priorities. Salesforce Optimizer is a tool that analyzes a Salesforce org and provides recommendations and best practices for improving performance, security, usability, and maintenance. Salesforce Optimizer generates a report that highlights any issues or risks in the org, such as unused fields, inactive users, complex sharing rules, etc., as well as suggests actions for resolving them. The business analyst should use the output from the Salesforce Optimizer tool to identify top project priorities by reviewing the report and ranking or ordering the issues or risks based on their impact, urgency, dependency, or value. The business analyst should also communicate and align with the stakeholders on the project priorities and scope. References: https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=sf.optimizer.htm &type=5

The project team needs to agree upon a definition of done to ensure that the work is ready to be deployed. A definition of done is a set of criteria that determines when a user story is completed and ready for deployment. It typically includes technical, functional, and quality aspects of the user story, such as code quality, unit testing, documentation, performance, security, and usability. A definition of done helps to ensure that the work meets the expected standards and quality, satisfies the user’s needs and expectations, and aligns with the project goals and scope. References: https://trailhead.salesforce.com/en/content/learn/modules/business-analysis-user-stories/define-done

The business analyst should include a high-level description of required functionality in the requirements for Sales Cloud implementation. A high-level description of required functionality is a brief and general statement that describes what a system or solution must do or provide to meet a business need or goal. A high-level description of required functionality helps to capture and communicate the scope and value of a requirement or feature. The business analyst should include a high-level description of required functionality in the requirements for Sales Cloud implementation by using clear and concise language, avoiding technical jargon or details, and focusing on outcomes rather than solutions. References: https://trailhead.salesforce.com/content/learn/modules/salesforce-business-analyst-certification-prep/requirements-management

The business analyst should log a defect for the page layout change and discuss it with the DevOps team to address the issue of one of the minor changes to the Account page layout for the project being missing. A defect is an error or flaw in an application that causes it to deviate from its expected behavior or result. Logging a defect for the page layout change can help document the issue, its impact, and its priority, and assign it to someone responsible for fixing it. Discussing it with the DevOps team can help understand why the change was missing, how it can be resolved, and when it can be deployed. Making the page layout change directly in UAT so the client can begin testing is not a good option because it would bypass the development process, create inconsistency among environments, and introduce potential risks or errors. Asking the project manager to reschedule UAT until after the defect is resolved is not a good option because it would delay the testing schedule, impact the project timeline, and reduce customer satisfaction.

This answer states that following these steps is the process that the BA should follow to draft and finalize the requirements for implementing a new Service Cloud feature for Cloud Kicks. Reviewing information from the discovery means that the BA revisits the information or data that was collected during the discovery phase, such as business goals, stakeholder needs, pain points, opportunities, etc. Asking clarifying questions means that the BA seeks to understand and verify the information or data that was collected, and to resolve any ambiguities or conflicts among them. Drafting requirements means that the BA writes down the statements that describe what the solution must do or have to meet the business goals and stakeholder needs. Refining and confirming requirements means that the BA revises and validates the requirements with the stakeholders, and ensures that they are clear, concise, consistent, and complete. Prioritizing which requirements will be included in the minimum viable product means that the BA determines which requirements are essential or desirable for delivering a solution that provides value to the stakeholders, and which requirements can be deferred or excluded from the scope. References: https://trailhead.salesforce.com/en/content/learn/modules/salesforce-business-analyst-quick-look/use-user-stories-to-capture-requirements

The best practice that the BA should follow is to schedule additional discovery sessions with the sales users to understand what will be impacted by the changes. Discovery sessions are meetings or workshops where the BA elicits, clarifies, and validates the needs, expectations, pain points, goals, and priorities of the stakeholders for a project. Discovery sessions help to gather more information and feedback from the stakeholders, understand their perspectives and preferences, identify the gaps and opportunities in their current process, and demonstrate the value and benefits of the proposed solution. By scheduling additional discovery sessions with the sales users, the BA can better understand their challenges and requirements, and document a comprehensive list of the components that will be affected by the updated flow. References: https://trailhead.salesforce.com/en/content/learn/modules/business-analysis-discovery/plan-and-facilitate-discovery-sessions

The process of prioritizing the business backlog should be owned by the business teams affected, with support from the internal technology teams who understand ways to maximize Salesforce’s declarative features. The business backlog is a list of requirements or user stories that describe the features or functionality that the business needs or wants from a project or enhancement. The business backlog should be prioritized by the business teams affected because they are the ones who have the most knowledge and interest in the business value and impact of each requirement or user story. The business backlog should also be supported by the internal technology teams who understand ways to maximize Salesforce’s declarative features because they are the ones who have the most knowledge and expertise in the technical feasibility and complexity of each requirement or user story. References: https://trailhead.salesforce.com/content/learn/modules/salesforce-business-analyst-certification-prep/requirements-management

The persona that should be listed in this user story is sales rep. A persona is a fictional representation of a user role or group who will benefit from a feature or functionality. It helps describe who the user is, what they want or need, and why they want or need it. The persona should be specific enough to capture the characteristics and goals of the user group, but not too specific that it excludes other potential users. The persona that should be listed in this user story is sales rep because they are the ones who want to capture the names of the contact’s spouse and children to help build the relationship. Contact is not a persona that should be listed in this user story because they are not the ones who will use or benefit from this feature or functionality. They are the object of the feature or functionality, not the subject. Service rep is not a persona that should be listed in this user story because they are not the ones who want or need this feature or functionality. They may have different goals or expectations than sales reps when it comes to contact management.

The type of inefficiency that is happening during this step in the process is manual effort. Manual effort is a type of inefficiency that occurs when a task or activity requires human intervention or input that could be automated or eliminated. Manual effort can lead to errors, delays, inconsistencies, or redundancies in the process. In this case, the representatives are inputting contract information from PDF documents into Salesforce manually, which introduces errors and inaccurate data into Salesforce.

A user story is a short description of a feature or functionality from the perspective of an end user. It follows the format “As a , I want , so that ”. The who is the user role or persona who will benefit from the feature or functionality. The what is the feature or functionality that the user wants or needs. The why is the benefit or value that the user will get from the feature or functionality. The when and where are not part of a user story format because they are usually captured in other documents or artifacts, such as acceptance criteria or wireframes.

This answer states that conducting elicitation with stakeholders regarding their parts of the process is what the BA should do to close the gaps or confirm the process steps after conducting a group workshop with stakeholders to understand and document in-scope business processes. Elicitation is a technique that involves asking questions, gathering information, or observing behaviors to understand the needs, expectations, and goals of the stakeholders or users. Conducting elicitation with stakeholders can help the BA to clarify any ambiguities, resolve any conflicts, verify any assumptions, and validate any information regarding their parts of the process.

This answer states that engaging in a live process modeling exercise with the service team is what the BA should do to best understand and document the current state and recommend a future state for addressing a recent group of complaints from UC’s service team about automated case assignments in Service Cloud. A live process modeling exercise is an activity where the BA works with the service team members to create and validate a visual representation of how they perform their tasks or activities related to case assignments in Service Cloud. A live process modeling exercise can help the BA to best understand and document the current state by capturing and verifying the inputs, outputs, steps, decisions, roles, etc. of case assignments in Service Cloud from different perspectives and sources of information. A live process modeling exercise can also help the BA to recommend a future state by identifying and prioritizing the gaps or issues in case assignments in Service Cloud, and by proposing and evaluating possible improvements or solutions for them.

The action that the business analyst should take to quickly introduce new functionality to impress the customer is to demo standard features and elicit feedback from the customer. Demoing standard features means showing the customer how Sales Cloud can provide out-of-the-box functionality that meets their needs or expectations without requiring extensive customization or development. Eliciting feedback means asking the customer for their opinions or suggestions on how Sales Cloud can improve their sales process or performance. Demoing standard features and eliciting feedback helps to quickly introduce new functionality to impress the customer by demonstrating the value and benefits of Sales Cloud, as well as engaging and involving the customer in the solution design and delivery. References: https://trailhead.salesforce.com/content/learn/modules/salesforce-business-analyst-certification-prep/customer-discovery

A business analyst is responsible for creating user training materials that explain how to use the new case management solution. The training materials should include screenshots, videos, diagrams, and step-by-step instructions that cover the key features and functionalities of the solution. The business analyst should also ensure that the training materials are aligned with the user stories and requirements.

The technique that the business analyst is using to understand UC’s structure is stakeholder analysis. Stakeholder analysis is a technique that involves identifying, analyzing, and engaging the individuals or groups who have an interest or influence in the project outcome, such as customers, users, sponsors, managers, team members, etc. Stakeholder analysis helps to understand the functions, interactions, and reporting relationships of each stakeholder group, as well as their needs, expectations, priorities, and concerns. Stakeholder analysis also helps to plan how to communicate, collaborate, and manage the stakeholders throughout the project lifecycle. References: https://trailhead.salesforce.com/content/learn/modules/salesforce-business-analyst-certification-prep/stakeholder-management

The type of documentation that the business analyst should utilize to better understand business processes so they can accurately scope the project is current state analysis. Current state analysis is a technique that involves assessing and documenting how a business process or workflow is currently performed in an organization. Current state analysis helps to establish a baseline for measuring the current state of performance, identify pain points and opportunities for improvement, and align with the desired business outcomes. Current state analysis can be done using tools such as interviews, observations, surveys, or process maps.

A challenge is an element of the storytelling process for UX that describes a hurdle that makes it difficult for your heroes to succeed on their journeys. A monster is an element of the storytelling process for UX that describes a person or thing that causes problems for your heroes. A victory is an element of the storytelling process for UX that describes a successful outcome for your heroes. A helper is an element of the storytelling process for UX that describes a person or thing that assists your heroes along their journeys.

The user story should focus on customer experience. Customer experience is the perception and feeling that a customer has when interacting with a product or service. Customer experience is a key factor that influences customer satisfaction, loyalty, retention, and advocacy. A user story should focus on customer experience because it helps to define the value or benefit that the customer expects from the product or service, and provides a basis for designing and developing the solution that meets or exceeds the customer’s needs and expectations. The other options are either irrelevant or incomplete. Option A does not focus on customer experience, but rather on sales margins, which are an internal metric that may not reflect the customer’s perception or feeling. Option C does not focus on customer experience, but rather on product functionality, which is only one aspect of customer experience and may not address the customer’s emotional or psychological needs. References: https://trailhead.salesforce.com/en/content/learn/modules/business-analysis-user-stories/write-user-stories

The missing component necessary to finish this user story is why because it describes the benefit or value that sales reps will get from having visibility into their pipeline revenue (such as forecasting sales performance or identifying opportunities). The who part of this user story is “sales reps” because it describes the user role or persona who will benefit from this feature or functionality. The what part of this user story is “visibility into sales rep’ pipeline” because it describes the feature or functionality that sales reps want or need.

The business analyst should prioritize US-4007 and US-4009 because they are the most critical work items. US-4007 is the work item that will allow customers to submit support tickets, and US-4009 is the work item that will allow customer service representatives to view and respond to support tickets. These two work items are essential for the MVP to be functional.

US-4008 is a less critical work item because it will allow customers to track the status of their support tickets. This work item is important, but it is not essential for the MVP to be functional.

US-4010 is the least critical work item because it will allow customers to rate the quality of customer service. This work item is important, but it is not essential for the MVP to be functional.

In conclusion, the business analyst should prioritize US-4007 and US-4009 because they are the most critical work items. These two work items are essential for the MVP to be functional.

A gap analysis is a document that compares the current state with the desired future state of a process or system, identifies what needs to change or improve, and recommends actions or solutions to bridge the gap. A gap analysis can help CK understand how to enhance its user experience for customer service agents on Service Cloud so they can effectively meet their service-level agreements. A change management document is a document that outlines how changes will be planned, implemented, communicated, monitored, controlled, etc., during a project lifecycle

When a business analyst learns that another team also needs email integration in the near future, they should include that team during discovery. This is because including all relevant stakeholders early in the project can help to identify common needs, avoid duplication of work, leverage synergies, and deliver value faster. The business analyst should invite the operations team to participate in discovery activities such as interviews, surveys, workshops, observations, etc., and capture their requirements, expectations, and feedback. The business analyst should also communicate the project scope, timeline, and risks to both teams and manage any changes or issues that may arise.

This answer states that reviewing the services team’s goals, initiatives, strategies, and obstacles is what the BA should do to determine if the current solution of implementing an Experience Site that allows customers to view Knowledge articles and submit cases is adding value to UC’s business. Goals are what the services team wants to achieve or accomplish in terms of business outcomes or benefits. Initiatives are what the services team plans to do or implement to achieve their goals. Strategies are how the services team executes or delivers their initiatives. Obstacles are what prevents or hinders the services team from achieving their goals, implementing their initiatives, or executing their strategies. Reviewing the services team’s goals, initiatives, strategies, and obstacles means that the BA analyzes and documents these elements related to implementing an Experience Site that allows customers to view Knowledge articles and submit cases. Reviewing the services team’s goals, initiatives, strategies, and obstacles is what the BA should do to determine if the current solution is adding value to UC’s business because it helps the BA to measure and evaluate the performance and impact of the current solution against these elements.
